Amblin Entertainment is an American film and television production company founded by director and producer Steven Spielberg and film producers Kathleen Kennedy and Frank Marshall in 1981.
Amblin is named after Spielberg's first commercially released film, Amblin' (1968), a short independent film about a man and woman hitchhiking through the desert. The film, which cost $15,000 to produce, was shown for Universal Studios and won Spielberg more directing roles. Although Amblin is an independent production company, Universal distributes many Amblin productions, and Amblin operates out of a building on the Universal lot.

Plot: Most wouldn't imagine pizza delivery to be a very dangerous job. Neither did Jonathon Lynch, until one fateful night he made a pizza delivery to the rich, town-hero, trophy housewife, Marilyn Ives, only minutes after she has murdered her husband. She is struck with a brilliant idea: seduce and frame the pizza boy. However, her plan goes awry when Lynchy accidentally stumbles upon the dead body. After the police arrive, Lynchy ironically uses his knowledge of CSI to help prove his innocence against the reputable woman. Through crafty script writing, humorous character development, and impressive locations, "The Pizza Boy" takes viewers on a wild and comedic ride. It is the story of a young man learning to never underestimate himself, and finding his confidence.
