Whiplash (2014)

1
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:21,201
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

2
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:23,084
No. Stay.

3
00:02:28,640 --> 00:02:29,971
What's your name?

4
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:31,641
Andrew Neiman, sir.

5
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,406
What year are you?

6
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:35,531
I'm first year.

7
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,890
Do you know who I am?
Yes, sir.

8
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,841
So you know
I'm looking for players.

9
00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:44,130
Yes, sir.

10
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,289
Then why did you stop playing?

11
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:07,563
Did I ask you to start playing?

12
00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,451
Sorry, I...
I asked why you stopped playing,

13
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:13,644
and your answer was to turn
into a wind-up monkey.

14
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,641
Sorry, I thought...
Show me your rudiments.

15
00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:18,405
Yes, sir.

16
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:25,530
Double-time swing.

17
00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,084
No, double-time. Double it.

18
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:34,331
Faster. Faster.

19
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,284
Oopsy-daisy.

20
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:56,323
Forgot my jacket.

21
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,963
No Swedish Fish?
No, not today.

22
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,570
Thanks.
Mm-hm.

23
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:33,644
You okay? Hm?
Yeah.

24
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:43,771
Yeah. Well, I don't know.
He saw me play today.

25
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:46,730
And?

26
00:05:47,840 --> 00:05:49,285
Mm.

27
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,129
Well, you got plenty
of options still.

28
00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:55,363
What does that mean?
Just...

29
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:57,369
Other options?
Just, you know...

30
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:00,806
It's just life.

31
00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:04,284
Listen, when you
get to be my age,
you get perspective.

32
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,086
I don't want perspective.

33
00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:08,566
Sorry.

34
00:06:14,280 --> 00:06:15,725
All right.

35
00:06:17,280 --> 00:06:19,442
I don't want the Raisinets.

36
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:22,250
Why didn't you say that?

37
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,608
I just eat around them.

38
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,285
I don't understand you.

39
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,123
Bye. I'll see you later. Bye.

40
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,325
My man, Ry. Oh, shit.

41
00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,045
How you feeling, man?

42
00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:22,049
It's been too long.
Been too long.

43
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,527
Things were hurting
with Neiman on the kits.

44
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:25,767
Come on, man.

45
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:27,923
- What?
- He's fine.

46
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:30,602
- If you say so. Good seeing you.
- Yeah.

47
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:31,966
Yo, looking good.

48
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:34,807
What's up? Hey.

49
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:36,684
Good weekend?
Yeah, real good.

50
00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:38,245
Yeah?
Yeah. Lot of fun.

51
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:39,566
Nice.

52
00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:43,084
Hey, don't worry about Greg.
Kid's a dick.

53
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:44,327
Oh.

54
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,801
No big deal.
Good morning, everybody.

55
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:50,971
Good morning, everybody.

56
00:07:51,160 --> 00:07:52,760
- Good morning.
- All right.

57
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,329
Let's do "Billy Zane"
from the top, yes? Yes?

58
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:00,689
- How's that? Good?
- Little right.

59
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,803
One, two, three, unh...
Okay.

60
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,047
Wait. Whoa, whoa, whoa.

61
00:08:17,160 --> 00:08:19,481
All right, let's do reeds, yeah?

62
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,290
Three.
Yo, Ryan.

63
00:08:22,160 --> 00:08:23,844
Watch it.

64
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:25,970
Yeah.

65
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:28,129
Accent, yeah...

66
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:35,087
Not today.

67
00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,320
- Big on the bottom.
- Put some sugar on it.

68
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:40,727
You embarrass yourself
like what's-his-face.

69
00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:43,127
That was truly pathetic.

70
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:15,690
<i>Short.</i>

71
00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,521
All right. All right.

72
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,723
That's enough of that. Just back
to the core drums, please.

73
00:10:26,560 --> 00:10:28,767
Core players,
let's go.

74
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,441
Dude, what have you
been practicing?

75
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,205
May I?

76
00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:57,651
Cute.

77
00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,601
Down the line.
Trumpets, bars seven and eight.

78
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:02,524
Three, four.

79
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:07,331
Three, four.

80
00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:09,210
Okay. All right.

81
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,041
Trombone, bar 24.
The and of two.

82
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:14,287
Maybe not.

83
00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:16,921
Tenor, let's start the pickup to 11.

84
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:18,884
Three, four.

85
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,010
Same spot. Three, four.

86
00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:25,846
Okay. All right.

87
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:29,482
You're in the first chair.
Let's see if it's because you're cute.

88
00:11:29,680 --> 00:11:31,523
Three, four.

89
00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,484
Yep. That's why.

90
00:11:33,680 --> 00:11:38,925
Drums. Let's hear
a little double-time swing.

91
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,210
Behind.

92
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,090
Same thing.

93
00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:54,767
Bass, five bars of "Donna Lee."

94
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:01,605
All right.

95
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:07,441
Drums, with me.

96
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:09,850
Thank you, Joe.

97
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:13,047
No, no, no. Other drums.

98
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:32,968
Room B-16 tomorrow morning,
6:00 a.m. Don't be late.

99
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:42,926
All right, everybody, from the top.

100
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,770
A-one, two, three, unh...

101
00:13:00,800 --> 00:13:01,847
Hey.
How are you?

102
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:03,883
Good. How are you?
Good, thanks.

103
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:05,366
Good.

104
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,603
Uh, the usual? You want, like...?
No.

105
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,282
Look, I don't really know how...

106
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:17,285
I see you in here a lot,
and I think that you're
really pretty and...

107
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:21,969
Would you wanna
go out with me ever?

108
00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,449
Please go away.

109
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:26,527
Oh, God.
Get out.

110
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,202
I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
I'm just messing with you.

111
00:13:30,400 --> 00:13:34,450
I'm messing with you. Ha, ha.
What? Oh, my God.

112
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,489
Ha-ha-ha. I'm sorry.

113
00:13:36,680 --> 00:13:39,684
That's actually pretty mean.
That should've... I'm sorry.

114
00:13:39,920 --> 00:13:41,968
I didn't mean
to hurt your feelings.

115
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,447
What's your name?
It's okay. No big deal.

116
00:13:44,640 --> 00:13:45,721
Oh, I'm Andrew.

117
00:13:45,920 --> 00:13:47,285
Andrew.
Yeah.

118
00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,687
I'm Nicole.
Nice to meet you, Nicole.

119
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:51,723
Nice to meet you too.

120
00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:55,845
So you wanna take me out.
I would love to take you out.

121
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,287
Where do you wanna go?
Pizza.

122
00:13:58,520 --> 00:13:59,760
Pizza.
Yeah.

123
00:13:59,960 --> 00:14:02,804
I like pizza.
Yeah, I know this great pizza place.

124
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:05,924
Cool. Okay, well...

125
00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:07,451
Uh...

126
00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:11,682
I get off at 7 on Monday.

127
00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:15,168
Okay.
You wanna meet here?

128
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,761
Okay. Yeah. I will.
Yeah.

129
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:19,525
Great.

130
00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:21,484
Okay. Seven o'clock?

131
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:23,290
Mm-hm. Here.
At 7 p.m.

132
00:14:23,480 --> 00:14:25,482
Monday. Andrew.
All right.

133
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:27,284
Bye.
Bye.

134
00:14:27,880 --> 00:14:31,407
<i>♪ Keep me waiting ♪</i>

135
00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:39,800
<i>♪ 'Cause I'll keep waiting ♪</i>

136
00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,801
It's not that bad.
She's a go-go dancer.
Could've did porn, she chose not to.

137
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,401
- That make it better?
- Yeah, little bit.

138
00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,762
- That's classier.
- I can deal with that.

139
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:51,291
Bitch had a foot fetish or something.

140
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,089
- This is good.
- You get on that?

141
00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:58,971
That's it.

142
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:01,083
You are fucking kidding me.

143
00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,081
You the new alternate?
Yeah. I'm Andrew Neiman.

144
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,647
Tune the set to B-flat,
then turn my pages.

145
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:10,330
Sure.

