81:25 – 86:27… figure or was he just playing a psychological game like the football coach just getting mad at the left guard just because you want to get mad at correct apex mountain simmons yes tower's a tough one i don't feel like he's had it yet mm-hmm i agree i think he's got one coming for me personally it's uh the great balls of fire scene which is the best movie scene in the last five years it's an insane take but okay fucking cruise just melting down outside the window yeah it's just amazing stuff no i i don't think tower's had it yet but i do love him as goose i thought he was a great goose i agree he was …
The whole segment, as transcribed
that he did this is that's part of these are part of my questions is one was fletcher did he actually have was he able to keep perfect time to he was he actually the perfect conducting figure or was he just playing a psychological game like the football coach just getting mad at the left guard just because you want to get mad at correct apex mountain simmons yes tower's a tough one i don't feel like he's had it yet mm-hmm i agree i think he's got one coming for me personally it's uh the great balls of fire scene which is the best movie scene in the last five years it's an insane take but okay fucking cruise just melting down outside the window yeah it's just amazing stuff no i i don't think tower's had it yet but i do love him as goose i thought he was a great goose i agree he was awesome in maverick it's probably maverick for now i mean that's the biggest movie he's ever been in but he's gonna have something bigger he's gonna get nominated for awards and stuff like he's gonna have a moment shazelle it's la la land jazz movies there's been some good ones but this wonder if this is the first jazz movie like hey what are your favorite jazz movies would be the this be one of the first three mentioned probably yeah i mean lady sings the blues comes to mind with diana ross that's a bleak movie bird the clint eastwood's bird biopic um there's some you know 60s and and 70s movies that are like set in the world of jazz but aren't necessarily about jazz um i feel like paris blues is kind of one of those movies i i don't know i mean it's the thing is is like it's not our or at least my like romantic version of jazz it's not coltrane you know this isn't that kind of cool bop era it's something different it didn't also lead to a run of jazz movies and people ripping up i mean that's the thing is too like fletcher says this in the movie right he's like there's a reason jazz is dying yeah like it's a it's a late period it's kind of you know the end of something really so this is a movie about internet writing that should be your your debut feature car accident scenes it's really good there's been better car accident scenes though for a small movie it's amazing for a small movie i can't believe they i guess he's it's a three composite shot thing so the the complex way that he did it kind of indicates like where he's going with the way he makes his movies where he's got this real mastery of the craft and what is the best car accident scene ever oh man i don't know there's one in final destination that's fucking sick yeah that's it i'm gonna have to google this after we're done uh caravan apex mountain no question any other apex mountains for you no i think you got them all i think you're definitely right that lawland is it for chazelle best racehorse name whiplash yeah caravan caravan um i think all jazz titles kind of double as racehorse names happy mule yeah picking nits why doesn't the rest of the band ever go like what the fuck with you and this drummer and you and the drummer like what about us because they don't they don't want him to turn his ire in their direction you know they're like if if he's taking it i don't have to take that one sarcastic guy is like kind of tests which there was the one guy who he checked it a little bit i don't know man you played sports like when i when i when a coach was dressing someone down i was like as far away from that as possible why is andy's family so stupid about how well he's doing in jazz i think we know that paul reiser's character knows that it's not going well that there's something wrong here and he's like he doesn't say it because he doesn't want to get in the way of his son's passion but that he's like he's really close to his son and he gets his son and but it is going well he's in the number one jazz thing at the best school right changing you know there's something wrong with him right now he's too obsessed you know for a 19 year old like you think you know about this like with teenage kids and like their passions colliding and becoming their obsessions that's dangerous like it's dangerous for me and the things that i love like i spend way too much time on the things that i love and it can it ruins your relationship to those things so i feel like reiser's really good in this movie at kind of communicating that all the way up until the moment when you know casey dies and then they have to like have that come to jesus with the lawyer figure andrew's bus breaks down on the way the performance and he rents a car over getting a taxi or just begging somebody for a ride you know how long it takes to rent a car it's like 20 minutes he's also like 19 yeah i just have a lot of questions about that part leaving the scene of an accident don't you go to jail what if the accident was his fault yeah yeah i think it's a little bit of one of those like are we in a dream state kind of moments i don't think he's actually dreaming but it's meant to feel like so crazy like this is an absurd moment that's happening in his life would fletcher really fuck up a live performance at the jvc in front of an audience it's my biggest nitpick to fuck over andrew yeah i that doesn't make sense it just doesn't make sense he likes jazz too much this is it this is his revenge he also just lost his job yeah that he's had for presumably years so he's not gonna embarrass this jackass kid who's our new drummer he's vindictive but is he that vindictive that he's willing to threaten his livelihood it's a stretch any other uh pickings no you nailed the biggest one to
