As of late winter 2022, this movie actually hasn't been released in my country of Sweden yet - but I was thrilled to see it was being screened earlier as part of the annual "Christmas wake" in cinemas. It was a film I was very excited for.

And to say the least, it lived up to my expectations and more. Spielberg gives a love letter to films that should both inspire and satisfy movie fans in equal amounts. It is such a beautiful film with incredible acting, and providing a bit of a retro American Graffiti kind of feel in some ways.

It is truly a testament to Spielberg's abilities as a filmmaker and how he started his career in the first place. I would recommend it to anyone with even a remote interest in film, it is truly a masterpiece.
