horizontal line

[Opened Nov. 23 in the theaters.] Steven Spielberg's compelling, factually inspired, award-winning, poignant, coming-of-age, personal, well-written, wit-dotted, star-studded (Judd Hirsch, Seth Rogen, James Urbaniak, David Lynch, Jeannie Berlin, Robin Bartlett, Gabriel Bateman, Nicolas Cantu, Lane Factor, Gustavo Escobar, Jonathan Hadary, and Cooper Dodson), 151-minute semi-autobiographical film highlighted by terrific acting that tells the engaging story of how Spielberg became interested in filmmaking through the eyes of a 7-year-old Jewish boy (Mateo Zoryon Francis-DeFord) living with his ambitious, computer engineer father (Paul Dano); his supportive, flamboyant, mentally-fragile, piano-playing mother (Michelle Williams); and siblings (Julia Butters/Birdie Borria, and Keeley Karsten/Alina Brace, and Sophia Kopera) after seeing the film The Greatest Show on Earth and continuing his passion as a high school student (Gabriel LaBelle) where he was bullied by school jocks (Oakes Fegley and Sam Rechner) and briefly dates an over-the-top, religious Catholic girl (Chloe East).
