Whiplash - Scene Breakdown, Analysis & Comparison


In this dissection of Whiplash, I focus predominantly on the technical side of the film. I look at different techniques used by the film's director, Damien Chazelle, and what he does to make the movie so great. Whiplash. Chazelle. Sony Pictures Classics, 2014. https://twitter.com/JackMoviereview http://www.jacksmoviereviews.com/
