Drew Barrymore has had an enviable career, from her first appearances as a child to her greatest recent hits. For this reason, she has millions of anecdotes to tell, one of the funniest being the one involving the famous science fiction director, Steven Spielberg.

Since she was little, she was raised in a bad environment, she had abusive parents who only wanted to exploit her so that she could earn money. Furthermore, at the early age of ten, she began with drug addictions.
Struggling against withdrawal, she gave life to characters in Scream, Charlie's Angels or As if it were the first time, but what she remembers most is her time with the director of Jurassic Park and The Fabelmans since she asked her to be her father because hers was not very good.
Some time ago, while talking to People magazine, Barrymore described her relationship with Spielberg: “Steven often calls my daughters, who he held when they were babies, they've known him their whole lives. He is a great father figure to me."
In addition, she confessed: “He changed my life. He was also someone who, although I didn't realize it until he was older, was very fatherly. He was terrified that I painted my lips red or that I did Playboy. At that time she sent me a note that said: 'Take cover!
“My daughters love him and they love his movies. They also love that it's so important to me. He has really been there to give me energy, protection, opportunities, and care the way your family is supposed to. When all that was missing on the other side, he really intervened, ”she closed.
