How Robin Williams cheered up Steven Spielberg when he was directing ‘Schindler’s List’
Robin Williams called him every week to cheer him up while he was filming his 1993 Holocaust movie, “Schindler’s List.”Spielberg’s friendship with Williams stretched back to “Hook,” the 1991 flick that Spielberg directed and featured Williams as an adult Peter Pan.Spielberg opened up about “Schindler’s List,” and several other topics, in a wide-ranging interview in the Hollywood Reporter to talk about the 30th anniversary of the movie, which was filmed in Krakow, Poland, in 1993.The movie, which won seven Oscars at the 66th Academy Awards in 1994 — including Best Picture and Best Director (for Spielberg) — told the story of German industrialist Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson), who saved thousands of Jews from the Nazis during the Holocaust by employing them in his factories.“Robin knew how hard it was for me on the movie, and once a week, every Friday, he’d call me on the phone and do comedy for me,” Spielberg said.“Whether it was after 10 minutes or 20 minutes, when he heard me give the biggest laugh, he’d hang up on me.”Neeson also remembered Williams’ Friday phone calls to Spielberg.“Steven would tell us afterward the sorts of things Robin would say,” Neeson recalled. “Once he started a riff of ‘I’m not a Nazi, I’m a nutsy,’ all this sort of s – – t.”Williams, the comedically brilliant “Mork & Mindy” star and Oscar-winning actor (“Good Will Hunting”), died by suicide in 2014 at the age of 63.Spielberg said that shooting “Schindler’s List” took its toll on him, emotionally.“The hard days were beyond my imagination and the easy days were never easy,” he told THR.

Martin Scorcese suggests Oscars flop ‘Shutter Island’ was a mistake
Martin Scorcese has suggested in an interview that he regrets his decision to direct Shutter Island, the mystery thriller that came out in 2010.READ MORE:‘Killers Of The Flower Moon’ review: Martin Scorsese’s heartbreaking true crime chillerAhead of the release of his upcoming eighth collaboration with Leonardo DiCaprio, Killers Of The Flower Moon, Scorcese revealed to GQ that he now thinks Shutter Island may not have been the right project for him at the time.Scorcese’s success at the Oscars with The Departed in 2007, sending him home with the award for Best Director, “encouraged [him] to make another picture with Shutter Island.” But the nine-time Oscar nominated director said that at this point, he perhaps should have picked something else instead.He told GQ, “It turned out I should have gone on probably to do Silence,” referring to his 2016 historical drama starring Liam Neeson, Adam Driver and Andrew Garfield. The movie was not one of Scorcese’s great successes, making a loss at the box office, however it has been seen as a great “passion project” of his.Shutter Island, the 2010 psychological thriller about a remote psychiatric facility which saw Scorcese collaborating with DiCaprio for the fourth time was received well at the time and became his second highest grossing film worldwide following Taxi Driver.However, it received no Academy Award nominations at the 2011 ceremony, making it the director’s only feature film released in the last 20 years to have received no Oscar recognition.Scorcese also shared with GQ that he viewed Shutter Island, released by Paramount Pictures, as “the last studio film I made,” with his recent projects being funded independently.
