Steven Spielberg to Receive HFPA's Cecil B. DeMille Award at 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards to Be Telecast Live on NBC on Jan. 13

HOLLYWOOD, CA--(Marketwire - November 14, 2007) - Steven Spielberg will be honored at next January's Golden Globe Awards telecast with the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his "outstanding contribution to the entertainment field." The award, voted by the Board of Directors of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, was announced today at a morning press conference by Josh Brolin.

The DeMille Award will be presented to Spielberg at "The 65th Annual Golden Globe Awards" to be held Sunday, January 13, 2008 and telecast live on NBC (8-11 pm EST).

Spielberg has received six Golden Globes; for Best Director for "Schindler's List" and "Saving Private Ryan," for Best Motion Picture (Drama) for "E.T., The Extra-Terrestrial," "Schindler's List," and "Saving Private Ryan"; and for Best Foreign Language Film For "Letters From Iwo Jima." He received 12 additional Golden Globe nominations; eight as Best Director for "Jaws," "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," "Raiders of the Lost Ark," "E.T., The Extra-Terrestrial," "The Color Purple," "Amistad," "A.I.: Artificial Intelligence" and "Munich," three as a producer on Best Motion Picture (Drama) nominees "The Color Purple," "Empire of the Sun," and "Amistad," and one for his screenplay for "Close Encounters of the Third Kind."

Recent Cecil B. DeMille winners include Warren Beatty (2007), Anthony Hopkins (2006), Robin Williams (2005), Michael Douglas (2004), Gene Hackman (2003), Harrison Ford (2002), Al Pacino (2001), and Barbra Streisand (2000).

Steven Spielberg is a principal partner of DreamWorks Studios, which he co-founded with Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen in October 1994 and which was sold to Paramount Pictures in early 2006. Under their leadership, DreamWorks has enjoyed critical and commercial success, and has been responsible for some of the most honored films in recent years, including three consecutive Best Picture Academy Award® winners: "American Beauty," "Gladiator," and "A Beautiful Mind" (the latter two co-productions with Universal). In 2007, DreamWorks had four consecutive films open #1 at the box office, including "Norbit," "Blades of Glory," "Disturbia," and "Transformers," which alone has grossed over $700 million worldwide.

One of the industry's most successful and influential filmmakers, Spielberg has directed, produced, or executive produced some of the top-grossing films of all time, including "Jurassic Park" and "E.T., The Extra-Terrestrial." Among his myriad honors, he is a three-time Academy Award® winner, earning two Oscars® for Best Director and Best Picture for "Schindler's List," and a third Oscar® for Best Director for "Saving Private Ryan."

A DreamWorks/Paramount co-production, the critically acclaimed World War II drama "Saving Private Ryan," starring Tom Hanks, was the highest-grossing release (domestically) of 1998. It was also one of the year's most honored films, earning five Oscars®, including the one for Spielberg as Best Director, as well as two Golden Globe Awards for Best Picture (Drama) and Best Director. Spielberg was also recognized by his peers with a Directors Guild of America (DGA) Award, and shared with the film's other producers in the Producers Guild of America's (PGA) Darryl F. Zanuck Award for Theatrical Motion Picture Producer of the Year. That year, the PGA also presented Spielberg with the prestigious Milestone Award for his historic contribution to the motion picture industry.

"Saving Private Ryan" also won Best Picture honors from the New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Toronto, British and Broadcast Film Critics Associations, with the Los Angeles, Toronto and Broadcast Film Critics also naming Spielberg Best Director.

In 1994, Spielberg won two Academy Awards®, for Best Director and Best Picture, for the internationally lauded "Schindler's List," which received a total of seven Oscars®. The film also collected Best Picture honors from the major critics organizations, in addition to seven BAFTA Awards, including two for Spielberg. He also won the Golden Globe Award and received his second DGA Award.

Spielberg won his first DGA Award for his work on "The Color Purple." He has also been honored with Academy Award® nominations for Best Director for "Munich," "E.T., The Extra-Terrestrial," "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." Additionally, he earned DGA Award nominations for those films, as well as "Empire of the Sun," "Jaws" and "Amistad." With ten in all, Spielberg has received more DGA Award nominations than any director in history, and, in 2000, he received the DGA's Lifetime Achievement Award. He is also the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award from the American Film Institute, the prestigious Irving G. Thalberg Award from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and the Kennedy Center Honor.

