It’s time to wind the clock right back to the very beginning and delve into the humble origins of one Mr. Steven Spielberg, with his 2022 semi-autobiographical drama THE FABELMANS. Helping us phone home is the legendary Nick Mear from Nickflix podcast, and together we discuss divorce, a formative love for/obsession with movies, the emotional clarity brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic and the correct placement of the horizon within the frame. A spirited discussion about a really quite miraculous film, and one that’s continually revealing new riches and complications. Now, good luck to you. And get the fuck out of my office!
