Leonard Bernstein's contributions to movies (not to mention classical music in general) have been numerous. He served as the composer for classic movies like On the Waterfront and West Side Story, as well as being a connection to Cate Blanchett's character Lydia Tár in the 2022 movie TÁR (kudos to his estate for having some fun with that nod.) Well, Bernstein is now getting his own movie in the form of Maestro.
The 2023 new movie, which hails from Netflix, is expected to be one of the streamer's potential Oscar plays for the year based on the subject and the fact that Bradley Cooper is directing, his follow-up to the Oscar-nominated and box office hit A Star Is Born.
