THE MAESTRO

 

SYNOPSIS: Mario Castelnuovo-Tedesco (Xander Berkeley of “The Walking Dead”) was the composer of more than 200 Hollywood films in the 1940s and 1950s.

The film is based on real letters between the two men. An array of film and music luminaries — Gene Kelly, Cyd Charisse, Nelson Riddle, Igor Stravinsky, Stanley Kubrick — are portrayed onscreen as they enter and exit the composer’s orbit. The cast includes native St. Louisan Sarah Clarke (as Castelnuovo-Tedesco’s wife), William Russ, Mackenzie Astin, and the late Jon Polito.
