Ooh! I can hardly wait 'til morning when my wife's up, so I can watch it with the sound on!

The link which Ralfy posted above no longer works, and I'm not sure what the video was, but it might have been the one below.

On screen interviews of Steven Spielberg and James Cameron make this a joy to watch, and the fine narration is by Mark Hamill.

The last segment in this 44 minutes special includes Steve Spielberg singing the praises of my favorite science fiction movie, The Space Children, which Spielberg saw — and loved — when he was kid.

Ditto for me. Very Happy

Spielberg totally got the important fact that the children in the movie were NOT being "controlled by the alien", as so many reviews and plot summaries inaccurately state. Rolling Eyes

I was tickled pink when I first saw this TV special and heard him give that wonderful movie such well deserved praise!
