Watching WHIPLASH, one gets the feeling Damien Chazelle blames his lack of success as a musician on his loving girlfriend and parents. What’s worse: the movie celebrates abusive behavior to the point of getting J.K. Simmons an Oscar. Listen to Alex and Julio discuss the film that made America fall in love with the word “tempo”! Wonder why people can’t just be nice to Paul Reiser! And be dismayed at the most ridiculous ending a jazz movie has ever had!
