Anecdotes
Of the scene in which Leonard Bernstein conducts the London Symphony Orchestra at the Ely Cathedral in 1976, Bradley Cooper said, "That scene I was so worried about because we did it live... I was recorded live. I had to conduct them. And I spent six years learning how to conduct six minutes and 21 seconds of music. I was able to get the raw take where I just watched Leonard Bernstein [conduct] at Ely Cathedral... And so I had that to study."

Gaffes
The day after Bernstein makes his wildly successful debut with the N.Y. Philharmonic in November of 1943, the story is carried on the front page of the N.Y. Times. One of his friends notes that the front page also includes a headline reading "Hitler Bombs Poland." Germany had bombed and conquered Poland in September, 1939, so the country had already been under German occupation for over four years at the time of Bernstein's debut concert.

Citations
Leonard Bernstein: Summer sang in me a little while, it sings in me no more. Edna St. Vincent Millay.
Felicia Montealegre: If the summer doesn't sing in you, then nothing sings in you. And if nothing sings in you, then you can't make music.

Such a wasted opportunity

I was very excited when I heard Maestro was coming out. With all this filmmaking firepower, it would have to be worthy of its subject. Now I've seen the movie and am stunned by the wasted talent and energy expended for what turned into another movie about rich, talented people who appear to have it all, but get sad and emotional just like the rest of us. They just talk about it a LOT more.

The film is beautifully photographed, but I have no idea what the format change and the black and white to color change accomplished. The acting was good, but rather than being shown that the characters are going through something emotional, we are told, All these immensely talented people seem to talk about is their feelings, not their motivations, plans and aspirations.

Leonard Bernstein wrote and conducted some of the most memorable music of the 20th century. He singlehandedly (with help from Bugs Bunny) kept interest in classical music alive when jazz and rock were kings. But we learn nothing of this in this film. Bernstein's talents and accomplishments are presented as facts, without exploration. What a waste.
