Todd Field, Cate Blanchett, Nina Hoss & More on TÁR | NYFF60

Watch the TÁR press conference from the 60th New York Film Festival with director Todd Field, cast members Cate Blanchett, Nina Hoss, and Sophie Kauer, and composer Hildur Guonadóttir, moderated by NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim.
The charisma and emotional precision of Cate Blanchett are put to astounding use in this deft showcase for the actor’s musical artistry, a stinging portrait of a world-famous orchestra conductor’s gradual unraveling that is the first film in sixteen years from director Todd Field (In the Bedroom, Little Children).

Cate Blanchett gave a performance for the ages. She is absolutely mesmerizing! I also hope she works with Nina Hoss again. They are both incredibly talented and have such an amazing chemistry.

[@quinnkinsella2762]

Just got out of the theater. This has to be one of the most mesmerizing movies I’ve ever seen. Bravo

[@ammyt2082]

I was interested in this movie because of Cate, now I'm in love with Nina Hoss. What an incredible actress! You must watch her in "The Audition"; I can't praise her enough. A movie with these two is definitely a gift for us cinema lovers.

[@kavehchini3773]

The end scene from "Phoenix" is one of my favorite movie scenes of all time. Wonderful movie in case you haven't watched it, and the final scene is just perfect.

[@ammyt2082]

@@kavehchini3773 You were right! I loved Phoenix. Nina's interpretation was superb, the way she conveys complex emotions is fantastic. That last scene you talked about shows a quick yet subtle progression from passion and melancholy to anger and resentment. I'm already a fan of hers. 😀☺️

Saw Todd Field's "Tar" yesterday starring Cate Blancette. If this is not an Oscar-wothy performance, I don't know what is. Required viewing for cinephiles.

Fun fact: Todd Field played Nick Nightingale (the piano player) in Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut. And Cate Blanchett played the masked woman's voice Eyes Wide Shut.

Saw Tár last night. Outstanding. Can't stop thinking about it. I also didnt realize that Hildur Guõnadottir was the composer!

[@RobertSlover]

the composer spoke so wonderfully about the experience and process of scoring and the creativity involved in music making.

[@susieq8424]

Tár is one of those movies that you can tell have been made with so much love from everyone involved. What a wonderful beautiful movie! I really enjoyed listening to all of these stories and insights. Pure bliss!

[@rics1883]

Incredible interview! Such consummate professionals these artists are

[@JohnSpawn1]

When I read, early on, about a new film by Todd Field and starring Nina Hoss and Blanchett, I thought this would likely turn out to be very good. The reviews seem to confirm this. Can't wait to see this. It'll be interesting to see how accurate the musical elements will be.

[@thatquietkid209]

so happy for this

[@Lushy260]

[@ArtistYellow]

Cate Blanchett is stunning in this movie. If anyone wants to Nina Hoss is a good role look for "Phoenix" (2014)

They say she’s an EGOT. I’d love to know what movie she won an Oscar for. Same with what musical she’s doing on Broadway. Doesn’t seem to have the temperament for entertaining people. 😄

[@Athenia]

I wondered this as well! 😂

[@65g4]

She could have composed a score for some movie

She is not an EGOT (yet) she has been nominated for both Tony and Emmy awards…but does have two Oscars. (The Aviator, Blue Jasmine)

[@nicolasmith6411]

would love to have been there when Cate told Todd Field about his hilarious malapropism - "precircumcised" as opposed to "precircumscribed". I bet she gave him shit for that!!!

[@Blanchettx]

[@focuspulling]

There is so much talent represented onstage here, and in this film, that the long and drawn-out discussion by/about Hildur Guðnadóttir is perplexing. Surrounded by actual great composers heard in the film, not least Mahler and Elgar but several more, her spare sound designs in comparison get exaggerated as genius -- awfully similar to conceptual artists talking for hours about splashing paint.

[@glenndickson6835]

It’s a shame you don’t understand what she’s saying. It’s okay, you’re just not smart enough.

[@focuspulling]

@@glenndickson6835 Ah, yes, I'm not smart enough to understand. Behold the genius of Hildur Somethingorother: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIemnmiYe9lsoKc

alright man

[@maryvallettakeith6146]

It's a sad irony that actors and directors who portray classical musicians get a million times more attention and honors from the general public than actual classical musicians. Strange world we live in. And yeah, I now Tar is fictional.

[@kavehchini3773]

I hope they get the satisfaction from their work and are free of all the sick attention that everyone craves these days!!

[@Ousmanovsky]

It's probably because cinema is more accessible that opera. And maybe classical music is associate with elitism. So it gets less mainstream.

[@weasley2o13]

I don't know... The movie looks visually fascinating and well acted so I'll watch it, and as an extreme introvert I neither judge or am I scared by people who are hard to swallow, in fact I see it as a challenge. But I'm also a writer and an editor and seeing Todd getting all that love and respect and doesn't even bother to smile in return really made me take a step back from him. I get it, truly, social interaction is much harder than people want to believe, but don't dismiss people's time and attention by ignoring their gesture towards you. And then he said that he didn't know if cinema would ever return during the pandemic so what would be the point of writing a new one and that truly sent me over the edge. I'm writing a movie and a series right now and yes, I have bigger dreams in life, but putting career aside, from a human perspective, how can an artist just give up on the purity of cinema? How can you stop believing in something so sacred and then expect to be recognized for your own creation? That's really hypocritical. I will defend all forms of art and especially cinema at all costs no matter how insignificant it may seem to other who don't know and don't want to know any better. Again, I will watch the movie, and if I find his work as a director interesting and moving I will respect him as such, but I honestly don't think I can respect him as a person after seeing and hearing him on this stage. I know it's harsh but this is what I felt and honesty is more important that sucking up to people. Especially in art.

[@FTFFF]

Yes, the film is stunning, field is a genius, cate is always flawless and the entire cast brilliant....but let's also give a shout out to dennis lim for being a really sharp, perceptive, and thoughtful interviewer whose intellect and insights always impress. He's the best there is at this.

[@daimhaus]

Todd Field is really not the most engaging speaker ...

[@nt4081]

[@weasley2o13]

How about some respect?

[@cara.leo_]

Just because someone isn’t the most eloquent or engaging in an interview doesn’t mean they’re not talented and skilled, which he obviously is for making this movie. A lot of great artists are introverts and express themselves mostly in their craft.

Such duplicacy should be exposed. The disciple was one of finest film of that year. Still neither nomination from Oscar neither any major awards. When will west supremacy end. If hollywood even produces a shit like don't look up it gets Oscar nomination. Racist west should be exposed for its duplicacy.
