The trailer for Netflix’s ‘Maestro‘ was recently released. Following the release, it faced backlash as Bradley Cooper‘s prosthetic nose was criticized for perpetuating Jewish stereotypes (“Jewface”).

Recently, Leonard Bernstein‘s family issued a statement supporting Bradley amid online criticism of his appearance in ‘Maestro’. They mentioned that Bradley’s use of makeup to enhance his resemblance was acceptable to them, and they believed their father would have approved as well.

On Twitter/X, Leonard Bernstein’s family wrote, “Bradley Cooper included the three of us along every step of his amazing journey as he made his film about our father. We were touched to the core to witness the depth of his commitment, his loving embrace of our father’s music, and the sheer open-hearted joy he brought to his exploration. It breaks our hearts to see any misrepresentations or misunderstandings of his efforts. It happens to be true that Leonard Bernstein had a nice, big nose. Bradley chose to use makeup to amplify his resemblance, and we’re perfectly fine with that. We’re also certain that our dad would have been fine with it as well.” they added, “Any strident complaints around this issue strike us above all as disingenuous attempts to bring a successful person down a notch—a practice we observed all too often perpetrated on our own father. At all times during the making of this film, we could feel the profound respect and, yes, the love that Bradley brought to his portrait of Leonard Bernstein and his wife, our mother Felicia. We feel so fortunate to have had this experience with Bradley, and we can’t wait for the world to see his creation. Jamie, Alexander, and Nina Bernstein.”
