finished watching TÁR 🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
A story of power imbalance, abuse and misconduct. It's interesting to contrast the behaviour of the character against her own discourse/ideology from the "masterclass": if confounding the artist with their work is a slippery slope, how about the belief that their morals are fully personal? Is that ideology of the amoral genius not a slippery slope towards excusing oneself to immoral conduct?

I find it a bit disappointing that the finale outcome comes from a big escalation, the kind that is nowhere as pervasive and realistic as everything else in the movie. Power corrupts and blinds, yes, but it also mutes and grows numb, cynic. And, most importantly, power acquits; to extents that most would find unbelievable.
