Really excellent semi- autobiographical film about Steven Spielberg pursuit and passion for film making - all the right ingredients and some great performances from Michelle Williams and Judd Hirsch

Michelle Williams carried the movie with her performance, otherwise it was a cliched Hollywood story of another boy dream
