Welcome back! This week’s Cinemavino is part 4 of our series in which we take a look back at over and underrated films. Like all great directors, Steven Spielberg has delivered movies in both categories. Fun, laid-back, and sweetly sentimental, I’ve always put Always in the underrated department. Sure, it has flaws.

That means it’s time for a fresh look. It has some interesting ideas and col...
