That night the guest list swelled too, to more than a dozen, and Kate Capshaw, Spielberg's actress wife, had to scurry to a local store for extra table linen. The elegant meal of Chilean sea bass and white wine (except for Katzenberg, who sipped his usual Diet Coke) at the home of the most successful filmmaker in history had to impress Samsung's reclusive...

The characters should be in a rush, but the writer and director should spend as much time as it takes...
...there anyone who seems more California than STEVEN SPIELBERG? Maybe not, but he's apparently had enough of it. He and his wife, actress Kate Capshaw, have told friends they intend to relocate from Los Angeles to New York City in a year or so. The Spielbergs think Manhattan's economic and racial melting pot will be a better environment for their three children, ages six, four...
