I've had to in highschool choir. Our choir instructor was a perfectionist who hammered us into a well oiled machine. He did it through rage and fear. When I was doing a tour of the school before applying (was a private school) I sat in on a rehearsal where the choir sang a beautiful rendition of Mozart's Lacrimosa...then the choir director told the entire choir "that was a mediocre performance" and I was ushered out. What followed was four years of the best of times and worst of times in a choir ran by a perfectionist with anger issues. But we sang beautifully at all of our performances to standing ovations.

@D DOG Honeslty Fletcher needed the cops called on him more than anything. dude is a psychopath.

for me and evmerging when we were young it was our gym teacher swearing at us throwing metal objects at us telling us to do 100 pushups while he ate a subway sitting on the floor.

It sucks the joy out of music there by defeating the purpose

I grew up learning under a Fletcher. She was an old lady but watching this movie I felt how she was the same person as Fletcher

Fr, no one talks about this but it is disturbing. Andrew is kinda thinking that... Or at least that's what it looks like.

That's how legends made , you need to step out of your comfort zone , and if some one abuses you out of your precious comfort zone you'll reach the highest possible, i mean you can always quit if you to comfortable to step out of it

Anti-bullying policies are the greatest tool bullies have ever been given.

It’s kind of a military mentality. That’s why drill sergeants exist. It does toughen you up and make you more responsible or fear being unprepared. Is it worth the anxiety and mental health of the students? That’s the conflict the movie delves into

@@Keptaro Demolished? He's talking about blame, he didn't blame him for losing it.

@@G0DofRock Fletcher himself never takes responsibility for anything he has ever done. He never does accept the blame. I would be sympathetic to his worldview if he did this. Maybe Fletcher is right, and there is a jazz musician out there that only could become a Miles Davis through his abusive teaching style. However when confronted with the consequences of his actions, he denies it. He lies to his class about why his previous student dies, and when he is fired from the school he blames Neiman, even though out of all his students Neiman is the one who might might have made it all worth it. If Neiman had to give up everything to become the greatest he showed he is willing to accept that. He broke up with Nicole once he realised this, what's more he fully acknowledged it, not appealling to any fake motivation such as trying to protect her. But when Fletcher is faced with the same dilemma, having to confront the cost, he turns it on other's and actively tries to punish the people who force him to confront it. Fletcher only speakes of why his methods are justified, but they're just words. Ultimately this makes him a coward.

nothing to do with it?

this scene is about lame excuses, only that Fletcher knewing that found the oportunity to test the kid in competeition, look how he looks him all the time like a predator during the theme lol, it's like "I did that move to have you in this situation and getting away with it"

High risk high reward. Sounds like Fletcher to me.

Could have just as easily been testing Carl to push him to stop relying on the Sheet music, force his 'Charlie Parker' moment. At any rate if Fletcher took the folder he could've easily handed it back over and pretended its his spare.

@@Beardboythegreat This is most likely the what he may have been doing. He may have took the folder initially as punishment for disregarding his warning about leaving folders laying around, but he probably also saw it as an opportunity to test Carl and push him. A fly or die moment. Also tanking the band for the sole sake of absolutely humiliating someone even at the risk of his own reputation is something he totally would do, considering that's exactly what he attempts to do to Nieman at the end of the film.

@@Beardboythegreat the handing back part probably wouldn't work. Usually people who own music charts themselves -- especially a whole folder -- can easily tell its theirs even already assuming that they haven't wrote notes in their book already. But having said that, he definitely have written notes everywhere in the music sheets.

Tbh if Neiman didn't know the music by memory, Fletcher could still say that he was teaching them a lesson by stealing the folder and then give it back.

@@jbc242424 idk man, some conductors do that, especially in jazz band. It's a sign of the trust he has in his players and their skill, my jazz director always walked away and trusted us to follow each others tempo and become one. It was wack sometimes but it's great way to form unity.

Could've been someone from a rival school

destroyermaker neiman hid it, he knew he couldn’t play it by heart so he hid it because he knew it

That janitor is Schwartz from Henry danger

In those 10-20 seconds that Andrew left the folder on the bench, who is the ONLY person we know of who was in the vicinity? Tanner. If Fletcher was anywhere near the folder, he would have run into Tanner, and probably exchanged words. Also, if Fletcher DID find a folder lying on a bench, we all know what he would have done... he would have screamed his ass off at the nearest student standing there (Andrew) "WHO THE HELL LEFT HIS FOLDER ON THE BENCH!!!! HUH????!!!!" He wouldn't have secretively grabbed it and snuck away.. that's NOT his style.

@@djbenje4019 except it was actually in the original script

Yes, and he definitely knew Andrew knows it by heart, he wanted him on the set but didn’t want him to think he earned the part.

Ik who else would ?

@@IntergaIactico I don’t think he knew that Andrew knew it, it was him testing Andrew’s commitment (if he learned it by heart or not) + punishing the core member fucking up by leaving it on a chair.

Remember it’s a competition as well. I can see some snotty competitors stealing it. Who knows.

When Neiman came in to play after his car crash, tracking blood all over the auditorium instead of going to the hospital, Fletcher fired him anyway, Pretty sure that is him not believing in his talent

@@SOLOcan talent doesn't really mean much when you have a fucked up hand and probably a few broken ribs..

@@anonymoususer638 But why stop teaching him?

@@SOLOcan Based on the ending, you can see that Neiman only truly shined when he took control, even telling fletcher "I'll cue you in". It's also ambiguous whether or not fletcher was being petty or truly believed in Neiman when he invited him to the Jazz concert, but I think the latter makes more sense.

​@@anonymoususer638 If Neiman didn't end up challenging Fletcher do you think he would have found another way to push Neiman? No of course not. If that was the eventual outcome, Fletcher would be satisfied with destroying Neiman's music reputation and that would be the end of the story. However perhaps for Fletcher becoming the next great is contingent on overcoming adversity through direct confrontation of the teacher. There is no other way. Sure I can see that. However if Neiman, after having suffered another humiliation, commits suicide, do you think Fletcher will lie to other people about what happens? Of course he will, he already does that. Fletcher never takes ownership of any of the actions, he lies about his part in the suicide of his original protegee, abandons his current student when he becomes unstable despite the fact he did instead *proves* he has required dedication he is looking for, and he blames others when forced to confront his consequences, taking revenge on Neiman for telling the truth I'll now reframe the question, do you think Fletcher wants the next Buddy Rich, or do you rather think that Fletcher wants to be the teacher of the next buddy rich? When Neiman realised it would take everything to become great he breaks up with his current girlfriend. What's important however is when he does he doesn't come up with some fake excuse that he's really doing it to protect Nicole. He's brutally honest, Nicole will hold him back. Neiman trying embodies Fletchers philosophy. Yes he hurt Nicole, but he doesn't shy away from what that makes him look like, he completly acknowledges he's a dick, he takes ownership of that. The only thing that matters is the music, it doesn't matter what people think of him. If destroying people is what it takes to create the next great, then so be it, but Fletcher doesn't want that. Fletcher should say, yes I caused Casey to commit suicide, yes I infact I do abuse my students. That is the cost, it will be worth it. But when it's time for him to personally pay the cost he avoids this duty. Is he willing to give up his reputation as the teacher of the next great? No, he is only willing to take on that mantle after Neiman becomes the great. Fletcher is just a coward.

Oh the why is simple to understand in my opinion, it's not really a matter of interpretation. We discover throughout the movie that to Fletcher, finding his prodigy was more important than whatever reputation he had. Just another instance of pushing people cause that's the only way to reveal what's truly inside. He talks about this repeatedly. He saw an opportunity and took it.
