Maestro

Maestro is a towering and fearless love story chronicling the lifelong relationship between Leonard Bernstein and Felicia Montealegre Cohn Bernstein. A love letter to life and art, Maestro at its core is an emotionally epic portrayal of family and love.

Q-tips say: We did enjoy it. Was a tad slow at the beginning but later was good.

“Maestro” is a portrait of the artist as a conflicted man: The film follows the long relationship between Bernstein and his wife, and how their love and marriage was tested by the legendary composer/conductor’s homosexual dalliances, hubris and insecurities. It’s a solid biopic that struggles to find a focus and feels somewhat incomplete, though is boosted by a sturdy performance from the actors.
