With The Fall Guy crashing into theaters and the upcoming MaXXXine topping our community’s watchlists, we’ve been reminded of how much we love movies about movies. Take a Universal Studios tour tram through La La Land, drive out to Inland Empire, then sail to Bergman Island to come up with a list of 8½—nope, kidding—ten films about the pain and glory of filmmaking. If you find yourself living in oblivion, consult these maps to the stars (lists courtesy of Olivia, Andrew and Emma), or ask Sammy Fabelman for directions. And remember: we’re looking for more Scream 3 than Scream.
