Seek the advice of your elders and collaborate and listen.” During their interaction, Spielberg shared that young filmmakers should put their real personalities into their stories and also listen to their elders in the filmmaking business to learn the ‘art of collaboration’.

The Fabelmans review: Sparkling makings-a-movie-maker moments get lost in an uneven family saga. | Hollywood.

That the true magic of the movies isn’t what’s unfolding on the big screen but when you turn the camera around to the looks of awe and wonder on the faces of its audience. That aside, where the film will no doubt stay with me are its ideas about the love of storytelling and what incites it. Would we be so invested in this boy’s journey if we didn’t know and love the destination he becomes? But these are sparkling makings-a-movie-maker moments that get lost in an uneven family saga, and the increasingly fraught marriage between Sammy’s parents. If The Fable Man is Steven Spielberg’s superhero name (I must admit, it took me an embarrassing amount of time to get the winking-at-us title), then The Fabelmans is his origin story. Stay for a fantastic scene where Sammy struggles to brief one of his actors - a simple-minded jock - for an emotional sequence, until he eventually gets lost in his character, taps into real emotion and breaks down uncontrollably. What is filmmaking if not the literal love child of artistry and engineering? For any lover of the movies, Spielberg’s semi-autobiographical tale is too pure, personal, innocent and wholesome not to relate to and connect with. The year is 1952, the place is New Jersey. His singular focus and repeated attempts to do just that pushes his mother to buy him a camera, so he can stage his very own locomotive collision and rewatch it as he pleases. Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans, I’d argue, is next impossible to entirely dismiss and not feel for. A movie about a young boy falling entirely in love with and becoming besotted by the big screen, who eventually decides to devote his life to it?

But for those filmmakers who are not working independently and are hired by someone else in the business, they should learn from their seniors on a film’s set.

The Fabelmans movie review: Even though the film is based on Spielberg's life, it manages quite artfully to not feel too artful; it refuses to turn itself ...

As Sammy, big brother to three sisters, turns into a budding filmmaker, he learns that the camera can see much more than the naked eye, and not all of it is palatable. So impactful is the experience that he starts to recreate a train crash, one of the most traumatic bits of the film they’ve watched, Cecile B. [Steven Spielberg](https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/hollywood/steven-spielberg-slams-streaming-platforms-for-not-treating-filmmakers-fairly-8262165/) manages to do is to make it both less and more, and that’s both a strength and weakness of the film.

Michelle Williams, in a role that is as crucial to the film as that of the boy who would be a consummate Hollywood gamechanger, shines the brightest.

Michelle Williams, in a role that is as crucial to the film as that of the boy who would be a consummate Hollywood gamechanger, shines the brightest. The encounter turns out to be a bit of an eyeopener for Sammy. He longer has the option of seeking refuge in filmmaking. The Fabelmans move first to Phoenix, Arizona and then to Saratoga, California as the much-in-demand Burt Fabelman hops jobs. His passion grows quickly and the boy never stops filming even though his computer engineer-dad dismisses Sammy's fixation as no more than a child's hobby. Employing a genteel, unflashy semi-autobiographical mode, Steven Spielberg returns to his adolescent years in The Fabelmans.

It's 1952 and a young Sammy's (Gabriel LaBelle) parents have taken him to a showing of Cecil B DeMille's The Greatest Show on Earth.

After films like E.T, Schindler's List, and Saving Private Ryan, the artist perhaps deserved to create a piece that is more personal than based on expertise. And it's mesmerising to watch the protagonist go through this journey through the films he makes. It's 1952 and a young Sammy's (Gabriel LaBelle) parents have taken him to a showing of Cecil B DeMille's The Greatest Show on Earth. In his most personal film yet, Steven Spielberg weaves a love letter to cinema. Dano takes up the role with a boy-next-door charm.

In the latest interview, Steven Spielberg spilled the reasons why he had walked away from the Harry Potter franchise. Read on!

[Google News](https://news.google.com/s/CBIwo7yAqUE) But whatever it is, it would have given a different meaning to the Harry Potter world if Spielberg had directed it. So I’d sacrificed a great franchise, which today looking back I’m very happy to have done, to be with my family.” He said as quoted in Collider, “The personal meaning about [how the conflict between] art and family will tear you in half happened to me later, after I had already established myself as a filmmaker, as a working director. It’s quite difficult to actually separate the two worlds. The massively popular film franchise Harry Potter began with the movie Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, back in 2001.
