TÁR

Published on January 24th, 2023

Thanks to our friends at Dendy we’re very excited to have five in-season passes to give away to TÁR starring Cate Blanchett

The two-time Academy Award winner and this year’s Best Actress recipient at both the Golden Globes and the Critic’s Choice Awards, delivers a breathtaking performance in Todd Field’s critically acclaimed new drama.

A tale of a brilliant woman whose past finally begins to catch up with her, TÁR is a must-see masterpiece.

Here’s a brief synopsis:

Set in the international world of Western classical music, the film centres on Lydia Tár, widely considered one of the greatest living composer-conductors and first-ever female music director of a major German orchestra. We meet Tár at the height of her career, as she’s preparing both a book launch and much-anticipated live performance of Mahler’s Fifth Symphony. Over the ensuing weeks her life begins to unravel in a singularly modern way. The result is a searing examination of power, and its impact and durability in today’s society.

Here’s what the critics have to say:

“One of the boldest and most exciting movies in years.”

– IndieWire

“Cate Blanchett is at the peak of her powers.”

– Los Angeles Times

“Director Todd Field gives us a work of genius.”

– The Hollywood Reporter

“A directorial masterclass.”

– The Times