146
00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,963
Excuse me.
Um, could I get a B-flat?

147
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,124
Thank you.

148
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,926
Sorry. Can you...?
Just one more time?

149
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:37,722
That's a great kit.

150
00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:39,570
I play the new cymbals now.

151
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:40,966
Milk the cunt!

152
00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:45,642
We got a squeaker today, people.
Neiman.

153
00:17:45,840 --> 00:17:49,083
Nineteen years old. Isn't he cute?

154
00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,330
All right, gang, "Whiplash."

155
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,646
Page. Page!

156
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:53,123
Barker, that is not your boyfriend's dick.
Do not come early.

157
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,642
Bar 93.

158
00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:00,404
Five, six, and...

159
00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,530
Stop.

160
00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:42,369
Now, this one really upsets me.
We have an out-of-tune player here.

161
00:19:43,320 --> 00:19:47,325
Before I continue,
would that player
care to identify himself?

162
00:19:49,400 --> 00:19:50,765
No?

163
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:53,691
Okay, maybe a bug flew in my ear.

164
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,528
One-fifteen.

165
00:19:58,120 --> 00:19:59,121
Five, six, and...

166
00:20:02,200 --> 00:20:03,804
No. My ears are fine.

167
00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,482
We definitely have
an out-of-tune player.

168
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,849
Whoever it is,
this is your last chance.

169
00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,405
And there it went.

170
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:17,729
Now, either you are deliberately
playing out of tune,

171
00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,571
and sabotaging my band,

172
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,331
or you don't know
you're out of tune,

173
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,803
which I'm afraid is even worse.

174
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:31,081
Reeds.

175
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:32,441
Five, six, and...

176
00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:36,170
Bones.

177
00:20:37,520 --> 00:20:38,760
Five, six, and...

178
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:43,729
He's here.

179
00:20:56,240 --> 00:20:58,208
Tell me it's not you,
Elmer Fudd.

180
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,604
It's okay. Play.

181
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:24,530
Do you think
you're out of tune?

182
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:34,088
There's no fucking Mars bar down there.
What are you looking at?

183
00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,931
Look up here. Look at me.

184
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,047
Do you think you're out of tune?

185
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,841
Um...

186
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,130
Yes.

187
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,324
Then why the fuck
didn't you say so?

188
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:57,489
I've carried your fat ass
for too long.

189
00:21:57,680 --> 00:21:59,444
I won't have you
cost us a competition

190
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:02,371
because your mind's on a Happy
Meal instead of on pitch.

191
00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,648
Jackson, congratulations,
you're fourth chair.

192
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:08,327
Metz, why are you still sitting there?
Get the fuck out!

193
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:30,522
For the record,
Metz wasn't out of tune.
You were, Erickson.

194
00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:32,645
But he didn't know,

195
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:35,042
and that's bad enough.

196
00:22:38,160 --> 00:22:41,369
All right, take 10.
When we get back,
the squeaker's on.

197
00:22:51,440 --> 00:22:53,727
Two, two, three.
Two, two, three.

198
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:58,730
If he put half the effort
into playing the trombone...

199
00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:04,004
Andrew.

200
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:10,211
Parents musicians?
No.

201
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,007
What do they do?
My dad's a writer.

202
00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:15,321
Oh, what's he written?

203
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:19,204
I guess he's more of a teacher, really.
Oh.

204
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:22,000
College?
Pennington High School.

205
00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:27,850
Your mother, what does she do?
I don't know. She left when I was a baby.

206
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:29,845
No musicians in the family?

207
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:33,727
You just gotta listen
to the greats, then.

208
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,805
Buddy Rich, Jo Jones...

209
00:23:37,200 --> 00:23:41,125
You know, Charlie Parker
became Bird

210
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:44,483
because Jones threw a cymbal
at his head.

211
00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:46,884
See what I'm saying?
Mm-hm.

212
00:23:47,920 --> 00:23:50,287
Listen, the key is to just relax.

213
00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,843
Don't worry about the numbers.

214
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:55,611
Don't worry about what
other guys are thinking.

215
00:23:57,120 --> 00:23:59,202
You're here for a reason.

216
00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,768
You believe that, right?

217
00:24:02,400 --> 00:24:03,765
Yeah.

218
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,130
Say it.

219
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,202
I'm here for a reason.

220
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:15,091
Cool.

221
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,570
All right, man. Have fun.

222
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,125
All right, gang, "Whiplash."

223
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:52,407
A little under tempo, okay?
Neiman, just do your best.

224
00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:56,530
Here we go.

225
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,081
Five, six, and...

226
00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:16,842
Let's hear some fills.

227
00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:28,640
We got Buddy Rich here.

228
00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,520
A little trouble there.
Just pick it up at 17.

229
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:44,411
Ready?

230
00:25:45,040 --> 00:25:46,246
Five, six, and...

231
00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,330
Not quite my tempo.

232
00:25:54,760 --> 00:25:56,091
Here we go.

233
00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:57,526
Five, six, and...

234
00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:03,165
Downbeat on 18. Okay?
Here we go.

235
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,286
Five, six, and...

236
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,160
Bar 17, the and of four.

237
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:11,850
Got it?

238
00:26:12,120 --> 00:26:14,248
Five, six, seven...

239
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,730
Not quite my tempo.
It's all good. No worries.
Here we go.

240
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,968
Five, six, seven...

241
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,965
You're rushing.
Here we go.

242
00:26:27,320 --> 00:26:29,448
Five... Ready? Okay.

243
00:26:29,880 --> 00:26:32,008
Five, six, and...

244
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:35,320
Dragging just a hair.

245
00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:40,890
Wait for my cue.

246
00:26:41,120 --> 00:26:43,248
Five, six, seven...

247
00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:48,849
Rushing. Five, six, and...

248
00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:54,449
Dragging. Five, six, and...

249
00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:22,202
Why do you suppose I just hurled
a chair at your head, Neiman?

250
00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,962
I don't know.
Sure you do.

251
00:27:25,480 --> 00:27:28,165
The tempo?
Were you rushing or dragging?

252
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:31,561
I don't know.

253
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,525
Start.
Five, six, seven...

254
00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:37,245
In four, damn it. Look at me.

255
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,286
One, two, three, four.

256
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,926
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three...

257
00:27:42,120 --> 00:27:44,248
Now, was I rushing
or was I dragging?

258
00:27:44,800 --> 00:27:46,802
I don't know.
Count again.

259
00:27:47,120 --> 00:27:49,487
One, two, three, four.
One, two, three, four.

260
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,081
One, two, three, four.
Rushing or dragging?

261
00:27:52,280 --> 00:27:54,521
Rushing.
So you do know the difference.

262
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,166
If you deliberately sabotage my band,

263
00:27:57,400 --> 00:27:59,209
I will fuck you like a pig.

264
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:01,285
Now, are you a rusher,

265
00:28:01,480 --> 00:28:03,005
or are you a dragger,

266
00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:05,846
or are you gonna be
on my fucking time?

267
00:28:06,080 --> 00:28:08,128
I'm gonna be on your time.

268
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,171
What does that say?
"Quarter note equals 215."

269
00:28:11,360 --> 00:28:13,442
Count me a 215.
One, two, three, four.

270
00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:15,688
One, two, three, four.
Jesus Christ.

271
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:20,209
I didn't know they allowed retards.
Am I to understand
that you cannot read tempo?

272
00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,210
Can you even read music? What's that?
Eighth note.

273
00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:25,641
Yes. What is that?
Dotted 16th note.

274
00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:27,206
Sight-read measure 101.

275
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:33,045
What, are you in a fucking a cappella
group? Play the goddamn kit.

276
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,447
Stop. Now answer my question.

277
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:39,087
Were you rushing
or were you dragging?

278
00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,004
Answer!
Rushing.

279
00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:48,923
Oh, my dear God.

280
00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,404
Are you one of those
single-tear people?

281
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:56,491
Do I look like a double fucking rainbow
to you? You must be upset.

282
00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,409
Are you upset?
No

283
00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:00,489
No? So you just don't give a shit?

