Hi Bob,
Yes, I should have mentioned it's a documentary. Doh!
That will, of course, make it a very different film from Whiplash. But I still wish Whiplash had sought to dramatize something approximating real life, rather than simply dramatizing drama.
Yes I knew that too; I should have mentioned it...sorry.

Some of the best viewing stuff are . . . Film-Documentaries. ...Showing more accurately life's depictions...real-life facts.
'Whiplash' is an over exaggerated Hollywood film, way over, but it makes for an impacting effect @ the movies, and attracts more people coincidentally, @ the theaters and on DVDs/Blu-rays. More money @ the box office. This, is America. This is the force awakening, Star Wars, Sparta.

P.S. Yes Spaz, Star Wars and The Revenant and Mad Max are fictions above reality///only The Revenant is loosely based on telling events/readings.
And I posted few good links on The Revenant in two threads; 1. It's official trailer one...and 2. Steve Williams' official short movie review @ the theater, which I also saw recently...and read extensively about...the behind the scenes...the soi-disant known events as told over the years, all that movie/story jazz.
But here, 'Whiplash' the topic of this thread...is an American Hollywood film about music...the art of drumming. :b
And 'Talent Has Hunger' is a Film-Documentary also about music...the art of the virtuoso...the mastering of the cello. And I want to see it, too.
