I'm no critic. Neither am I a great film buff, but I watched this film knowing it was about Steven Spielberg's family life. So, for what it's worth, I feel he did this film for his 'private/personal viewing'. He is releasing some 'demons' from within. He hasn't done it to please anyone else, just himself and I say well done. I hope he ignores what others feel about this story - it was his life and he lived it, and coped with the trial of going through hard times.

Being Jewish must be so very hard and he had to deal with that from an early age. Bullied at school - and for what? If you haven't batted an eyelid about that subject, best you do your history homework again. Then he had to deal with the breakup of his parents, so sad. Through it all his... (don't say it's a hobby)....must have kept him sane.

Mr Spielberg is the very best film director ever and we who are alive today can sit back and enjoy the fruits of his labours. There is only one film he made that I have only watched once - and it took me a whole day and many breaks to get through it. I will probably never watch it again, it's just too heartbreaking. However, Schindler's List is a Masterpiece. How he made that film, I just cannot imagine.

Thank you Mr Spielberg for your wonderful films - and PS, I'm glad your personal story has a happy ending.