284
00:29:00,680 --> 00:29:03,889
I do give a shit.
So are you upset? Yes or fucking no?

285
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:06,089
Yes, you are upset.

286
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,327
Yeah.

287
00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,727
Say it.
I'm upset.

288
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,730
Say it so the whole band
can hear you.

289
00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,409
<i>I'm upset Louder .</i>

290
00:29:16,640 --> 00:29:18,768
I'm upset.
Louder!

291
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:20,325
I'm upset.

292
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:23,888
You are a worthless, friendless,
faggot-lipped piece of shit,

293
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:27,562
whose Mommy left Daddy when she
figured out he wasn't Eugene O'Neill.

294
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,445
Who's now weeping and slobbering
all over my drum set

295
00:29:30,640 --> 00:29:32,563
like a fucking 9-year-old girl.

296
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:35,684
So for the final father-fucking time,

297
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,326
say it louder!
I'm upset!

298
00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:40,370
Carl.

299
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:44,485
Start practicing harder, Neiman.

300
00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:49,367
"Whiplash," bar 125.

301
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:51,728
Big-boy tempo.

302
00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,001
Five, six, and...

303
00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:29,281
This place is nice.

304
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,804
Yeah. I really like the music
that they play.

305
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:35,001
Mm.

306
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:38,801
I mean, the food's good too, but...
No, the pizza's really good.

307
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,045
"When I Wake."

308
00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,648
What?
That's the name of the song.

309
00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:46,127
Oh. Ha, ha.

310
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:50,126
Jackie Hill, July 17th, 1938.

311
00:32:50,360 --> 00:32:52,124
Bob Ellis on the drums.

312
00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,841
Every time I saw you at the theater,
your eyes were glued to the floor.

313
00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:00,811
Really? Oh...
Mm-hm.

314
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:05,241
My dad says that I have...
I have trouble making eye contact.

315
00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:09,409
My parents like to criticize me too.

316
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:12,444
Growing up, my mom said
I had a really big chin,

317
00:33:12,640 --> 00:33:14,324
that's why guys wouldn't like me.

318
00:33:14,520 --> 00:33:16,090
Really? You don't.
Yeah.

319
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,408
Well, she said my dad
cursed me with one.

320
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:20,961
It's like Jay Leno. Look.

321
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:23,322
No, it's not.
Yeah, it is.

322
00:33:23,560 --> 00:33:26,848
I don't... I don't think so at all.
Well, that's nice.

323
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:31,602
Your chin's very nice. Very nice.
Ha-ha-ha.

324
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,809
Your mom sounds insane.

325
00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,606
She did wanna be an actress
when she was my age.

326
00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:40,484
What about you?
What about me?

327
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,126
What do you do?

328
00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:44,369
I go to Fordham.

329
00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:46,407
What do you study?

330
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,888
I don't have a major yet.

331
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:54,003
But, like, what do you want to study?
I don't really know.

332
00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:56,044
I don't know yet.

333
00:33:57,120 --> 00:33:59,248
So Fordham
was just like a random school?

334
00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:02,330
No, I applied to a bunch of schools,
Fordham let me in.

335
00:34:02,560 --> 00:34:06,246
Why'd you pick Shaffer?
It's the best music school in the country.

336
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:08,764
Well, Fordham was Fordham.

337
00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:24,286
I don't love it there, to be honest.

338
00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,762
No?
No.

339
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:28,604
I...

340
00:34:28,840 --> 00:34:33,209
I don't know. I guess it's just the people.
I don't know if they like me very much.

341
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:37,521
I'm from Arizona,
and I think they can see it.

342
00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:40,771
I feel the same about people at Shaffer.
Yeah?

343
00:34:40,960 --> 00:34:43,281
Yeah. I don't think they like me
too much.

344
00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,006
But I don't... I don't...

345
00:34:46,200 --> 00:34:49,329
I don't care too much.
I think it just... It changes.

346
00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,530
You know, people change
and things work out.

347
00:34:52,720 --> 00:34:54,210
No, no, I know, I know.

348
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,564
I just...

349
00:34:59,520 --> 00:35:01,409
I feel really homesick sometimes.

350
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:05,805
I don't know.

351
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,128
It kind of pisses me off
when people pretend like they're not.

352
00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:13,448
In college, you know?

353
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,488
Maybe I'm literally the only one,
I don't know.

354
00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:23,487
I still go to the movies with my dad.

355
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,844
- Hey. How are you, man?
- Good to see you.

356
00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:02,728
And please, is this really Eva? Wow.

357
00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:05,924
Last time I saw you,
you were very tiny.

358
00:36:06,240 --> 00:36:08,208
Are you playing an instrument yet?

359
00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:09,765
She started piano last week.

360
00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:13,089
When you're a big college kid,
will you come play in my band?

361
00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:15,248
Would you like that?
Be my piano player?

362
00:36:15,480 --> 00:36:16,970
Excellent.
Give me five, baby.

363
00:36:17,160 --> 00:36:19,083
All right. Great to see you.
Great seeing you.

364
00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,243
See you after the show.
Absolutely.

365
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:22,885
Cheers.

366
00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,090
Listen up, Cocksuckers.

367
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,602
Hurry the fuck up.
Get your music.

368
00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,931
"lrene" only. Set one.
Rhythm section out first.

369
00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:39,727
The kit is a fucking tonal catastrophe.
Get it in tune, all right?

370
00:36:39,960 --> 00:36:42,042
Rhythm and soloists, bar 45.

371
00:36:42,240 --> 00:36:43,810
We're gonna pick up the tempo.

372
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:48,085
Bar 106, brass, do not forget
we sharp that ninth.

373
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:51,689
Everybody remember,
Lincoln Center use these competitions

374
00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,326
to decide who they're interested in
and who they're not.

375
00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,882
I'm not gonna have my reputation
in that department tarnished

376
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,208
by a bunch of limp-dick,
sour-note,

377
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,603
flatter-than-their-girlfriends,
flexible-tempo dipshits.

378
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:05,609
One more thing. Give me that.

379
00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:08,406
If I ever find one of these
lying around again,

380
00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:12,286
I swear to fucking God,
I will stop being so polite.

381
00:37:12,480 --> 00:37:15,848
Get the fuck out of my sight
before I demolish you.

382
00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:17,924
Stage right, in order, now.

383
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,002
I can still fucking see you,
Mini-Me!

384
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:36,127
Let's go. Hurry the fuck up.
Let's go.

385
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:50,680
The Shaffer
Conservatory Studio Band.

386
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:48,926
Hold on to this
for the second set.

387
00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,051
He's dumb but he's not stupid.

388
00:38:59,240 --> 00:39:01,971
At the end of the day, he wants a career,
as dumb as he is.

389
00:39:02,160 --> 00:39:06,051
Fudd has a chance
of getting put back in,
so why would he jeopardize that?

390
00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,760
I need to look at the music.
It's right here.

391
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,361
Why isn't it on you?
Where's the folder?

392
00:39:14,720 --> 00:39:17,121
You're joking. You're fucking around?
No...

393
00:39:17,320 --> 00:39:20,722
I swear I had it here two seconds ago.
It's gotta be around here.

394
00:39:20,960 --> 00:39:23,088
Did you see...?
How could you be so stupid?

395
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:25,647
I know. Maybe a janitor came by.
A janitor?

396
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,406
Find the fucking folder!
A fucking janitor?

397
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:32,129
You're a dumb fuck!
A dumb fuck!

398
00:39:32,320 --> 00:39:34,243
Find the folder!
Okay, I'm sorry.

399
00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:36,249
Tanner!

400
00:39:41,640 --> 00:39:44,086
Jesus fucking Christ,
where have you been?

401
00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:47,011
Uh, we have an issue.
Okay, now is not the time.

402
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,643
I gave Neiman the folder
and Neiman lost it.

403
00:39:50,840 --> 00:39:53,081
Neiman lost it.
Yes, sir.

404
00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:55,243
The folder was your responsibility.

405
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:57,647
Why would you give it to Neiman?
Right?

406
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:01,162
Give a calculator to a retard,
he's gonna turn on a TV with it.

