Steven Spielberg's The Fabelmans is more than another smug love letter to cinema ✒️ Much of this story is about how pursuing one’s art comes at a cost – and sometimes that cost is both deeply heartbreaking and inevitably formative 🟠 christinalefou
The director’s loosely autobiographical family drama is about a teenage boy falling in love with movies – but it is also a wistful examination of the cost of creative passionIn Steven Spielberg’s new loosely autobiographical family drama, an adolescent boy, Sammy , falls in love with the movies as his parents fall out of love with each other.
Sammy is, of course, a version of Spielberg, who from a young age was encouraged to be creative and foster a love for the arts by his mother , a sensitive former concert pianist who settled into the monotony of being a housewife to her scientist husband . Her malaise becomes terminal as Sammy grows older, and he identifies with her, even though he doesn’t quite grasp how deep the problem really is.
. The child becomes utterly obsessed with a violent scene of a train derailing, tinkering with a model train he requests from his parents to recreate the scene in miniature at home. Over time, Sammy’s obsession sees him pick up a camera, becoming a sort of mini guerilla filmmaker by enlisting his siblings to star in his backyard war films and westerns.
