Created in 1968, Amblin is an early short film written, directed and edited by Steven Spielberg. In July of 2008, Amblin, which was never commercially released, was posted in its entirety on YouTube.1
The film is set to an acoustic soundtrack and contains no dialog. The plot follows a young man and woman who befriend each other and travel together.
During an interview in Cannes in May of 2008, an interviewer produced an Amblin poster and asked Steven Spielberg about his early film. Spielberg noted that a hat on the poster was remarkably similar to Indiana Jones' trademark hat and explained that Amblin was responsible for helping him get his first show business contract. 2