407
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,728
Get your sticks, get your ass on-stage.
I... I can't.

408
00:40:05,520 --> 00:40:06,885
You can't?

409
00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:11,404
I... I can't go on-stage.
I don't know
the charts by heart.

410
00:40:13,160 --> 00:40:16,369
Are you fucking kidding me?
I... You know this.

411
00:40:16,720 --> 00:40:19,200
I need the music.
It's my memory, I need visual cues.

412
00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:21,289
Visual cues.
Yes. It's a medical...

413
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:23,648
A medical condition?
What, are you Sanjay Gupta?

414
00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:25,126
Play the goddamn music.

415
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:27,645
I can't.
I can.

416
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,445
You know "Whiplash" by heart?
Yes. Every measure.

417
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:42,125
All right. Well, you better fucking hope
your memory doesn't fail you.

418
00:40:42,320 --> 00:40:45,449
I hope you play it a lot better
than you did last month.

419
00:40:45,640 --> 00:40:47,483
I do not intend to start losing.

420
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:50,524
Get your sticks and get your ass
on-stage. On-stage!

421
00:42:16,000 --> 00:42:17,923
And in <i>first place,</i>

422
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,009
<i>Shaffer Conservatory.</i>

423
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,365
Hey.
Don't fucking touch my folder, man.

424
00:42:46,120 --> 00:42:48,407
Do not touch this kit.

425
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,760
All right, let's get to work, ladies.

426
00:42:56,120 --> 00:43:00,091
Tanner, what you doing? It's core only.
I don't have time for alternates.

427
00:43:01,960 --> 00:43:05,043
"Cherokee." From the top.

428
00:43:13,720 --> 00:43:17,805
Tanner, are you a fucking statue?
Let's go. Get off the stool.

429
00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:28,287
Don't forget to turn Neiman's pages.
Here we go.

430
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:31,127
One, two, three, four.
Two, two, three, four.

431
00:43:52,480 --> 00:43:54,050
<i>What did you do to your hand?</i>

432
00:43:54,400 --> 00:43:56,801
- Is that from drumming?
- Yeah. It's nothing.

433
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,082
So how's it going
with the Studio Band?

434
00:43:59,320 --> 00:44:00,367
Good.

435
00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,528
Yeah, I think he
likes me more now.

436
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:07,090
And his opinion means a
lot to you, doesn't it?

437
00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:09,481
Yeah.

438
00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:13,531
Wanna grab the shakers?

439
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:17,521
Jimbo? Overcooked.

440
00:44:17,720 --> 00:44:18,881
You can barely chew this.

441
00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:23,765
He just laughs.
So how's the drumming going, Andy?

442
00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,921
Yeah, it's going really well.
I'm the new core drummer, so...

443
00:44:28,120 --> 00:44:31,602
- Hey.
- Congratulations.

444
00:44:31,800 --> 00:44:33,290
Tom Brady.

445
00:44:34,480 --> 00:44:36,209
Did you hear, Jim?
No, what?

446
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,728
Trav got named this year's MVP.
That's fantastic, Travis.

447
00:44:39,920 --> 00:44:42,400
Yeah, and Dustin
is heading up Model UN,

448
00:44:42,600 --> 00:44:45,410
soon to be Rhodes Scholar
and who knows what else.

449
00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:47,683
And Jim, teacher of the year.

450
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:49,689
- Well, hey, listen...
- I mean, come on.

451
00:44:49,880 --> 00:44:52,247
The talent at this table,
that is stunning.

452
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,683
And Andy, with your drumming.
It's going okay, Andy?

453
00:44:56,920 --> 00:44:59,321
Yeah, it's going really,
really well, actually.

454
00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:01,887
I'm part of Shaffer's
top jazz orchestra,

455
00:45:02,240 --> 00:45:04,607
which means
it's the best in the country.

456
00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:07,002
And I'm a core member

457
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,806
so I'll start playing
in competitions. I just...

458
00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,526
I found out I'm
the youngest person in the band.

459
00:45:12,720 --> 00:45:16,566
How do you know who wins in
a music competition? Isn't it subjective?

460
00:45:17,520 --> 00:45:19,648
No.
Does the studio get you a job?

461
00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:21,485
It's not an actual studio.

462
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,570
It's the name of the ensemble,
but it's a big step forward in my career.

463
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:27,969
I'm so glad you figured it out.
It's a nasty business, I am sure.

464
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:31,290
Hey, are you gonna tell them
about your game this week?

465
00:45:31,480 --> 00:45:34,802
- Living up to your title.
- I scored a 93-yard touchdown.

466
00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:36,724
School record, school record.

467
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:39,930
Is that true? That's fantastic.
It's Division Three.

468
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:47,326
It's Carlton football. It's not even
Division Two, it's Division Three.

469
00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,323
You got any friends, Andy?
No.

470
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,450
Oh, why is that?
I don't know. I never saw the use.

471
00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:55,205
Who are you
gonna play with otherwise?

472
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,647
Lennon and McCartney
were buddies.

473
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,242
Charlie Parker didn't know anybody
till Jo Jones threw a cymbal at his head.

474
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:02,811
That's your idea of success?

475
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,607
Being the greatest musician of the 20th
century is anybody's idea of success.

476
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:09,246
Dying broke and drunk
and full of heroin

477
00:46:09,440 --> 00:46:11,841
at the age of 34
is not my idea of success.

478
00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:15,209
I'd rather die drunk, broke at 34
and have people talk about me,

479
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:19,485
than live to be rich and sober at 90
and nobody remember who I was.

480
00:46:19,680 --> 00:46:21,967
But your friends will remember you,
that's the point.

481
00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,600
None of us were friends
with Charlie Parker. That's the point.

482
00:46:24,800 --> 00:46:28,521
Travis and Dustin, they have plenty
of friends and plenty of purpose.

483
00:46:28,760 --> 00:46:30,808
They'll make great
school board presidents.

484
00:46:31,000 --> 00:46:32,764
You think you're better
than us?

485
00:46:32,960 --> 00:46:35,804
Catch on quick. Are you in Model UN?
I got a reply for you.

486
00:46:36,000 --> 00:46:38,924
You think Carlton football is a joke?
Come play with us.

487
00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:41,521
Four words you will never hear
from the NFL.

488
00:46:41,720 --> 00:46:44,564
Who wants dessert?
Heard from Lincoln Center?

489
00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:21,051
Okay, get out of here.
Pick up the new chart
by the door on your way out.

490
00:47:21,240 --> 00:47:26,406
Rehearsal 9 p.m. sharp tonight.
That's how long you have to learn it.

491
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:34,010
Neiman. Stick around a minute.
Mm.

492
00:47:38,720 --> 00:47:41,246
See the tempo marking on there?
Uh...

493
00:47:41,800 --> 00:47:44,246
"Quarter note equals 330." Oh.

494
00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:47,086
That is a double-time swing.

495
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,763
That's what got you in here, right?
Oh, yeah.

496
00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:55,407
As fate would have it,
I recently stumbled across another kid

497
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:59,082
in the practice room
working on his double-time swing.

498
00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:00,680
So I'm gonna give him a shot.

499
00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:04,761
Am I late?
Perfect timing.

500
00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:06,803
Come on in, Connolly.

501
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:10,288
Uh, you two know each other, right?
Yeah, Nassau band.

502
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:11,527
What's up, Andrew?

503
00:48:12,480 --> 00:48:16,724
I've made Neiman a temporary core,
but with this competition coming up

504
00:48:16,920 --> 00:48:20,367
I just wanna make very sure
this chart is in the best shape it can be.

505
00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,483
Yeah, this one right here,
right?

506
00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,246
I gave Connolly the chart
this morning.

507
00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,444
All I wanna do is give you
both a crack at it, all right?

508
00:48:30,640 --> 00:48:33,803
So, Neiman, go ahead,
jump on the kit,
take it from the top.

509
00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:35,445
Okay.

510
00:48:38,000 --> 00:48:41,288
I don't want you
to worry about hits now.
Just tempo, okay?

