... Excerpts from Steven Spielberg On ‘Fabelmans’ Oscar Noms, His First Screenplay Nod, ‘Indiana Jones’ & Why Theatrical B.O. “Will Come Back”:

Steven Spielberg’s autobiopic The Fabelmans notched seven Oscar nominations today including Best Picture and the filmmaker’s ninth directing nod.

And while Spielberg already counts three Oscar wins –two for directing Saving Private Ryan and Schindler’s List and Best Picture for the latter– today the blockbuster filmmaker of Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park celebrated his first screenplay nomination ever, in the original category, for The Fabelmans.

“I just recently turned 76, where they say, ‘What’s left to accomplish?’ I suddenly get nominated for the first time in my career by the Academy as a co-author of Best screenplay — it made me feel like all those English and creative writing classes paid off!”

... Excerpts from Michelle Williams on why parenthood is her greatest role and playing Steven Spielberg’s mother:

‘It’s quite all right,’ she says. ‘We are blessed in many other ways.’

Well, quite. The Fabelmans has now been nominated for best picture and best director at the Oscars and Williams for best actress – her fifth nomination. The film has also scooped best drama film and best director at the Golden Globes, again where Williams was also nominated. So, does she feel like 2023 is finally her year?

‘I feel like as long as I’m working, it’s always my year,’ she says. ‘I’ve been doing this for 30 years, since I was 12 years old. I’ve been acting my entire life. And there were so many years when I wasn’t making the kind of work that I wanted to. So anything good that comes my way is only received with joy and relief.’