Spielberg is currently in post-production on "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" which stars Harrison Ford, Cate Blanchett and Shia LaBeouf, and will be released in theaters worldwide May 22, 2008. In 2006, Spielberg produced two films with director/producer Clint Eastwood -- "Flags of Our Fathers," nominated for two Academy Awards, and its companion film, "Letters From Iwo Jima," which was nominated for four Oscars including Best Picture. In 2005, Spielberg directed two films -- "War of the Worlds" and "Munich" -- and was a producer on, "Memoirs of a Geisha." "War of the Worlds" starred Tom Cruise and was a contemporary retelling of H.G. Wells' classis futuristic novel. "Munich," a historical thriller set in the aftermath of the 1972 massacre of 11 Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics, earned five Academy Award® nominations including Best Picture and Best Director for Spielberg. The Universal/DreamWorks co-production starred Eric Bana, Daniel Craig, and Geoffrey Rush. "Memoirs of a Geisha," directed by Rob Marshall and based on the best-selling book by Arthur Golden, won three Oscars® for Best Cinematography, Art Direction and Costume Design. Spielberg's other recent films include "The Terminal," starring Tom Hanks and Catherine Zeta-Jones, and "Catch Me If You Can," starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hanks. Spielberg also wrote, directed and produced "A.I.," which was realized from the vision of the late Stanley Kubrick. In 2000, Spielberg won the Stanley Kubrick Brittania Award for Excellence in Film, presented by BAFTA - Los Angeles.

Born on December 18, 1946, in Cincinnati, Ohio, Spielberg was raised in the suburbs of Haddonfield, New Jersey and Scottsdale, Arizona. He started making amateur films while still in his teens, later studying film at California State University, Long Beach. In 1969, his 22-minute short "Amblin" was shown at the Atlanta Film Festival, which led to his becoming the youngest director ever to be signed to a long-term deal with a major Hollywood studio.

Four years later, he directed the suspenseful telefilm "Duel," which garnered both critical and audience attention. He made his feature film directorial debut on "The Sugarland Express" from a screenplay he co-wrote. His other earlier film credits as director include "Always," "Hook," and the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" sequels "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" and "Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade."

In 1984, Spielberg formed his own production company, Amblin Entertainment. Under the Amblin banner, he has served as producer or executive producer on more than a dozen films, including such successes as "Gremlins," "Goonies," "Back to the Future I, II, and III," "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?," "An American Tail," "The Land Before Time," "The Flintstones," "Casper," "Twister," "The Mask of Zorro," "Men in Black" and "Men in Black II." Amblin Entertainment also produces the hit series "ER" with Warner Bros. TV.

Spielberg's other TV endeavors include executive producing with Tom Hanks the award-winning miniseries "Band of Brothers" for HBO and DreamWorks Television. Based on the book of the same name by the late Stephen Ambrose, the fact-based World War II project won both Emmy and Golden Globe Awards for Best Miniseries. Also an Emmy winner for Best Miniseries was 2002's "Taken" which Spielberg executive produced for DreamWorks Television and The Sci-Fi Channel. In 2005, Spielberg and DreamWorks Television partnered with TNT to executive produce the 12-hour limited series "Into the West" which followed two multi-generational American and Native American families with each telling the dramatic stories of the development of the West from their distinct points of view.

Spielberg has also devoted his time and resources to many philanthropic causes. The impact of his experience making "Schindler's List," led him to establish the Righteous Persons Foundation using all his profits from the film. He also founded Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation, which has recorded more than 52,000 Holocaust survivor testimonies. Spielberg executive produced "The Last Days," the Shoah Foundation's third documentary, which won the Academy Award® in 1999 for Best Documentary Feature. In 2005, the Foundation's repository of testimonies were transferred to the University of Southern California. The new USC Shoah Foundation Institute for Visual History and Education will be dedicated to research and scholarship in the humanities and social sciences. In addition, Spielberg is the chairman emeritus of the Starlight Starbright Children's Foundation, which combines the efforts of pediatric health care, technology and entertainment to empower seriously ill children.

Vamos, que ya esta dado el primer globo de oro y va para el tio Estevan. Bastante merecido yo creo por una carrera que habla por si sola. Felicidades, Steven.

El resto de las nominaciones seran anunciadas el 13 de diciembre y la ceremonia se celebrara el 13 de enero, un mes mas tarde( si la huelga de guionistas lo permite).

