synopsis
A promising young drummer enters an elite music conservatory, where a ruthless instructor pushes him to his limits. From Damien Chazelle, the director of La La Land, this electrifying film unfolds as a one-of-a-kind, jazz-fueled psychological duel between Miles Teller and J. K. Simmons, where ambition turns into obsession.
Damien Chazelle ne suit aucunement les arcanes du film musical habituel. Son film relève quasiment du thriller, tant il est plein de suspense dans le parcours de ce jeune musicien enthousiaste confronté à un mentor despotique. Un film coup de poing, coup de foudre, coup de gong : à voir absolument !

The quest to be the best is a familiar film story, but if director-writer Chazelle has achieved anything here, it’s a deeply and richly different take on that journey – not only examining the cost of struggle but the reward of it, showing both what it takes to be great and what happens when you don’t have it.
