2023 NYFF: Bradley Cooper’s Maestro Selected as Spotlight Gala
To premiere on the Lido (Saturday, September 2nd) smack dab when Telluride is up and running, it is finally the New York Film Festival folks who have the North American premiere status for Bradley Cooper’s Maestro. The Netflix film is a Spotlight Gala selection. This is another Netflix film choosing not to hit Toronto. As an added treat, the fest will present the film in Dolby Vision and the immersive sound of Dolby Atmos. A Dolby Vision projection system and a Dolby Atmos sound system will be installed by Dolby and its technical partners in David Geffen Hall specifically for the Maestro premiere, transforming the venue into a state-of-the-art cinema equipped with Dolby’s cutting-edge technology for the one-night-only experience.
