I spent two hours with Spielberg's Mom during a trip to L.A. in the 80s. I made a video about it a couple of years ago. and put it on my youtube channel. It was an extraordinary experience. She was just the way Michelle Williams portrays her in the film, I mean exactly!. One of the favorite memories of my life.

This film isn't just a road trip on how much Spielberg evolved into the legend he is today. This film can be essentially be considered a love letter to cinema, period. I really loved it. And the passion Spielberg put into this really shows. And above all else, rest in peace, Leah and Arnold Spielberg. Thanks for being the progenitors to one of the greats.

Yes! And the way they slowly lead to it. First he is unsatisfied with the way the gunfight scenes in his film look fake. Then we see him staring at the hole punched into the music sheet by his mothers heel, and we know he just had some kind of epiphany, but are not sure what exactly it is, even after seeing the flashes onscreen. And then he explains to his dad what he did, and we are impressed how simple it was!

I wish I could find a video about the visual easter eggs in The Fabelmans, I mean the shots in the movie that are very similar to shots in other Spielberg movies. I have spotted a few and I wonder if I'll spot more when I watch the movie again (I have the 4K Bluray now). For example, the skeleton jumpscare like the one in Raiders of the lost ark, or the group of friends on bicycles at the top of the road, or the close-up of an armadillo by the side of the road with the car coming from the left and past it to the right, that shot is exactly like a shot in Close encounters of the third kind. I'm sure there must be others.

Nice essay! I think you enjoyed this movie as much as I did 😊 I see your thoughts on the Ford's horizon statement differently, however. Let me explain. John Ford very carefully selected the word "interesting" because he meant that point of view has storytelling value, that just changing the camera POV tells a story in itself. The camera is a storyteller with its own language.

Does it show him buying Rosebud from 'Citizen Kane' in the early '80s and saying that it would keep him honest and so as to not make sequels and remakes, and then foisting upon the world those most essential sequels; Temple of Doom, Last Crusade, Crystal Skull, Lost Word, and the the remakes of West Side Story, A Guy Named Joe (Always), not to mention those vital and inspiring Transformers films from his studio that have graced our screens, the ones based on the art on which he was raised, toys and kids tv cartoons.

The difference between 8 mm and regular 8 mm in super eight regular rate was basically a 16 mm film sliced in half and switched around , allowing fo any 16mm stock to be used… As for what is stated in/reframe rates, they were most certainly not « up to 16 frames per second » mine was 18 or 24 and had a setting for one frame,as well for Animation - come on man , this is not the same movie stuff your facts are way off, and these are not the only examples !

Interesting how "Spielberg" was born in, and the family originally were from north Ohio. . . as was Les Wexler, the guy who financed Jeffery Epstein, and was rumored to be, Epstein's boyfriend, was ALSO from Ohio. And Speilberg's father was into computers. . . as are Ghislaine Maxwells TWIN sisters, Christine and Isabel Maxwell. . . and Isabel Maxwell was involved in a few business ventures with Bill Gates in the mid 90's (Bill Gate' mother's maiden name is Maxwell. Is Bill Gates related to Ghislaine Maxwell??) Also. . . Steven Speilberg is in a "secret billionaire's club" called "MEGA" based out of Ohio (not to be confused with MAGA). . . In this "MEGA" club, some members are Les Wexler, Epstein, and of course Bill Gates. As a side note. . . how many young boys from Speilberg movies have come out to say Hollywoods top movie producers abused them???
