Michael Alcee: Thank you, Steven Spielberg, for honoring and lamenting divorce in 'The Fablemans'
Briefly

Like so many kids of the 1970s and '80s, I'm grateful for the hero just out of the frame.And it's not because Steven Spielberg launched "Indiana Jones" and "E.T." and wrote about a Mikey ("The Goonies") just like me who finds the treasure to save his family.It's because nobody mines the heartbreak and alienation of the dual citizen that is the child of divorce any better than Spielberg, and I'm guessing nobody ever will.
