CNN caught up with inauguration attendees Steven Spielberg and John Cusack who, unsurprisingly, were all praise for the proceedings. Cusack had mainly generalities to offer, but Spielberg grasped that what we’re watching is American cinema at its best. America’s most famous director called Barack Obama “an amazing force of energy,” and said of the crowd gathered on the Mall, “I couldn’t afford to do this shot in a movie.”
The saying goes that DC is Hollywood for ugly people. Nice to see LA’s finest marveling at the sights of the Beltway.
