#Maestro is a CINEMATIC SYMPHONY. Bradley Cooper’s direction is some of 2023’s best – the use of Bernstein’s score and the film’s stunning camerawork makes for a potent one-two combo. Cooper and Mulligan are SPELLBINDING. As both actor and filmmaker, Cooper is unstoppable. pic.twitter.com/k1mD0Fk7pb
