The Fabelmans is a tender, autobiographical reverie, written by Steven Spielberg and his frequent collaborator, Tony Kushner, which recounts the moral education of Sammy Fabelman, an adored son, budding visionary who learns that life is agonizingly more complicated than he grasped as a child.
-
The film begins with Sammy seeing his first film, “The Greatest Show on Earth,” and being transfixed by the film’s climactic train crash. This sparks a passion in Sammy that becomes a vocation, and he begins filming and crashing his model trains. The story also explores the tensions in Sammy’s family, particularly between his mother, a classically trained pianist whose thwarted career gives the film heartache and friction, and his father, a genius engineer with a colorless personality.
-
The film is divided into sections, taking Sammy from childhood through high school, across various state lines and through a period of profound family upheaval.
