Spielberg's Coming of Age Trilogy

That's right: it's time for another Spielberg themed discussion and we decided to tackle another unofficial trilogy he conceived where he discusses "Coming-of-Age" related material:   What Frank Capra inspired homages does Spielberg often insert into these kinds of genre movies?   Is West Side Story still worth seeing for Spielberg completists despite it feeling completely unnecessary?   And the Watch It If You Can Podcast fellas share a Spielberg autographed bit of merchandise!       MOVIES DISCUSSED:  Always,  West Side Story (2021) &  The Fabelmans     PODCAST GUESTS: Chris Page, Ken Bates, Daniel Ryan, Jon Mark, Dave & Liam (Watch It If You Can), Elliot Serrano, Oreo Brewer & Mike Ensing
