The Fablemans at GFT
27 January until 9 February, 2023
Dedicated to the memory of his parents, Steven Spielberg’s wistful coming-of-age drama sees Sammy Fabelman (Gabriel LaBelle) fall in love with the movies after his parents, talented pianist Mitzi (an Oscar-tipped Michelle Williams) and successful computer engineer Burt (Paul Dano) take him to see The Greatest Show on Earth. Armed with a camera, Sammy starts to make his own films at home, much to Mitzi’s supportive delight – finding out early, in ways happy and sad, the power of cinema to reveal the truth.
Featuring a vibrant ensemble cast including Seth Rogen, Judd Hirsch and Jeannie Berlin, The Fabelmans shows Spielberg in mature, easy and reflective mode, gracefully exploring the family roots and dynamics that saw him become one of the world’s most beloved filmmakers.
