Maybe it's Bradley Cooper's commitment that took over my senses. His vision is on the screen. He didn't take the safe, the easy way out. His performance is so moving. Yes, he wrote, directed and plays the title role but look at the space he dedicates to Carey Mulligan, even the billing is a tribute to her and she is sublime. Sublime! I know that the scenes of Bernstein teaching and conducting are scenes that I'm going to see again and again. They are spectacular! Also, for anyone who loves movies, it's a beautiful thing to see the names of Martin Scorsese and Steven Spielberg as producers of this gem. Endorsing not just the movie but its maker. Bravo!
