For Winslet and Fassbender's sake I decided to take it in at the Telluride Film Festival and I'm so glad I did.
This is not your typical bio pic. Steve Jobs is more like a three-act play than a movie. There are essentially three scenes in the entire film. Each scene takes place backstage in right before the three big Apple product launches (from the original Apple to iMac in the late 1990s).
In addition to the film's unusual style and impressive performances all around, the film's form is exciting shot in three different formats that change as the film progresses (from 16mm to 35mm to digital).
This film is at times funny, and it's a very enjoyable time.