511
00:48:46,520 --> 00:48:48,010
All set?

512
00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,162
One, two...

513
00:48:57,440 --> 00:48:59,283
Not quite my tempo.
Connolly.

514
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:02,211
I can take it from the top.
Connolly, go ahead.

515
00:49:02,400 --> 00:49:05,483
I can do...
No. We'll go with Connolly now.

516
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:13,091
Hey, do you mind?

517
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:21,649
Okay, man, ready?
Mm-hm.

518
00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,691
One and two and...

519
00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:33,009
Perfect, Connolly.
Oh, my God.

520
00:49:33,240 --> 00:49:36,289
See, this to me
is the beauty of Studio Band.

521
00:49:36,480 --> 00:49:39,165
You walk in here an alternate,
you could be the new core.

522
00:49:39,360 --> 00:49:41,408
Oh, my God, are you serious?
Thanks.

523
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:43,648
That shit?

524
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:49,164
Fletcher.

525
00:49:50,160 --> 00:49:52,766
Thanks, man. Here you go.

526
00:49:53,640 --> 00:49:56,405
Don't worry about Fletcher.
He's more bark than bite.

527
00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,282
Hey, look, you...
I can play these charts.

528
00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,683
Now is not the time, I swear to God.
I can play it, okay?

529
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,327
I said not now!
If you want the fucking part, earn it.

530
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:33,809
<i>I'm just gonna lay it out there.</i>

531
00:50:34,000 --> 00:50:36,651
This is why I don't think
we should be together.

532
00:50:37,560 --> 00:50:41,007
And I've thought about it a lot,
and this is what's gonna happen.

533
00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:43,487
I'm gonna keep pursuing
what I'm pursuing.

534
00:50:43,720 --> 00:50:46,530
Because I'm doing that,
it's gonna take up my time.

535
00:50:46,720 --> 00:50:49,041
I'm not gonna be able
to spend time with you.

536
00:50:49,240 --> 00:50:51,720
Even when I do, I'm gonna
be thinking about drumming.

537
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:55,845
About jazz, my charts.
Because of that,
you're gonna start to resent me.

538
00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:00,365
You're gonna tell me
to ease up on the drumming,
spend more time with you.

539
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:05,122
I'm not gonna be able to do that.
I'll start to resent you
for even asking me to stop.

540
00:51:05,320 --> 00:51:08,642
We're just gonna start
to hate each other.
It's gonna be ugly.

541
00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:10,683
And so for those reasons,

542
00:51:10,920 --> 00:51:13,969
I'd rather just, you know,
break it off clean.

543
00:51:21,720 --> 00:51:23,802
Because I wanna be great.

544
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,122
And you're not?

545
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:31,483
I wanna be one of the greats.

546
00:51:33,040 --> 00:51:35,850
And I would stop you
from doing that?

547
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:38,804
Yeah.

548
00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,207
You know I would stop you
from doing that?

549
00:51:43,400 --> 00:51:45,687
You know that for a fact?

550
00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:47,405
Yes.

551
00:51:49,880 --> 00:51:52,565
And I'd barely see you anyway?

552
00:51:54,680 --> 00:51:57,001
Yeah.
When I see you, you'd treat me like shit

553
00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:59,771
because I'm some girl
who doesn't know what she wants.

554
00:51:59,960 --> 00:52:03,567
You have a path, you're going
to be great, I'm gonna be forgotten,

555
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:06,280
and you won't be able
to give me the time of day

556
00:52:06,480 --> 00:52:09,404
because you have
bigger things to pursue.

557
00:52:11,960 --> 00:52:13,200
That's exactly my point.

558
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:15,681
What the fuck is wrong with you?

559
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,168
You're right.
We should not be dating.

560
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:30,082
I'm okay. Thanks.

561
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:45,408
Fuck! Fuck!

562
00:53:04,320 --> 00:53:05,890
Fucking piece of shit!

563
00:53:06,120 --> 00:53:07,690
Fuck you!

564
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:09,370
Fuck!

565
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,241
Fucking piece of shit! Come on!

566
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:25,803
Um...

567
00:53:27,640 --> 00:53:30,928
Sorry, we have a new player.
Ryan Connolly.

568
00:53:31,800 --> 00:53:33,689
Um... Ahem.

569
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:37,289
I'm sorry.

570
00:53:37,680 --> 00:53:40,251
Guys, just put your instruments
down for a minute.

571
00:53:54,360 --> 00:53:56,442
Just listen for a minute.

572
00:54:01,320 --> 00:54:03,402
Six years ago...

573
00:54:04,920 --> 00:54:09,005
I came across a kid in a practice
room working on his scales.

574
00:54:09,680 --> 00:54:14,368
He was early second year and he'd
started at Shaffer with a lot of hope.

575
00:54:17,160 --> 00:54:19,083
Like all you guys.

576
00:54:21,480 --> 00:54:26,327
But the truth was that he barely
squeaked in to begin with...

577
00:54:29,000 --> 00:54:31,128
And he was really struggling.

578
00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:38,923
The faculty were all telling him,
"Maybe this isn't for you."

579
00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:43,048
But they didn't see what I saw.

580
00:54:43,240 --> 00:54:46,164
This scared, skinny kid

581
00:54:46,360 --> 00:54:49,967
cursing himself because
he couldn't get his scales right.

582
00:54:50,160 --> 00:54:52,481
I saw a drive in him.

583
00:54:52,720 --> 00:54:55,371
And I put him in Studio Band.

584
00:54:55,600 --> 00:54:57,329
And when he graduated,

585
00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,803
Marsalis made him third trumpet
at Lincoln Center.

586
00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,571
A year later, he was first.

587
00:55:03,760 --> 00:55:05,842
That's who you're listening to now.

588
00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:10,086
His name was Sean Casey.

589
00:55:18,120 --> 00:55:20,521
I found out this morning...

590
00:55:21,720 --> 00:55:23,449
that Sean...

591
00:55:25,400 --> 00:55:27,607
died yesterday...

592
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:31,562
in a car accident.

593
00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:36,690
And I just...

594
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:42,402
I wanted you guys to know
he was a beautiful player.

595
00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:51,322
I just thought you should know.

596
00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:00,684
I'm sorry.

597
00:56:04,920 --> 00:56:06,410
Okay.

598
00:56:08,600 --> 00:56:15,210
Let's get to work, huh?
How about "Caravan," bar 105?

599
00:56:20,840 --> 00:56:22,842
Two bars for free.

600
00:56:23,240 --> 00:56:25,049
One and two and...

601
00:56:30,440 --> 00:56:32,124
It's not quite right, Connolly.
Um...

602
00:56:33,760 --> 00:56:35,444
I'd like to try Neiman on this.

603
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:43,211
Maybe now's the time
for Neiman to earn the part.

604
00:56:46,920 --> 00:56:48,490
One and two and...

605
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:54,765
Nope, I guess not. Tanner?

606
00:57:05,520 --> 00:57:07,249
One and two and...

607
00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:09,849
Motherfucker!

608
00:57:12,080 --> 00:57:14,811
Connolly,
get your ass back on the kit.

609
00:57:20,760 --> 00:57:24,651
We will stay here for as long as it takes
until one of you faggots can play in time.

610
00:57:25,480 --> 00:57:27,323
One and two and...

611
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:32,364
Looks like that might be all night.
Neiman.

612
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,130
One and two and...

613
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:38,890
Not my fucking tempo!

614
00:57:42,040 --> 00:57:44,771
Sorry, guys.
Hate to put you through this.

615
00:57:46,480 --> 00:57:49,370
If you need to fucking take a dump
or get a coffee,

616
00:57:49,560 --> 00:57:51,210
whatever,
now might be a good time.

617
00:57:51,440 --> 00:57:55,240
We're gonna stay until I find a drummer
who can fucking play in time.

618
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,011
I apologize to the musicians.

619
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:01,323
Seriously, take 10, 20,
a fucking hour.

620
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,808
You hear me, cocksuckers?
Better start shitting me perfect 400s.

621
00:58:05,040 --> 00:58:07,202
Connolly, get your fucking ass
back on the kit.

