Darren du Nord<p>Finally watched <a href="https://c.im/tags/TheFablemans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFablemans</span></a> last night. <a href="https://c.im/tags/MichelleWilliams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MichelleWilliams</span></a> was outstanding. I've enjoyed watching her career evolve and grow. <br>Absolutely loved the final scene with <a href="https://c.im/tags/DavidLynch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DavidLynch</span></a> portraying Hollywood director John Ford. I watched that scene 4 times.</p>
Arthur Wyatt<p>8:<br>The Fabelmans - basically an extended episode of “The Wonder Years”. A syrupy version of the early years of Spielberg life just isn’t that interesting to me. The last scene is great though. <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/stevenSpielberg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stevenSpielberg</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/TheFablemans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFablemans</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/wonderOfCinema" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wonderOfCinema</span></a> <a href="https://wandering.shop/tags/davidLynch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>davidLynch</span></a></p>
Jeff Markel<p>Just watched “The Fablemans.” We liked it, but in an era when authenticity is prized and representation is seen as all-important, why is it okay always to cast non-Jews as lead Jewish characters? In Jewish stories? Casting actors in Jewface. It’s standard practice, and it sucks. </p><p><a href="https://mas.to/tags/TheFablemans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFablemans</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Spielberg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Spielberg</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/hollywood" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hollywood</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/casting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>casting</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/representation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>representation</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Jewfacing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jewfacing</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Mazeldon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mazeldon</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Jewniverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Jewniverse</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/jewdiverse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jewdiverse</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/BlackMastodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BlackMastodon</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/JTwitter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JTwitter</span></a></p>

Let's go to the 3DBB.<p>All my negative expectations for <a href="https://masthead.social/tags/TheFablemans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFablemans</span></a> were realized. The three <a href="https://masthead.social/tags/jewish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jewish</span></a> cast members played brief and stereotypical parts but the leads were played by miscast <a href="https://masthead.social/tags/gentiles" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gentiles</span></a> AND YET I love <a href="https://masthead.social/tags/MichelleWilliams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MichelleWilliams</span></a> more than ever; Glad to see you <a href="https://masthead.social/tags/TonyKushner" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TonyKushner</span></a>; A mere moment of <a href="https://masthead.social/tags/JeannieBerlin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JeannieBerlin</span></a> and I’m on air; It’s <a href="https://masthead.social/tags/Spielberg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Spielberg</span></a> - longer than it needs to be, overstuffed, more beautiful than life itself, very affecting, emotionally resonant and constructed like a masterwork.</p>
