Speaking at South by Southwest in a conversation with Sean Fennessey ofThe Big Picture podcast, Spielberg described watching Day-Lewis perform a pivotal speech in Lincoln, a four-minute take in which the president implores his cabinet on the urgency of passing the 13th Amendment, and simply losing it.
At the end of the first take, he walked off the set entirely. Day-Lewis, still in character, noticed the director was gone and asked where he was. Producer Kristie Macosko Krieger pointed him to the next room, where Spielberg had gone to cry alone. 'Mr. Lincoln walked into the room, saw me, sat down next to me and put his arms around me,' Spielberg said. 'That was a moment I will never forget.'
It was one of several performances Spielberg cited as having humbled him as a director, a list that also includes Anthony Hopkins's summation scene in Amistadand Tom Hanks crying in a crater in Saving Private Ryan.
On the subject of social media, Spielberg was characteristically blunt. He put Instagram on his phone for two weeks and deleted it. 'I had missing time as if I had been abducted by aliens,' he said. 'Where did that time go?'
On his future plans, he was characteristically guarded but offered one tease about a Western project in development: 'It's going to have horses, and there will be guns, but there'll be no tropes.'
