<PERSON>
Consistently excellent, Tár feels to me as if it is missing something very slight, despite the obvious competency and nuance! Could be attributed to personal taste- as many others seem to regard it complete, but to me, it just feels as if it falls short slightly as a cohesive film. Despite this, it manages to remain thoroughly engaging despite its relatively steep runtime for a film such as this, and I am certain that <PERSON> especially deserves any accolades that she has or may receive. The ending is definitely profound, thrusting <PERSON> and the audience into an environment completely alien from the crisp, manicured interiors of the beginning. 657
I do feel that it is rather on the nose however, and a more satisfying conclusion may explore the ramifications of <PERSON>’s downfall in relation to the other characters, perhaps <PERSON> or even <PERSON>. The complete avoidance of this is certainly intriguing though, a very insular glance into <PERSON>’s own perspective and constricted worldview. The copy I found of this online (still need to see it in the cinema, may well make me like it a whole lot more! Lol) didn’t have any German subs, so I was battling with google translate and inference by my side for a lot of the film, so may have missed something there also! It’s great tho. A lovely film, very clearly impassioned ! 217
