<\/p>\n
Bradley Cooper<\/strong>‘s portrayal of Leonard Bernstein<\/strong> has drawn a lot of criticism — but in Italy this weekend … it drew more applause than outrage, especially from the latter’s children.<\/p>\n Netflix’s new film, “Maestro,” received a standing ovation Saturday at the Venice Film Festival … where it was screened in front of a select audience, without any of its cast members around to enjoy it. Obviously, that’s because of the actors’ strike going on right now.<\/p>\n Still, the rest of the crew was on hand to hear all the cheers … and based on reports, this applause lasted for quite a while — around 7 minutes or so of people on their feet.<\/p>\n By most accounts … Bradley’s a front-runner for Best Actor after his performance in this.<\/p>\n The other notable part about this reaction here is the fact that the late conductor’s adult kids were in the crowd as well — and they seemed thrilled by what they saw on the screen. Check out what they did … on top of just clapping for BC, they seemed to cry too.<\/p>\n Jamie<\/strong>, Alexander<\/strong> and Nina<\/strong> were even seen enthusiastically fake-conducting along to Bernstein’s music when the credits rolled … so yeah, they appear to have loved it.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Of course, the backdrop of all this is the controversy this film landed in — namely, some accusing Brad<\/strong> of “Jewface” … on account of his extended nose prosthetic in the movie.<\/p>\n LB’s children publicly spoke out in support of Brad … saying they’re fine with how he looks on camera, noting their father did indeed have a large nose. Sounds like they might be even more on board after having seen ‘Maestro’ for themselves.<\/p>\n Time will tell if the outrage carries on into the fall … “Maestro” releases in November.<\/p>\n