622
00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:26,805
Is that really the fastest you can play,
you worthless Hymie fuck?

623
00:58:27,680 --> 00:58:31,127
No wonder Mommy ran out on you.
Get off the fucking kit.

624
00:58:33,360 --> 00:58:39,083
And here comes Mr. Gay Pride
of the Upper West Side himself.

625
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:43,530
This is not a Bette Midler concert.
We will not be serving baked Alaska,

626
00:58:43,720 --> 00:58:46,724
so just play faster
than you give hand jobs, will you?

627
00:58:46,960 --> 00:58:48,928
One, two, one, two.

628
00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:53,046
Not even fucking close.

629
00:58:53,240 --> 00:58:55,686
Let's go with the Irish Mick
Paddy cracker now.

630
00:58:55,920 --> 00:58:58,969
You know, you actually do look
quite a bit like a leprechaun.

631
00:58:59,160 --> 00:59:00,924
I'm gonna start
calling you Flannery.

632
00:59:22,240 --> 00:59:23,924
Get off!

633
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:30,000
What are you looking for?
There's no gold down there.

634
00:59:30,200 --> 00:59:31,645
Adjusting the seat? Really?

635
00:59:31,880 --> 00:59:34,360
That's been your problem
the whole time? The seat height?

636
00:59:34,560 --> 00:59:36,130
So now you have it, right?

637
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:38,044
Go.

638
00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:44,850
Bullshit! Fuck you!

639
00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:47,050
Neiman.

640
00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:53,126
Maybe it's time

641
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:56,648
to finally bring this home.
What do you say?

642
00:59:57,000 --> 00:59:58,525
Show me.

643
01:00:02,320 --> 01:00:03,367
Don't slow down.

644
01:00:06,920 --> 01:00:08,604
Pick it up.

645
01:00:10,000 --> 01:00:11,923
Faster!

646
01:00:29,040 --> 01:00:30,724
Faster!

647
01:00:37,240 --> 01:00:38,810
Faster!

648
01:00:41,520 --> 01:00:42,646
Faster!

649
01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:44,844
Faster!

650
01:00:52,880 --> 01:00:54,689
Keep playing!

651
01:00:57,640 --> 01:01:00,530
Keep playing! Keep playing!
Keep playing!

652
01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:04,203
Don't stop.

653
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:22,483
Neiman,

654
01:01:24,040 --> 01:01:25,280
you earned the part.

655
01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:31,882
Alternates, you wanna clean
the blood off my drum set?

656
01:01:35,040 --> 01:01:37,247
Okay, we can start now.

657
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:02,848
5 p.m. call tomorrow in Dunellen.

658
01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:07,161
Give yourselves at least two hours
to get there this time, all right?

659
01:02:07,360 --> 01:02:09,044
Save your travel receipts.

660
01:02:09,520 --> 01:02:12,171
Or don't. I don't give a shit.

661
01:03:17,520 --> 01:03:20,569
Do you know where the cabs are?
You gotta call the cabs.

662
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,650
The cab was supposed to be here.
You gotta call. They take forever.

663
01:03:23,840 --> 01:03:25,171
How do I get to Hargrove?

664
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:34,405
Hey. Come on. Please, come on.
You're still open.

665
01:03:34,600 --> 01:03:37,331
You're still open. Come on.
Come on. Come on.

666
01:03:53,200 --> 01:03:54,247
Yeah, hello?

667
01:03:54,440 --> 01:03:56,807
<i>Neiman, where are you, man?
Call time was 5.</i>

668
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,844
I know, I know.
I'm almost there.
I'm right there.

669
01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:01,883
<i>We're on-stage in 20.</i>
I <i>know.</i>

670
01:04:02,080 --> 01:04:04,731
<i>Fletcher's got Connolly warming up.
God fucking</i> da... <i>Okay.</i>

671
01:04:04,920 --> 01:04:06,843
You just tell
that little fucking redhead I'll...

672
01:04:07,040 --> 01:04:08,690
I'm gonna be there, okay? Fuck.

673
01:04:10,840 --> 01:04:12,683
Hey. Hey. Sorry I'm late.

674
01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:16,169
Well, glad you could fit us
into your busy schedule, darling.

675
01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:18,328
I'm sorry I'm late. I'm ready to go.

676
01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:21,091
Connolly's playing the part.
Like fucking hell.

677
01:04:21,280 --> 01:04:22,725
What the fuck
did you say to me?

678
01:04:25,960 --> 01:04:27,007
It's my part.

679
01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,885
It's my part
and I decide who to lend it to.

680
01:04:30,880 --> 01:04:33,963
Usually it's somebody
that has fucking sticks.

681
01:04:35,400 --> 01:04:38,006
I left them in the car.
I'll be right back. Five minutes.

682
01:04:38,200 --> 01:04:39,565
I'm warming up the band now.

683
01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:43,163
I can use Ryan's sticks.
Neiman, you lost the fucking part.

684
01:04:43,400 --> 01:04:45,243
No, I didn't. You can't do this.

685
01:04:45,480 --> 01:04:46,527
Can't?
Yeah.

686
01:04:46,720 --> 01:04:49,121
When did you become a fucking
expert on what I can do,

687
01:04:49,360 --> 01:04:52,204
you fucking weepy-willow shit sack?
I earned that part.

688
01:04:52,400 --> 01:04:55,131
You never earned anything.
You are a self-righteous prick.

689
01:04:55,480 --> 01:04:58,927
The only reason you're a fucking core
is because you misplaced a folder.

690
01:04:59,160 --> 01:05:02,482
Only reason you're in Studio Band
to begin with is because I told you

691
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:04,728
what I'd be asking for in Nassau.

692
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:06,166
Am I wrong?
Yeah.

693
01:05:06,360 --> 01:05:07,646
I'm in Studio Band
because I'm the best...

694
01:05:07,880 --> 01:05:08,927
Back off.

695
01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:11,646
Hey, fuck off, Johnny Utah.
Turn my pages, bitch.

696
01:05:12,040 --> 01:05:14,691
Hey. I can cut you
any fucking time I want.

697
01:05:14,880 --> 01:05:17,850
You would've cut me by now.
Try me, you fucking weasel.

698
01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:23,526
At 5:30, that's in exactly 11 minutes,
my band is on-stage.

699
01:05:23,720 --> 01:05:26,963
If your ass is not on that stool
with your own sticks in hand,

700
01:05:27,160 --> 01:05:29,208
or if you make
one fucking mistake,

701
01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:32,364
one, I will drum your ass
back to Nassau

702
01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:35,882
where you can turn pages
until you graduate or fucking drop out.

703
01:05:36,080 --> 01:05:39,971
By the time you're done at Shaffer, you'll
make Daddy look like a success story.

704
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:43,409
Got it? Or we can let Johnny Utah
play the part.

705
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:46,445
You choose.
That's my part. I'll be on your stage.

706
01:05:46,640 --> 01:05:48,160
- Fuck you.
- You got 10 minutes,

707
01:05:48,320 --> 01:05:51,164
you fucking pathetic,
pansy-ass fruit fuck.

708
01:06:01,120 --> 01:06:03,726
- Tell Fletcher I'm coming.
- What's taking you so long?

709
01:06:03,920 --> 01:06:07,049
We're <i>moving</i> on-stage.
I got locked in my car. I'm coming.

710
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:09,004
<i>Left turn, 200 feet.</i>

711
01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,089
<i>Are you driving?
No.</i>

712
01:06:11,320 --> 01:06:12,845
<i>What the hell was that noise?</i>

713
01:06:13,040 --> 01:06:17,602
Okay, why don't you just tell Fletcher
that I'm coming, you motherfucker?

714
01:07:01,800 --> 01:07:03,006
Hey. Hey, hey.

715
01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:06,164
Are you okay?
Are you okay?

716
01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:09,250
I gotta get my sticks.
No, stay away from the car.

717
01:07:09,440 --> 01:07:11,408
I've called 911.
Look, I gotta go.

718
01:07:11,600 --> 01:07:13,602
No, no, sir.
A couple more blocks.

