Rated 4.9 out of 5, it’s the best movie of 2023 and it’s already on myCANAL… but it almost never saw the light of day!

Find Fabelmans on myCANAL.

While September may mean the end of vacation and back to work, it’s also an opportunity to start the year off on the right foot. And what better way to do that than to discover or rediscover a great motion picture?

The main platform for fans of the seventh art, myCANAL once again cuts all the stops and has already made available one of the most beautiful gems of recent months: Fabelmans.

Hitting theaters in February 2023, Steven Spielberg’s latest work has become an instant classic in his extensive filmography. From the height of 76 years, the filmmaker, whom we no longer present here, signs a sumptuous work that could not be more personal as it evokes his life, his passion and what has become one of the greatest names in cinema. .

A true declaration of love for cinema and an ode to the pursuit of one’s own dreams, Fabelmans alone invokes numerous references to Spielberg’s other films and takes us on a whirlwind of emotions, from laughter to tears, from surprise to amazement, over the course of 2h31. We don’t see the passage.

And if this multi-award-winning feature film, set to music by John Williams and directed by Gabrielle LaBelle, Michelle Williams and Paul Dano, was the consensus of the public and the profession, it would never have existed.

FABELMANS almost does not exist

In the mind of Steven Spielberg for many years, Fabelmans was not obvious to him, who almost never completed his project. “MI remember when I was directing, I was already preparing to work on this feature film Lincolnin 2012. Because it was a very personal film, I had my doubts“, he admitted.

It was surprising that the coronavirus pandemic forced Spielberg to show his works. “I believe Covid-19 was the trigger. The future of our world was at stake. I found myself with my back against the wall and told myself it was time to face my fears..”

“We didn’t know how the film industry would survive and I told myself it was now or never. I am very proud of this film, which brought me closer to my family and united me even more with my sisters.”

Fabelmans, a fabulous movie you must watch and rewatch for a thousand and one reasons, now on myCANAL.
