Cue 𝘉𝘦𝘦 𝘔𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘦 line: "𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦 𝘫𝘢𝘻𝘻?"
Funny enough, this is a lot kinder than Whiplash. It makes me wonder if ambition doesn't have to be so mean and cruel. Can one remain true to character (noble, tireless, enthusiastic) when it comes to becoming a so-called great?
Great moments of puffed up cheeks and wincing eyes to match the clashing clanks of brass you can feel off the pages. Hazy intermixings of exposition that create an unclear position in direction, but it's fine and fun because it's jazz. For all the reasons I love improvisation and being an amateur, this one hits!
