The personage of symphonic conductor and music composer Lydia Tár (Cate Blanchett) is so towering and detailed that that it's possible to forget that she is a work of fiction. Writer/director ToddField gifts us with a rare thing in his third film: a character study of a complicated and commanding woman. TÁR burrows into the discrepancies between the public image of Lydia Tár and her personalshortcomings. Although at the peak of her career, it is clear Tár is heading for a fall. An extended sequence of a Juilliard master class reveals Tár's mercilessness as a teacher as she confronts astudent for prioritizing politics over music. Eventually, the cancel culture that Tár condemns arrives for her.