719
01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:16,081
Sir, no, you don't have to...
Please get off me.

720
01:07:46,800 --> 01:07:49,565
Hey, guy.
What the fuck happened to you?

721
01:07:55,440 --> 01:07:59,081
The Shaffer
Conservatory Studio Band.

722
01:08:56,440 --> 01:08:57,601
Neiman, what the fuck?

723
01:09:10,400 --> 01:09:12,164
<i>Fuck.</i>

724
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:40,809
Neiman...

725
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:45,411
You're done.

726
01:09:55,800 --> 01:09:58,644
Gentlemen, ladies, I apologize

727
01:09:58,880 --> 01:10:01,724
on behalf of Shaffer Conservatory.

728
01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:08,284
Piece of shit. I'll fucking kill you.

729
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:10,490
- Fuck you.
- Get the...

730
01:10:10,720 --> 01:10:13,041
Get the fuck off me.
Get off me. Fuck off.

731
01:10:16,720 --> 01:10:18,051
Fuck you.

732
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:19,926
Fuck you!

733
01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:22,122
Fuck you, Fletcher! Fuck you!

734
01:10:22,360 --> 01:10:25,125
Get off. Fuck. Piece of shit!

735
01:10:25,360 --> 01:10:27,044
Fuck you!

736
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:44,004
When did you start
talking to her?

737
01:10:44,200 --> 01:10:46,567
Your father got in contact
this week.

738
01:10:47,040 --> 01:10:49,520
Does the name Sean Casey
mean anything to you?

739
01:10:50,320 --> 01:10:52,322
You know of his death?

740
01:10:53,080 --> 01:10:56,050
Last month, he hanged himself
in his apartment.

741
01:11:00,680 --> 01:11:02,205
What does that have to do
with me?

742
01:11:02,440 --> 01:11:04,681
He suffered
from anxiety and depression.

743
01:11:04,880 --> 01:11:08,282
His mother claims this started
during his time as Fletcher's student.

744
01:11:09,280 --> 01:11:13,251
Now, the Caseys aren't wealthy,
they don't wanna file suit.

745
01:11:15,200 --> 01:11:18,249
So, what do they want?

746
01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:22,327
To make sure Terence Fletcher is never
allowed to do this to another student.

747
01:11:47,880 --> 01:11:49,920
<i>Hey, Dad, look at my paradiddle.</i>

748
01:11:52,040 --> 01:11:54,486
<i>Yeah, that's my boy.</i>

749
01:11:54,680 --> 01:11:58,571
He didn't do anything.
What is wrong with you? It's over, okay?

750
01:11:58,760 --> 01:12:01,366
He's out of your life.
Why would you let him get away?

751
01:12:01,560 --> 01:12:04,928
Would you characterize
his conduct as extreme, Andrew?

752
01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:08,602
Did he ever intentionally inflict
emotional distress?

753
01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:20,291
This would not be a public hearing,
you know.

754
01:12:20,520 --> 01:12:23,842
Fletcher would never know
it was you who spoke up.

755
01:12:29,880 --> 01:12:31,484
Why would you do this to me?

756
01:12:32,600 --> 01:12:35,843
Do you think that I would let him
put my son through hell

757
01:12:36,080 --> 01:12:38,481
and then just walk away
scot-free?

758
01:12:38,800 --> 01:12:41,451
Don't you know
I would never let that happen?

759
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:46,441
That there is nothing in the world
more important to me than you?

760
01:12:46,640 --> 01:12:48,563
Don't you know that?

761
01:12:59,280 --> 01:13:00,964
Andrew?

762
01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:49,689
Andrew?

763
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:56,442
Just tell me what to say.

764
01:14:09,200 --> 01:14:10,611
Hey-

765
01:14:28,880 --> 01:14:31,451
<i>I'd give anything
to be there again this fall.</i>

766
01:14:31,640 --> 01:14:33,881
<i>I like weddings,
provided they're not mine.</i>

767
01:14:34,080 --> 01:14:35,525
<i>Marriages are very healthy.</i>

768
01:14:35,720 --> 01:14:38,007
<i>Married men live much longer
than bachelors.</i>

769
01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:41,562
<i>They're trying to outlive their
wives so they can be bachelors again.</i>

770
01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:43,560
<i>Haven't you thought of getting married?</i>

771
01:14:43,720 --> 01:14:44,767
<i>I did.</i>

772
01:14:45,000 --> 01:14:47,082
<i>The young lady changed her mind
at the last moment.</i>

773
01:14:47,280 --> 01:14:50,011
<i>I've been deeply indebted to her
ever since.</i>

774
01:14:50,200 --> 01:14:52,521
And I loaded the pantry up
with Gushers.

775
01:14:52,720 --> 01:14:55,087
Saw that.
Okay.

776
01:14:55,360 --> 01:14:56,885
All right.

777
01:14:58,080 --> 01:14:59,570
Thanks.

778
01:17:19,600 --> 01:17:21,125
Right on, man.

779
01:17:40,440 --> 01:17:42,044
Andrew.

780
01:17:47,080 --> 01:17:48,525
Hey.

781
01:17:55,280 --> 01:17:57,123
I don't know if you heard. Uh...

782
01:17:58,240 --> 01:18:00,402
I'm not at Shaffer anymore.

783
01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:03,811
Yeah, I did hear that.

784
01:18:04,560 --> 01:18:05,800
Did you quit?

785
01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:09,889
Not exactly.

786
01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:15,285
Some parents got a kid
from Sean Casey's year, I think,

787
01:18:15,480 --> 01:18:18,370
to say some things
about me.

788
01:18:18,560 --> 01:18:20,881
Although why anybody
would have anything

789
01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:24,050
other than peaches and cream
to say about me is a mystery.

790
01:18:26,160 --> 01:18:27,650
Yeah.

791
01:18:28,280 --> 01:18:30,123
That's a good laugh, right?
I'm sorry.

792
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:32,084
No, listen... I get it.
I'm sorry.

793
01:18:32,280 --> 01:18:34,248
I know I made enemies.

794
01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:38,041
I'm conducting a little, though.

795
01:18:39,400 --> 01:18:42,404
They brought back the JVC Fest
this year.

796
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:45,649
They got me opening
in a couple of weeks with a pro band.

797
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:48,409
That's great.

798
01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:51,400
Yeah. It's all right.

799
01:18:54,040 --> 01:18:58,841
Truth is,
I don't think people understood

800
01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:01,731
what it was I was doing
at Shaffer.

801
01:19:01,960 --> 01:19:03,564
I wasn't there to conduct.

802
01:19:03,800 --> 01:19:07,327
Any fucking moron can wave his arms
and keep people in tempo.

803
01:19:07,520 --> 01:19:12,082
I was there to push people
beyond what's expected of them.

804
01:19:14,040 --> 01:19:15,929
I believe that is...

805
01:19:17,320 --> 01:19:19,846
an absolute necessity.

806
01:19:21,560 --> 01:19:24,769
Otherwise, we're depriving the world
of the next Louis Armstrong.

807
01:19:25,080 --> 01:19:26,525
The next Charlie Parker.

808
01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:32,361
I told you about how Charlie Parker
became Charlie Parker, right?

809
01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:35,370
Jo Jones threw a cymbal at his head.
Exactly.

810
01:19:35,560 --> 01:19:37,688
Parker's a young kid,
pretty good on the sax.

811
01:19:37,880 --> 01:19:42,522
Gets up to play at a cutting session,
and he fucks it up.

812
01:19:43,640 --> 01:19:46,530
And Jones nearly decapitates him
for it.

813
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:49,366
And he's laughed off-stage.

814
01:19:49,680 --> 01:19:53,321
Cries himself to sleep that night,
but the next morning,
what does he do?

815
01:19:53,520 --> 01:19:55,488
He practices.

816
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:59,640
And he practices and he practices
with one goal in mind,

817
01:19:59,840 --> 01:20:02,446
never to be laughed at again.

