I threw it a vote (https://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?anchor=1&p=2277891#post2277891) in the 2000s countdown, wondering where Field had gone. Hearing only good things about Tár.

I have and I agree! I think I’ve seen all of Clift’s films, and frankly he makes them all worth it. He’s also buried less than a mile from where i live, coincidentally.
