Director Danny Jelinek (Jimmy Kimmel Live!) returns to Mama Needs a Movie to discuss Steven Spielberg's autobiographical family drama, THE FABELMANS starring Michelle Williams, Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, and Gabriel LaBelle. Spielberg's newest release tells the story of an aspiring filmmaker named Sammy Fabelman coming of age in mid-century America, torn between his scientist father and whimsical, creative mother. This deeply personal film delves into the family rupture that has long informed Spielberg's work, but how does this literal portrayal of divorce and adolescent disillusionment stack up against the director's more fantastical works?  Take a Ditch Day and join us as we enter the Fabelman Family Fortress to find answer, while taking some diversions into Avatar, David Cronenberg, cooking shows, Rob Zombie, SpongeBob SquarePants, and much much more.
THE FABELMANS is currently in theaters.
