Monstrous maestro: why is Cate Blanchett’s cancel culture film Tár angering so many people?

Despite glowing reviews, Todd Field’s drama about a predatory conductor has struggled at the box office. Is this because its protagonist is an unlikeable woman?

Punters probably don’t need another reason to skip Tár, Todd Field’s much-discussed tale of a feted conductor who becomes a lightning rod for the #MeToo movement, but Marin Alsop was happy to oblige nonetheless. Tár, the US conductor told the Sunday Times, was “anti-woman” and a personal affront. The film could have told the story of a rapacious male monster, but chose instead to make its lead a female conductor. “To have an opportunity to portray a woman in that role and to make her an abuser,” Alsop said. “For me, that was heartbreaking.”"

I saw a clip of some annoying prick male music student essentially cancelling Bach because he was a misogynist (he had 20 kids or so therefore must hate women) and Cate Blanchett's character checked his nonsensical viewpoint so I figured she was the person you were supposed to get behind. Turns out we're supposed to identity with the student and hate her character instead.

As much as I like Cate Blanchett I'm struggling to see a reason to watch this.
