Michelle Williams very touched
“You have in front of you a man who is crying because he is very moved to see his parents again. So you have compassion for him but at the same time, as an actor, you say to yourself inside ”Oh, thank God it’s working. We are on the right path” »she delivered.
For the actress, The Fabelmans is a tribute to Steven Spielberg’s parents: “they are the reason he made this movie”she believes, “because he loved them so much and he wanted to bring them back to life, honor them and tell their story.”
