I think genius of Michael Crichton lies not in his warmth but in his coldness – the clinical precision with which he constructed scientifically plausible nightmares that became billion-dollar franchises.

Speaking with authors Guy Adams and James Lovegrove, I explore how Crichton – the Harvard-educated doctor turned novelist – approached storytelling like a surgical procedure, meticulously researching cutting-edge science and reducing his sleep hours as deadlines approached. This methodical approach yielded novels with remarkable staying power but often lacking emotional resonance, making Steven Spielberg the perfect collaborator to inject heart into his intellectual exercises.

The ‘Jurassic Park’ we know and love represents this perfect symbiosis – Crichton's scientific foundation supporting Spielberg's emotional architecture. While the novel features brutal, extended death scenes described from the victims' perspectives, Spielberg knew exactly how to make these moments both thrilling and accessible. As Adams notes, "The fear comes from the absence of humanity," making Crichton's work particularly effective at creating genuine dread.

Our conversation delves deep into The Lost World – Crichton's only sequel – and how it explores themes of evolution, extinction, and humanity's capacity for self-destruction. With the upcoming Jurassic World Rebirth directed by Gareth Edwards we speculate whether the franchise might return to some of Crichton's colder, more scientific sensibilities, potentially creating dinosaurs that feel genuinely terrifying again.

1993 was a huge year for Steven Speilberg. He released 'Jurassic Park' and 'Schindler's List' to great critical and commercial success. He took a few years off but he couldn't stop thinking about returning to the world of the dinosaurs

This week I sit down with composer Caleb Burnett and discuss our memories of seeing the film for the first time, the playstation video game and of course John Williams's amazing score.
