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. Sometimes I feel like all the critics are begging me to see it else I’m missing out on something great; the performance of a lifetime. Is it okay to feel deathly afraid of a film such as this?
I think you can use the movie for fuel I share similar experience just like what you described and I enjoy the movie - I watch it every once in a while
Wonderfully well-spoken guy, thanks for the interview and insight into Whiplash
He seems incredibly intelligent, certainly visible through his films. Thanks!
This guy is clearly intelligent. Immensely talented as well. A great combo.
Kinda reminds me of Tarantino with Reservoir Dogs.
