Leonard Bernstein's family defends Bradley Cooper's Maestro nose

“a sure bet to sweep the Oscars... if only he’d not worn the comically offensive fake giant Jew nose.”Despite all of the outrage, however, the late Bernstein’s children—arguably the three most important voices in this debate—don’t see a problem with the prosthetic. “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,” wrote Jamie, Alexander, and Nina in a joint statement. “We’re also certain that our dad would have been fine with it as well.”Only time will tell if audiences will be able to put aside their ire and respect the family’s wishes, or if this controversy will become the main story of the film as its official release inches closer.
