Todd Field’s Path to Tár

[carolinalily]

The film “Tár” has inspired vigorous discussion among its viewers. “The idea that there’s a fairly robust conversation about this is incredible,” the “Tár” director Todd Fields recently told @MJSchulman. https://t.co/Qd4jzhHbDH

It's funny because I was so bored the first 20 minutes and thought I was going to hate it but now I consider it my second favorite movie of the year under EEAAO. I hope Field can make it in the final cut for best director at the oscars

I really enjoyed this movie - it's a great character study. 4.5/5 stars for me.

I need to see Todd Field's other movies. I can't believe he's only directed 3 feature films. 🤔

“I called up Tom Cruise and said, ‘Something terrible has happened.’ He basically said, ‘This is how you’re going to play it. It’s going to take you six months, and you’ll beat him, but you have to do exactly what I’m going to tell you to do, step by step.’

Apparently there's multiple instances of Tom Cruise fucking up Weinstein’s hold of power on projects and his character in Tropic Thunder is based on him, dude hated Weinstein

Marty not even being able to get his way with Weinstein really says a lot

i thought his character was based on scott rudin too? might be a mix of both, they're both fucking unhinged

In the Bedroom & Little Children 😴

Actually no, Patrick Wilson was cute & Jackie Earle Haley was depressingly good in Little Children
