Maestro

Trail & District Arts Council’s MONDAY CINEMA presents Maestro at The Royal Theatre, 1597 Bay Avenue in Trail on Monday, Feb 5 at 4 pm.

A love letter to life and art, “Maestro” tells the complex love story of Leonard Bernstein and Felicia Montealegre Cohn Bernstein. An emotionally epic portrayal of family and love, that spans over 30 years, led by a pair of powerful performances, Maestro serves as a stirring overview of a tremendous talent’s life and legacy.

“Maestro is the closest thing to perfection I’ve seen on the screen in a very long time.” – Rex Reed, Observer

“This is not just a worthy tribute to one of the greatest figures in the American musical canon, but also one of the finest films of the year.” – Marlow Stern, Rolling Stone

“An astonishingly beautiful film, by turns heartbreaking, tragic and tender, one that is fully constructed around two incessantly committed career-high performances.” – Kevin Maher, Times (UK)
