How Whiplash Edits Itself


For educational purposes only. Whiplash is a film about power. Director Damien Chazelle, editor Tom Cross, and actors J.K. Simmons and Miles Teller each bring their talents to the table to edit the film in a way that highlights the theme. I'm not an expert. Just a film studies minor.
