Cate Blanchett won the Golden Globe for the titular role in Tár, and the rumour mill is saying that she’s the favourite to win the Oscar. Here she plays the fictional conductor and composer Lydia Tár, who enjoys the recognition and fame she has gained throughout her burgeoning career. However, she also has a dark side - she can be ruthless and manipulative, and soon the greatest living composer-conductor starts losing control over forces that she finds difficult to combat.
Read moreA slow dive which moves along at a pleasant pace, Lydia's dark inner self is revealed little by little. Todd Field's scrupulous direction ensures that Tár is a perfect example of how film can dive deeply into characters' inner selves in a highly engaging way.
With its raw and luscious cinematography, cracking script and, not least, the brilliant Cate Blanchett who excels in the lead role, Tár is a rock solid symphony of a film. It has been nominated for six Oscars, including for best film, and has already been referred to as an emerging classic. No wonder Martin Scorsese has heaped lavish praise on the film and stated that it’s given him a far more optimistic view of the future of cinema.
