Bradley Cooper is a modern day Warren Beatty. Beatty is the only person to have been nominated for Oscars in acting, directing, writing, and producing in the same film, and he did so twice: first for Heaven Can Wait and again for Reds. Now, after A Star Is Born and again for Maestro, Cooper has shown he’s not just a great actor, but he’s also someone who can direct, write, produce, and star in the same film.

So at this point, Bradley Cooper's work in Maestro has been praised by Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee, Alfonso Cuarón, and Guillermo del Toro. That is seriously impressive, and all the praise is very well-deserved, the film is phenomenal.

This was such an epic conversation between such good friends and great storytellers

It is so prescious listening to directors interviewing each other because they have such deep insight into the process of the process and the craft so the conversation becomes so insightful and entertaining! Loved this!

So many great interviews for all kinds of great films.. 2023 was a solid year for films!

Wow, what a great conversation! I love hearing the behind the scenes of films. "Maestro" is in my top ten movies of 2023. An impressive film for sure, and I loved all the overhead angle shots.

Amazing phenomenal so glad I get to listen to this

Great conversation ❤️ Loved the film and their performances ❤️

Maestro and Bradley Cooper’s take on the stakes, the drama, the minutiae of the everyday life of Leonard Bernstein; without losing his allure. Almost magnifying the mysticism and humanity of America’s 21st century composer. Every single Biographic film pails in comparison. This movie humanizes him. Where most Biographic films loom under their larger than life figures are trapped by confines of folklore, hearsay and almost risk becoming cliche’s or corny. Maestro’s director Bradly Cooper does none of those things. Forget the technicality of the visuals and the photography, because cinematically everything works. By the end of the film, Leonard Bernstein is your dad, your uncle your best friends older guy friend. He’s so relatable but he doesn’t lose what makes Leonard Bernstein America’s Composer. If you watch the documentaries of Leonard Bernstein funeral procession. And how the construction workers and the common man. Felt like they knew him and say, “Goodbye Lenny”. Bradley Cooper resurrected Leonard Bernstein onscreen, not just through his acting but his cast. Their performances ground the movie. But he made you feel, long and even cry with Leonard Bernstein. As a UKpostsr, who’s only seen a few clips of Leonard Bernstein. A casual classical music enthusiast. And is barely familiar with his work on Broadway and movies. I now can say I have stared at mortality in the face as Leonard Bernstein watched his wife die, and feeling like he never wrote his great American Symphony. That being said, I’m still waiting for a Netflix Leonard Bernstein chronological TV series. Because this movie will almost stump the casual movie goer, who are not used to a visual case study or lack of your typical cinematic language. “The structure with moments, there is not a super imposition of a structure that doesn’t come from a narrative motion”. So this is almost an avant-garde, higher art approach to the medium of the Biographical Movie.” -Guillermo Del Toro With Maestro Netflix Films broke the barrier that’s suffocated film makers in the past (Sergio Leone among others). Netflix is shunning the post Blockbuster Super hero starved Era of Hollywood. Lightning the way are the this brave new world of filmmaking. I can’t wait for the next Netflix film made by other auteurs in the vein of Bradley Cooper or even Martin Scorsese. But as bold and brave as Maestro or Killers of the Flower moon. I hope Netflix brings a new wave of filmmakers, a new way of establishing the future Hollywood or the future of Netflix films. -written by me, A. Ruiz

Thank you so muc!!!Great conversation and such a good sign that mastry lives on only with the community,support and care. What would it be like making this great film for Bradley Cooper without Guillermo del Toro's support ? Also all of Bradley Cooper's humble notes just proves again, we just need to keep working and believe in our craft %100+ !

I'm very hyped up for this movie!!!

You guys are the best I love it

You were the chosen one Netflix. You were supposed to destroy the Oscar bait, not make it

I Love the movie❤

Respect that comment on giving up on trying to be cool

ACTIVEN LOS SUBTITULOS PARA LA GENTE LATINA

Guillermo had the same hero we all Mexicans had when we were little, Kaliman. I wonder if some day he may dare to make a movie about him.

bc is a good student and yes

Please allow CC 😢

I was never particularly a huge fan of Bradley Cooper. I was kinda indifferent on his movies. After "Nightmare Alley" he convinced me as an amazing talent. I need to watch "Maestro" asap. "Carey Mulligan" is also great. 🤦

Could you active subtitles please?

Bradley Cooper/Maestro really wants that Oscar over Cillian Murphy/Oppenheimer.

He can sing and he can act!!! BUT LOOK WHAT I CAN DO 🩰 BRADLEY...LOOK WHAT I CAN DO 🤸‍♂️ HEY 👋 BRADLEY....WATCH THIS....🕺

Maestro is a beautiful film about Bernstein's marriage and family. It's not supposed to be about his life and career, if that's what you're expecting then you're just mad it's not the movie you wanted. As Spike Lee said to Bradley about all the haters, F**k em.' ✊️

Eventually Bradly Cooper gonna win an Oscar

It’s good to be his daughter 🤷‍♀️

I absolutely loved Star, but Maestro didn't cut it for me. It's not really a biopic which is what we were led to believe. Is Bradley talented? Of course. And I'm excited to see what he directs next, but this one was off the mark and that's putting it lightly.

netflix is bringing these great directors to praise bradley cooper which is really strange considering how average maestro is, I don't think this movie is going to win netflix an oscar no matter how many big names they bring to praise it.

why my eyes are wet!

Wey need subs un spanish 😭

Stanley Kubrick could come back from the dead to interview Bradley Cooper about Maestro, but it ain't getting him that oscar.

Maestro an epic story of being gay

Puritans ,

Maestro is based on a false narrative about Bernstein. I posted a new video on my UKposts channel titled THE BERNSTEIN EFFECT. I studied with one of his friends, Ivan Davis, who also performed with him. He's not who you think he is. Arts education was based on his teachings which are designed to make the conductors, pianists and composers stupid. This ruined classical music as an art form and a business. Most of classical recordings are vanity records, because of him. Many of the orchestras have a financial foundation based on criminal activity. They commit wire fraud by soliciting donations with false information. There's a massive amount of jealousy based mental illness, because of Bernstein's assault on arts education. I provide many examples of irrefutable evidence on this subject.

Calm down, Netflix. The Golden Globes are telling you this is a boring movie no one enjoys.

Such a shit movie. This is cinema today unfortunately
