Maestro is billed as a “love letter to life and art.” At its core, the movie is an emotional portrayal of family and love as we see Leonardo’s life as the famed conductor and the two navigating their life and relationships. Mulligan previously described their relationship as “complicated” given “everything revolved around Lenny.” Adding “There was a lot of ‘What if?’ with her character…. What if she hadn’t given up acting? When I listened to tapes of her being interviewed, it seemed like she wasn’t sure how far she’d have gone — that she felt like, maybe she didn’t have it in her to be great. But on the other hand, she never got the chance to find out.”
