      Spielberg led the DreamWorks under his command and cooperated with the TNT TV network to launch the western epic "Into the west", with a total of 9 hours in 6 episodes. The film writes this magnificent epic from the perspectives of two different families, white immigrants and Native American Indians. The conflict and exchange and integration of two completely different cultures, the hardships of immigrants in building new homes, and the desire for riches of gold diggers are all themes to be shown in this play.
