"FUCK off Johnny Utah, turn my pages BITCH" The amount of hilarious lines surrounded by pure stress and adrenaline is great, watched Whiplash for the first time just 10 years after it released and it hit me like a snare, amazing film and personal 10/10
This movie is a student horror movie-- as in I’m sure many people went thru similar anxiety as students. Mine was a very intense critic/mentor in architecture school. He dragged me through hell!
When I first watched this I couldn’t finish it because it reminded me too much of this absolutely horrible maths teacher I had for a year and a half. She would shout at us for all the little things, constantly tease the class but of course couldn’t take the same back and would be extremely bipolar and just switch up from day to day. Also picked favourites. She made so many kids cry. Fuck you mrs weaver
As a pianist and percussionist throughout childhood, high school, and college, I’m incredibly thankful and lucky that I never had a music instructor that was anything like this, unlike quite a few other musicians I’ve known or experiences I’ve seen. Thank GOD
This film felt like it hit so close to home. I wanted to throw the remote at the screen in anger at times. Fletcher was me, my mind screaming at myself. My mind did such a good job I’ve started to really hate myself and see myself as an unwanted unworthy small insignificant thing. Not just for my own pathetic attempts at filmmaking but as a person. My loneliness just grew worse and worse aided by my further self hatred with my mind screaming at me. I love this film and it’s been a huge inspiration in my continual attempts at filmmaking. I can only hope one day I can fully silence the screaming in my head. I’ve been working on getting better but it’s a slow process.
@@MinorMotionPicture it's a film that hits pretty close to home for most creatives or artists. The constant drive to do better but also feeling like what you're doing isn't good enough. Or that everyone tells you to succeed you need to essentially ruin your life to get it
Appreciate it! And yeah, I think this movie just hits right for creatives, artists, and people with high ambition. But I also like how it shows the dangers of achievement as well
Just to be clear here, you CAN NOT slam your fist through a drum head, that is fiction. Drum heads are TOUGH AF. They are designed to take a beating. You are 99.99999% more likely to break your hand than even putting a small dent with your fist on a snare head. Looks great on screen? Sure, its a paper head on screen. Great movie, but Damien, dont lie bro lol.
It’s definitely possible because I have done it before but it is dependent on the type of drum head. Since it was jazz it was most likely a single ply head which would definitely hurt but in times of extreme frustration it’s definitely possible.
@@MONOMYTH1well yoU are part of that .00001 of probability lol. Just kidding, you are right one ply, specially if its already a little beat up can definitely break. Still not easy though, and definitely not as easy as the movie lol.
the speed of the production totally shows through in the tension held throughout the film. Quickly paced, but also not. Excellent movie, and quite rare of this caliber these days
For a movie that's all dialogue, and a budget of only 3.3 million, it's really not that fast. MOW's and TV movies are shot in 12-15 days, and usually have a budget of 1 to 2 million. I shot an action movie last year in 18 days. And budgets are only getting tighter and tighter since the strike. Hour long episodic is usually shot in 10 days, but some shows now shoot in 6-7. It's awful.
That's fair! I would say that too, but it's hard to explain, and I wanted a nice catchy title 😅 But I think what makes this one challenging is the musical aspect of it. They were really trying to be detailed about how they were shooting the drum scenes and that seems like a headache of a technical challenge. And it's not even normal music either; it's jazz, which means you really have to be more detailed with how you're presenting it. So normally I wouldn't really point out how fast this was shot but the technicality of it seems anxiety inducing. Which I'm sure is the case with any shoot, like your 18 day action film shoot! Sounds insane
JK Simmons was no stranger to the college music grind either - he was a member of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia Mens' Music Fraternity at the University of Montana.
@@rezaVfx this one is challenging though because of the live instrumentation aspect of it. Especially when you're playing jazz, you don't want to mess that up 😅
A lot of them use longer takes and are more dialogue based though. This movie has a lot of coverage, and pretty crazy music sequences. This movie’s production is really a miracle how it all came together
What's your favorite scene from Whiplash?
This will be the video that gets you over 100K!

That’s a great way to put it: a student horror movie. And this movie definitely expresses the anxiety music students can often experience

You mean to tell me movies aren't reality?!? 😲
You can see the drum head was already broken when he hit it, makes it a lot easier
Congrats on the 100,000 subscribers! You did it!

Love this movie. Caught me off guard. Don't even like jazz. Watched this movie at least 5 times
Underrated video and youtuber, you earned a sub
Was lucky enough to see the re-release in theatres a few weeks ago. Such an amazing piece of cinema.
CONGRATS ON 100K!!!!
Great work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
May we be blessed with more lower budget passion project films... they're always top tier
Amen 🙏
Plz make a video on Skyfall. I am very curious

High quality videos as always! Thanks for doing this:)
Anytime! Working on a lonnnnggg Interstellar video that should be out here this week.
@@FrameVoyager Nice!! Looking forward to it:)

Yep! Untold Depths to J.K. Simmons 😂😂😂
I only Rush and drag the beat, i'm a drummer not a robot.
Why was I thinking about this movie today 😂
I was directly targeting you with ads
I could never pull that feat off in less than 3-4 months 😂
Did you just say 19 days to film ? Whaaaat that’s actually insane
Guess it was a whiplash
🙃🙃🙃
Great movie
make a video about MadS plsss
A lot of European movies made in less than 20 days. The only difference is they are much better than famous Hollywood movies

Dang... you beat me to it haha
Most overrated movie of all time.
What an embarrassing film, pieced together by people who know more about Kurt Cobain than they do about jazz. A plague on American cinema.
This movie isnt about jazz. Its about abuse
