Synopsis

July’s Staff Pick Series: Whiplash, presented by Rhett! Every month, we showcase our hardworking Bear Tooth team’s favorite films. “Hi, I’m Rhett, and I’ve been a Bear Tooth projectionist since 2024. It’s the best job, and I’ve been thinking about my pick for a while. I was absolutely obsessed with Whiplash when it came out and have seen it dozens of times. It’s probably the definitive movie that got me into films, but I never got to see it in a theater. It’s intense, horrifying, and doesn’t let you breathe until it’s over. The ending is the greatest ever, and I can’t wait to experience it here. I love watching movies at Bear Tooth more than anything—it’s a true pleasure to work here. Thank you! :)” Under the direction of a ruthless instructor, a talented young drummer begins to pursue perfection at any cost, even his humanity.