Con tanto spilbergriano en estos foros, esta noticia hara las delicias de algunos. Con este globo de oro honorifico, spielberg se une al selecto club que lo ha recibido: Warren Beatty, Robin Williams, Anthony Hopkins, Al Pacino, Paul Newman, Jack Nicholson, Michael Douglas, Harrison Ford, Dustin Hoffman, Gene Hackman, Shirley Maclaine, Barbra Streissand, Henry Fonda, Elizabeth Taylor, y un largo etc.

Si Robin Williams tiene ya uno y todo!!!!!! ¿Por qué se lo dieron? Pregunto, no va con indirecta por el tema de Hook y su interpretación que se ha hablado en el Spielbergpost.

Por una vez y sin que sirva de precedente en este caso estoy absuelto de indirectas crueles e ironias provocadoras. Es una simple coincidencia.

Me he quedado un poco a cuadros, siempre había entendido los premios honoríficos como premios "a toda una carrera" cuando su ganador está en las últimas (ya sé que no es así, hay casos de gente que ha ganado premios despues de recibir honorífico), pero nunca me había imaginado que se lo dieran a alguien que tiene tantas posibilidades de llevarse unos cuantos más de aquí hasta que la palme.

Se lo merece. :palmas

La verdad es que uno no sabe porque dan estos premios: porque le queda poco tiempo ya, porque se lo merece, por toda una carrera, porque está retirado...

Habiendo tanto genio sin premios, darle este a Spielberg se antoja una redundancia.

el año que viene me parece que le toca a Burton :cortina

Ese premio dentro de 20 años SÍ, ahora no.
Pero que podemos esperar de los Golden Globes... ¿alguien les da importancia?

Darle un premio a Spielberg por toda su carrera cuando todavía está en plena forma y realizando películas tan brillantes como "Munich" y como sin duda será el cuarto Indiana Jones, me parece precipitadísimo. Qué harán cuando tenga 85 años y retirado? (si es que alguna vez se retira), tendrán que crear una nueva categoría todavía más "honorífica" que el "premio honorífico" para volvérselo a dar?

Por supuesto que Spielberg se merece todos los premios que le quieran dar y más, pero si le quieren dar uno por toda su trayectoria, que se lo den cuando dicha trayectoria esté o finalizando o directamente finalizada, pero no cuando todavía está en pleno apogeo. Que (afortunadamente) nos queda Steven para muchos años todavía, demonios!!! :agradable

Un saludo

A lo peor saben algo que nosotros no sabemos. :ein2

Joer, qué mal rollo solo de pensarlo.

Es curioso, cuando un cineasta empieza a recibir premios es cuando su cine ya esta muerto. No falla!:cuniao

Aquí sí falla. :cafe

Si los premios nunca había que tenerlos en cuenta, ¿no? O cuando sopla para tus sindioses sí.

Si, pero aburre que solo le den premios de estos a los cineastas jubilados. Carne fresca queremos carne frescaaaaaaaa:birr2

Totalmente merecido, pero un premio honorifico suena a viejo. A Spilberg le queda mucho cine que darnos, o eso espero yo.

Como dice Lao, a lo mejor ellos saben algo que nosotros desconocemos.

XD

RUMER WILLIS, MISS GLOBO DE ORO. Además del Globo de honor para Spielberg, la organización de los premios ha informado que Rumer Willis, hija de Demi Moore y Bruce Willis, será este año 'Miss Globo de Oro'.

Será por la cara-globo que tiene :D

Mujer-gamba total :agradable

Y esa pintoresca chavala es la hija de demi moore? Joder con la alteracion de genes.

Esto de los premios es como todo, las ceremonias son entretenidas y dan prestigio, pero significan realmente poco. Lo que se lo dan a gente ya acabada o finalizada? si os fijais en la lista de los globos de oro honorificos, hay mucha gente a la que se los han dado estando todavia en plena forma. Es un sistema distinto al de los oscars, ya que los da la prensa extranjera.

Molaría que se lo entregase Lucas, Johnny y tito Ford!!! Así de paso van promocionando Indy IV :juas

Hay algo que no me gusta de este premio a Spielberg por toda su carrera. Personalmente creo que Spielberg todavia tiene que darnos algunas joyitas mas en forma de peliculas. Este premio lo veo mejor entregado dentro de unos....10 años?? :cafe :juas
