The movie was nominated for an Oscar hit and a Sundance Film Festival in 2014, and the film was also Kobe's favorite inspirational film, and it seems that the teenager and Kobe Bryant have the same spirit of not accepting defeat.
The film mainly tells the story of 19-year-old Andrew, who grew up in a single-parent family, bent on becoming a good drummer like Charlie Parker, and met the teacher Fletcher by chance, but he did not expect that the teacher treated the student like the devil, and under such devil training, he eventually succeeded
The brilliance of this movie lies in the explosive power of drum kit music, which is also thought-provoking for education, if you succeed by scolding, the ending may imply tragedy, but the scolding in the movie does inspire human talent. Successful experiences are important, but does gentleness really not make people successful? Can works without tenderness but only explosive power be passed on for a long time?
The film is an inspirational story with a successful ending, but it also reveals a tragic incident of violent education. A teacher at a prestigious conservatory was the notorious Devil Teacher, and a hard-working student admitted to the academy was chosen by the teacher's band as a drummer. During the training process, the teacher suppressed the student everywhere, threw a chair and slapped him, and this student won the chief drummer in the competition, but he was late for the competition. The student was in a car accident because he was in a hurry to rush to the stage, but he could still run to the stage and beat the drum, and because of the teacher's rebuke, he beat up the teacher and was expelled from the conservatory. But an investigator came to the student and asked him to tell the teacher about the violence in class, and the teacher also left the conservatory.
Before this, there was a student who succeeded under the guidance of this devilish teacher, but later committed suicide because of depression. The teacher got this bad news during class and cried sadly, his beloved student.
Later, the teacher and the student met at a music festival, the teacher invited the students to join the band he brought, the students went, but they were humiliated on the stage, the devil teacher continued to suppress the students, and the students were angry and improvised a very successful burst of music.
The story of the film is not complicated, the most exciting thing is that the acting skills of the teachers and students, and the explosive music at the end, left a deep impression on the audience. In the film, the audience can enjoy jazz music, beautiful and powerful, and the tone of the nourishment is like imagining that the eagle's wings will make such a sound across the sky, making people's imagination boundless.
What makes me feel the most appreciative value is that the teacher and the student actors are all superb actors, and the teacher's command movements are so powerful, as if the music world suddenly stops under his command, and suddenly begins to come alive again.
The ending is also very good, after the students have passionately played the existing repertoire, they improvised a drum kit song, and the teachers and students smiled at each other, and then ended in two boring sounds. I listened carefully to the drum kit from the perspective of a musical layman, and felt that the students were imitating the rain in life and playing intense and beautiful music. Rain and sunshine, everything is so beautiful, so is the heart of people, experience waves, but also wash away sorrow, people can be energetic, live in the beauty of discovery.
