    When you first watch the movie, you're led to believe that the climax is the Wonders performing on TV in front of millions of people. But this is the real climax: Guy jams with his hero and discovers his future path.

    • @jason60chev
      @jason60chev 6 лет назад +38

      Exactly. After the band breaks up in the studio, Guy is by himself. He starts on the drums with what kinda sounds like the beginning of their tune.....then reverts back to his jazz origins and meeting, again, his idol, Del Paxton.

    Hits close. I had been playing a precision bass for about 8 or 9 years, had always liked jazz but considered it out of my scope. First year in music college, one day teacher is late, instruments are there so guys start jamming on standards. I'm given a big ass double bass and the chords to "Days of Wine and Roses". I do my best to walk on it, probably sucked major butt, but I was ecstatic, in a way I had never felt up to that point and felt again very, very few times in 25 years as a musician.
    Teacher comes in, instead of berating us he sits down and goes "fuck this class, bring me some bourbon!". It was glorious.

    I always imagine it that this scene in some extended version starts with just those two playing and then willy walker comes by followed by some of the other jazz musicians from earlier when Guy was at the jazz bar. All together they just jam as one each playing off the the others start until all are ready to stop. They all chat together and then the bosses come in. Having overheard all this including Guy, they offer Guy a new contract as a jazz musician. This is why he decides to stay as now he has a new future as a jazz musician which is probably what his real dream goal was all along. It may have thrown off the story a bit but it would have indicated that Guy had a good future ahead of him.
