In his directorial follow-up to A Star Is Born, Bradley Cooper stars in and dramatizes the public and private lives of legendary musician Leonard Bernstein with empathy, cinematic grace, and harmonious magnificence.

Accentuating the boundless energy of its subject’s genius, Maestro opens on a vividly re-created postwar New York, when Bernstein (Cooper) began his stratospheric rise to international fame as both a conductor and composer. It was also in this period when he first met Felicia (Carey Mulligan), the actress whom he would marry and spend his life with.

Maestro is a tender, often intensely emotional film about the different faces one wears when living in the public eye, depicting the complicated yet devoted decades-spanning relationship between Leonard and Felicia. A selection of the Venice Film Festival and the New York Film Festival. 2023, U.S., DCP, 129 minutes. Rated R.
