Deeply enjoy this movie but I am not as musically inclined as the characters in this movie, so I was wondering – Is JK Simmon’s character right when he goes on his rants? Is Miles Teller off tempo? Is that trombone guy out of tune in the beginning? Or am I as the average viewer with no musical background, just fooled into believing I’m not capable of hearing the subtle mistakes and thereby tricked into believing JK is correct when he actually isn’t? Because that changes his character. Is he just yelling and intimidating because he thinks it’ll make them better even though they’re already flawless? Or does he hear imperfections?
