![Tár [DVD]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71WDtnIm2nL._AC_UL116_SR116,116_.jpg)
I didn't know till I begin watching this film that I saw this movie long long time ago. But It was still fresh and surprising how great and brilliant this movie is.
Cate Blanchett is an art teacher in a high school and happens to have an affair with her student. And Judi Dench is her colleague who happens to be a lonely woman who has no friend that actually who has an evil past. She has some kind of obseesion in woman, not a lsebian but some kind of odd opsession I believe.
Cate is married but her husband is way older then her and they have no bed time for a long time.
When Judi found out that Cate and her student are having this relationship, she covers it and tries to help them stop meeting each other. But actually she is taking posses of her. It's more like she is enjoying her relationship. She actually needed someone to be with her.
For example, when her cat is dying, she almost blackmails Cate when she is about to go to her son't play at his school saying if you don't go with me to the veterinary hospital, I will reveal your secret.
Judi, for the first time acted as a bad woman and she was really great to be hated by the audience.
Cate on the other hand made it truely worked with making the audiene believe that she and her student's are really having this relationship. Although the boy that she is having sex with is too young-the boy was 15 and he is like a boy-she made it totally believable.
The boy who is a student of Kate was ok but something was missing. He is not masculine enough and it is hard to believe that he really approached Kate and actually had sex with her. It was, as I said, that Kate's really great acting that made it possible to flow the story.
There are three meomrable scenes that I want to mention.
One, when Kate tells her husband Bill Nighy, they had a quarrel, I mean serious talk. That was a hell of a dialogue without a fist fighting and that moment was truely beautiful. Both of the actors are truely into the moment and not a single moment, they acted or faked.
Two, right after the quarrel, Kate went out of the house where a bunch of the anchors are waiting for the interview, she was shouting and talking like crazy. That moment was truely a memorable. Through her entire acting career, it was one of the best scene for sure.
Three, there is this scene where Judi and Kate are quarreling when Kate finds out that Judi is not really Kate's friend and she is more of an enemy, they are truely fighting with words. It was like a world war 3. I mean there were bombs and missiles and all kinds of weapons, I can see.
The movie ends with kind of a happy ending when Kate's husband let her in again and I liked it that way.
The entire movie is filled with tension and clash, human relationship.
It was a great great story and I am happy that I bought this DVD. And it was so cheap like 5$.
