TÁR
Director: Todd Field Run Time: 158 min. Format: DCP Release Year: 2022
Starring: Cate Blanchett, Mark Strong, Nina Hoss, Noémie Merlant
Cate Blanchett plays Lydia Tár, an uncompromising, ambitious, and successful conductor who, it is gradually revealed, has had inappropriate relationships with both mentees and members of her orchestra. A rigorously composed and performed film about a powerful person being confronted with their abuses of power—whether they recognize it or not. Deceptively distanced but incredibly subjective, TÁR paints the portrait of a manipulative artistic genius who has lived a life of artifice so whole-heartedly that they can barely recognize their own lies.
