Character Information

Señor Spielbergo is a Mexican film director whom Mr. Burns hires to direct his short film, A Burns for All Seasons.
When it's announced that Springfield will be holding a film festival and townspeople are invited to enter their own movies, Smithers suggests that Burns make a movie about his life story and enter it into the festival in order to improve his public image: "People see you as something of an ogre ... maybe this film festival could help us. A film biography might let them get to know the real you." Burns likes the idea, and wants Steven Spielberg to direct. Spielberg being unavailable, Burns tells Smithers to "get me his non-union Mexican equivalent!" who turns out to be Señor Spielbergo.
Burns and Spielbergo have creative differences from the very beginning. When Burns says he wants Spielbergo to "do for me what Spielberg did for Oskar Schindler," Spielbergo looks doubtful and says "Schindler es bueno, Señor Burns es el diablo." When they audition actors to play the part of Mr. Burns in the movie, Spielbergo thinks that Bumblebee Man "es muy bueno," but Burns dismisses the whole process as hopeless and says that he'll have to play himself.
Despite these differences of opinion, Spielbergo is not fired and stays on for the entire duration of the project. He does an adequate job as director. When the film festival audience boos A Burns for All Seasons, calling it "pure egotism" and "self-indulgent tripe," it's because of Burns' writing, not Spielbergo's directing.
