Drum solos are fine ... for about 15 seconds then they get tiresome and repetitive. Maybe some exceptions for certain asian music, but never with a snare set.
This movie was about Sadism and Masochism each in their own way grasping for the ember of genius.
this is a movie about music. expect it
shareI haven't read this thread but I have to agree completely. It's hard enough for drummers to come up with interesting ways to get your attention for a nice solo, but that went on waaay too long. I enjoyed the intensity, but if I were in the audience, I'd have shook my head and hoped the other musicians would get in there and start playing.
I'm not a woman much less Deanna Durbin, but the old-time glam-shot appeals to me.
Nope. It was great.
sharecsue-palmer-937-895589 has it, the scene actually goes through many phases. It's stunning how long it goes on for, I kept thinking 'where is this going' - it starts out as a FU to Fletcher but by the end he knows he is witnessing a once in a lifetime performance.
shareIt's never too long. Real music lovers know that. Anyone who says it's too long should go back to listening to top 40 music.
