Kyle M @RT77296778 Jan 29 If you’ve seen "The Fabelmans", a narrative docudrama portraying Spielberg’s beginning via semi-autobiography, this earlier documentary is a stark contrast by superior, ascending approach with perfect, definitive examination of his filmmaking transitional evolution, compiled whilst greatly enhanced.

See more David F @dfulmer 07/07/2024 This is a fantastic documentary about the filmmaker with a star studded cast of talking heads including the director himself, carefully reviewing his impressive career. At times it feels mythmaking, like the story about how Spielberg couldn’t get into USC but did take a tour of Universal Studios, hiding in the bathroom until the tour moved on, in order to get his start in Hollywood, but for the most part it’s an excellent review and explication of the many films of Spielberg, with an attentiveness to his career trajectory, the themes of his films, the effect of his personal life on his filmmaking, and his family. Spielberg made himself available for seemingly innumerable interviews and discussed everything from the overarching themes of his career to some of the specific filmmaking techniques he has used over the years and why he used them. If you like Spielberg or have gone to the movies anytime over the past 50 years there will be something new you will learn from this fascinating documentary.

It goes into specific detail on his life and what inspired him to create all of the classic films he made throughout his career. He's a true visionary and there will be no one like him. If you haven't seen this documentary, check it out sometime. It's a definite must see.

Luckily HBO created a wonderful documentary about him that featured everything I'd hoped to know and more. If you're a fan of the legendary director behind some of Hollywood's best blockbusters, Spielberg is definitely worth watching. See more Read all reviews
