A long session on the therapy couch with Steven. How did it turn out so badly? How did this man with so much potential whose career never took flight beyond a few Super 8 shorts end up with so many failed dreams and crushed hopes? The Fabelmans gives you some idea, depicting a horrendous childhood upbringing where we see a boy raised by a nightmarish father given to abominable acts like quitely working on engineering projects and offering supportive advice, and a mother who played beautiful piano and adopted a pet monkey. How Steven even made it out alive is a wonder. Watch this, and weep. Ouch.
