      Back when I was in 10th grade, I was in the wrestling class. I was only approximately 120 Ibs at the time and underweight. One day early in the season, my collarbone and ribcage became misaligned. My arms horizontal movement became restricted due to the pain. I asked everyone; my coach, my teachers, my parents to help me see a Chiropractor. No one took me seriously. Because of this injury which I was forced to wrestle with or fail the class, I never won a single match. I felt absolutely devastated.
      I refuse to see this movie because I am afraid of reliving my own trauma. It’s because of this trauma I fail to understand how so many people including Chris Stuckmann can praise a work like this, and because I fail to understand I feel weak, incompetent, and outcast, like I’m missing out on something great. Is it okay to feel deathly afraid of a film such as this?

      as a 10 year musician, I played in a band. Many times we had the bass player to make the intro of the music and we always knew and followed the rythim of the music. 3 seconds are enough to know and be prepared to follow the bass player. When you are one of the greatest musicians in New York, you don't need a music sheet for famous pieces of music in the kind of the music you know very well, in that case I mean Jazz and what is more famous piece in Jazz than Caravan.

      I think the smile is fake with a big "f u " behind it. He's pretending to approve because the band is following Andrew and he's irrelevant. The band is following Neiman -not him. He was willing to trash the number to maintain that control. The band basically pulled off leaving him pouting on the sidewalk.

    The greatest part about this scene even though it feels so triumphant is how subtlety sad it is, while he gains fletchers respect he in turn repeats history as paralleled by the famous musician and instructor story that’s repeated throughout of instructor who threw a symbol at his players head, and like that drummer he now puts himself on a collision course of destruction. Even said by the director the highest probability is Andrew will become a well regarded musician who lives a short life most likely do to overdose or some type of self gratification, that’s what makes this ending so powerful because while he wins and has the grand finale he also looses everything else human about his life like his relationships and his family by choosing this path.

      @nataliagracia8421 3 года назад +699

      At 2:23 Fletcher is realizing how good is he playing, at 3:04 he is watching how he is playing clean in the right tempo (after struggling on it before when he won the part) then at the end when he continues playing after the show finishes and he ask him what is he doing, he realizes he es becoming the "Charlie Parker" in the drums. They both left their problems behind and put music in first place. This movie is a masterpiece!

      I think it's the latter. I wondered the same upon second viewing but don't forget Fletcher lost his prestigious job thanks to Neiman and that he didn't give him the right song... So his purpose was to make sure that Neiman was humiliated and never had a career in Jazz. But halfway through he realized that he achieved what he craved so much, which was to create a great artist.

And then you learn it’s the POV of Fletcher coming over and the look of defiance on Niemans face just elevates the scene so much more. Absolutely phenomenal

    JK Simmons is so good even just acting as a conductor/musician. I worked in a college choir with a director who was EXTREMELY good at what he did (except he was a genuinely good person), along with many other directors throughout my time in music. All the mannerisms even to the slight shoulder twitch in the beginning are all things I've seen from different directors. He either worked with professional conductors or just went to a lot of performances and studied hard. Either way he did an amazing job.

I went ahead and contacted multiple teachers (a caravan) who all agreed to work with me and sent a group mail, including my director (who didn't respond) and the director above him (who agreed), explaining where I'm heading. I sent a private email to my director, trying to reconcile with him, and linking to this video. Master, you are my inspiration.

      Yes, I completely agree. Oscars usually go to one-dimensional characters, usually ‘freak out’ characters or super pitiful/vulnerable characters. Miles’ character in this movie is often vulnerable and yet because of that, he had a toughness in him in wanting to prove himself. That in my opinion is way harder to portray than a character like Simmons’.
      I think oscars aren’t really about how good an actor’s acting is, it’s more about how well the character manages to capture the attention of the audience. Big difference.

Fletcher's ultimate scheme was to make a great player through abuse and torment, for the student to hate the mentor so much, they become better beyond their mentor's expectation just to prove them wrong. This was Fletcher's philosophy, and Andrew proved him correct.

    The most ironic thing is, had Neiman not gone through what he did in the band, he would have never had the balls to stand up to this guy. After facing such an imposing figure and learning that life went on regardless, Neiman realized he didn't give a shit about what Fletcher did or said to him. Life would continue. Fletcher would continue to lead a band, he'd continue living. Fletcher was all bluster - sure, he'd hit his band members? Gouge out their eyes? Hell no. His power came through fear. If Neiman isn't afraid of him, he is powerless. If he just wanted to please Fletcher, he wouldn't have attempted that solo. At that point, he was playing for himself.

If you watch the director talking about the ending he said Neiman will die of drug overdose in his 30s and will let leave Fletcher's control. You can see this at the end when Flecher tells him to slow down and Neiman follows his lead. It's really a sad ending to a character but still a great movie

    Without doubt the most impressive, literally edge of your seat finish I’ve ever experienced with a film or movie. The entire film builds to this point and viewers are splendidly rewarded. Too many movies these days try to hit every angle, as if the protagonist thinks he can have it all. Well, the real world called and said you have a choice: music greatness or normalcy. I’m inspired by his drive. I think we would all be better off if all of us applied a couple years of intense, singular focus to our goals. Some might view see this as intense selfishness, but once you’ve completed it you can rest assured that the person you’re presenting to someone is the true person you are. Saves everyone the time and trouble.

    The cinematography on this is amazing. The close ups on the fine movements and the emotion in the faces, the overhead shots, wide angle lens views of the stage, the dolly tracking shots that move across to see the players, the call and response whip pans towards the end, the shallow depth of field (blurry background) prioritizing the hand action of the players.
    The lighting is a very big part of the warm look the scene has and the stressed looks on people's faces. The editing is a major element too. And the sound is really well mixed. This is the director that made La La Land, which is another one I love. Makes sense it would have high production value.

Had he walked off stage into his dad's arms the road would've lead to that of the previous suicider. But again he went back and conquered and became one of the greats. Cool dark story tho!

      Stephanie Rodriguez Is that really that much of a sad ending for Neiman, though? I mean, if you remember back to the dinner table conversation he had with his (family) where we see Nieman and his cousins’ ego’s come to a collision, Nieman mentions that he’d rather die of a drug overdose in his 30s and be discussed by people at a dinner table, than live to be 90 years old and have nobody remember his name. Maybe for Nieman this crazy, monk-like dedication and commitment to his craft is what gave him his happiness; even if that comes at the cost of finding true love, having a family, and maintaining meaningful, lifelong relationships with people. Happiness means different things to different people, just because Nieman’s idea deviates and sits outside of what is considered the norm, doesn’t necessarily mean his version of happiness is tainted or toxic when you compare that with the traditional path of finding love and forming meaningful connections with other’s.