818
01:20:02,760 --> 01:20:07,607
And a year later, he goes back to the
Reno and he steps up on that stage,

819
01:20:07,800 --> 01:20:11,327
and plays the best motherfucking solo
the world has ever heard.

820
01:20:14,920 --> 01:20:17,491
So imagine if Jones had just said:

821
01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:22,766
"Well, that's okay, Charlie.
That was all right. Good job."

822
01:20:23,640 --> 01:20:28,009
And then Charlie thinks to himself,
"Well, shit, I did do a pretty good job."

823
01:20:28,880 --> 01:20:30,041
End of story.

824
01:20:30,240 --> 01:20:31,924
No Bird.

825
01:20:33,800 --> 01:20:37,407
That, to me,
is an absolute tragedy.

826
01:20:38,000 --> 01:20:40,765
But that's just
what the world wants now.

827
01:20:41,080 --> 01:20:44,129
People wonder why jazz
is dying.

828
01:20:48,360 --> 01:20:52,524
I tell you, man,
and every Starbucks "jazz" album

829
01:20:52,720 --> 01:20:55,166
just proves my point, really.

830
01:20:55,880 --> 01:21:00,681
There are no two words
in the English language more harmful

831
01:21:00,880 --> 01:21:02,723
than "good job."

832
01:21:07,200 --> 01:21:09,202
But is there a line?

833
01:21:10,200 --> 01:21:13,921
You know, maybe you go too far and
you discourage the next Charlie Parker

834
01:21:14,120 --> 01:21:18,170
from ever becoming Charlie Parker.
No, man, no.

835
01:21:18,360 --> 01:21:21,762
Because the next Charlie Parker
would never be discouraged.

836
01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:23,570
Yeah.

837
01:21:29,160 --> 01:21:31,640
The truth is, Andrew...

838
01:21:33,360 --> 01:21:36,011
I never really had a Charlie Parker.

839
01:21:38,840 --> 01:21:40,729
But I tried.

840
01:21:41,440 --> 01:21:44,284
I actually fucking tried.

841
01:21:44,480 --> 01:21:46,403
And that's more than
most people ever do.

842
01:21:46,600 --> 01:21:51,845
And I will never apologize
for how I tried.

843
01:22:05,240 --> 01:22:06,446
I'll see you later.

844
01:22:06,640 --> 01:22:07,801
Yeah.

845
01:22:09,560 --> 01:22:13,406
Hey, Andrew. Listen, I have no idea
how you're gonna take this,

846
01:22:13,600 --> 01:22:19,767
but the band I'm leading for JVC,
my drummer is not cutting it.

847
01:22:21,320 --> 01:22:23,368
You understand
what I'm saying?

848
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:26,441
No.

849
01:22:26,640 --> 01:22:28,927
I'm using the Studio Band playlist.

850
01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:32,488
You know, "Caravan," "Whiplash."

851
01:22:33,320 --> 01:22:35,402
I need somebody
who really knows those charts.

852
01:22:39,360 --> 01:22:40,964
What about Ryan Connolly?

853
01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:44,680
All Connolly ever was to me
was incentive for you.

854
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:49,767
Tanner?
Tanner switched to premed.

855
01:22:50,840 --> 01:22:52,330
I guess he got discouraged.

856
01:22:54,840 --> 01:22:56,444
Hey. Uh...

857
01:22:56,840 --> 01:22:59,207
Take the weekend.
Think about it.

858
01:23:21,280 --> 01:23:23,965
<i>- Hello?
- Hey, Nicole, it's Andrew.</i>

859
01:23:25,760 --> 01:23:28,445
<i>Hi.
Hey.</i>

860
01:23:29,320 --> 01:23:35,521
It's been a while since I talked to you.
Um...

861
01:23:35,720 --> 01:23:37,609
Look, l...

862
01:23:37,800 --> 01:23:41,122
I'm really sorry about everything.

863
01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:47,885
I know that's not, you know, enough,
but I'm just really sorry. Um...

864
01:23:52,120 --> 01:23:56,409
But anyway, I got...
I actually have this show this weekend.

865
01:23:56,600 --> 01:23:58,284
It's a, uh...

866
01:23:58,480 --> 01:24:01,802
Like, a JVC thing. And I didn't know
if maybe you'd wanna go,

867
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:07,643
and we, you know, maybe
get some, like, pizza afterwards,

868
01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:12,607
And, like, complain
about our schools again.

869
01:24:12,800 --> 01:24:14,882
<i>What is...? You said Jayvees?</i>

870
01:24:15,080 --> 01:24:18,084
No, it's, heh, JVC.

871
01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:22,450
It's like a... It's a jazz thing.

872
01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:24,405
Yeah.

873
01:24:24,600 --> 01:24:26,284
<i>Oh, okay.</i>

874
01:24:27,160 --> 01:24:33,361
<i>Well, I don't know if I can come. I...
I'll have to check with my boyfriend.</i>

875
01:24:38,280 --> 01:24:39,645
Okay.

876
01:24:39,880 --> 01:24:41,405
Yeah.

877
01:24:42,960 --> 01:24:45,247
<i>Yeah, I'll check, but I don't know.</i>

878
01:24:45,440 --> 01:24:47,727
<i>I don't really think he likes jazz music.</i>

879
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,685
Yeah, I mean, it's not for everybody.

880
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:57,484
Okay. Well, I guess
maybe I'll see you guys there.

881
01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:00,926
Okay.
Okay.

882
01:25:01,120 --> 01:25:02,565
Bye.

883
01:26:26,400 --> 01:26:30,121
All right, gang, listen up. Now,
for those of you who are new at this,

884
01:26:30,320 --> 01:26:34,723
which looks like everybody except Cal,
tonight could change your life.

885
01:26:35,120 --> 01:26:40,331
The folks out there make a phone call,
you could be a Blue Note signee,

886
01:26:40,520 --> 01:26:44,081
an EMC client,
a Lincoln Center core.

887
01:26:45,080 --> 01:26:46,127
On the other hand,

888
01:26:46,320 --> 01:26:49,767
if you drop the ball, you might be
looking for a new line of work

889
01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:54,761
because the other thing
about these cats is they never forget.

890
01:26:58,200 --> 01:26:59,804
We all set?

891
01:27:00,000 --> 01:27:02,844
All right. Let's have fun.

892
01:28:04,560 --> 01:28:06,801
You think I'm fucking stupid?

893
01:28:07,440 --> 01:28:10,410
What?
I know it was you.

894
01:28:24,160 --> 01:28:26,049
Thank you, ladies and gentlemen.

895
01:28:26,240 --> 01:28:29,926
We're very excited to be here kicking off
the JVC Festival this year.

896
01:28:30,120 --> 01:28:33,249
I'm Terence Fletcher, these are some
of the best musicians in New York,

897
01:28:33,440 --> 01:28:36,205
which means they're some of
the best musicians in the world.

898
01:28:36,400 --> 01:28:40,450
We're gonna do some old standards,
but we're gonna start with a new tune

899
01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:43,325
by Tim Simonec called "Upswingin'."

900
01:29:28,600 --> 01:29:30,887
What the fuck you doing?

901
01:29:43,360 --> 01:29:44,441
Come on, man.

902
01:30:48,560 --> 01:30:51,040
Yeah, I guess
maybe you don't have it.

903
01:31:28,480 --> 01:31:32,849
That was a little extra
avant-garde there from the rhythm section.

904
01:31:42,840 --> 01:31:45,411
Come on, let's go home.

905
01:31:54,560 --> 01:31:56,164
What are you doing?

906
01:32:12,760 --> 01:32:14,000
Uh...

907
01:32:14,200 --> 01:32:16,851
Now we're gonna slow it down
a little bit.

908
01:32:17,040 --> 01:32:19,008
I'm guessing most of you folks
have heard...

909
01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:33,607
I'll cue you in.

910
01:32:33,800 --> 01:32:35,928
"Caravan."

911
01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:38,927
Three, four.

912
01:33:37,000 --> 01:33:39,082
I'm gonna gouge out
your motherfucking eyes.

913
01:37:21,920 --> 01:37:24,890
Andrew, what are you doing, man?
I'll cue you.
