Headline: Maestro make-up artist apologies over Leonard Bernstein nose controversy
Caption: After a trailer for Maestro appeared online last month, several Jewish entertainment industry figures were critical as they believed the prosthetic Cooper wears to play Bernstein depicted the Jewish composer with an exaggeratedly large nose - a common antisemitic stereotype. The film's make-up artist Kazu Hiro apologised on Saturday at the Venice Film Festival saying it was his intention to capture the real Bernstein's striking looks on camera. "I wasn't expecting it to happen. I feel sorry that I hurt some people's feelings.”.
