“This is the thing about people in powerful, unassailable positions – and those who are responsible for placing them there, keeping them there and benefiting from that – they’re often very magnetic and attractive” – Cate Blanchett ➡️
Cate Blanchett: I’m an enormous fan. Let’s just get that out of the way right now.
MN: And it’s probably why you get so many people throwing out unexpected adjectives, because the film acts as kind of a Rorschach test. I had dinner with a friend the other day, a writer, and she was like, “I just felt like it was a whole movie about trying to take away this woman’s power. She was so powerful and everyone wanted to chip away at her power and take it from her.” It was yet another reading I hadn’t heard before.

With the Krista character, too – clearly Tár’s blackballing of this person is problematic, for reasons that will become clear if you see the film. But there’s also the vexing fact that being in a position to recommend someone or warn against them is always fraught, especially if there are legitimate reasons why you can’t recommend them, reasons why it would actually feel unethical to do so.
And she’s a perfectionist. And perfectionism is just a stick you can beat yourself with – you can find fault with anything. Tár certainly finds enormous fault with herself.

When you’re in flow, you don’t think about technique, you don’t think about labels, you are just in the middle of the tempest, and you are flying and moving, but then you’ll hit a hump and then you need technique and experience and labels to keep moving. But often we create from a far less literal place. Back to what you were saying about the power of talent – it’s a kind of sorcery. It can, in a way, overtake more susceptible individuals.
Bodysuit in viscose ottoman knit with dégradé raffia fringing by ALEXANDER MCQUEEN. Wrap pumps in leather byMN: I had the good luck of not having any substantial readership until I was about 42 – I’d written eight books before I wrote a book that a lot of people cared about. And that was lovely because now my other books have been republished, but in my mind they were never any less than the book of mine that got more attention,. I don’t even think that’s my best book.
