MR-2 Drumline

I have not watched drum line until I watched this movie, because there are no famous marching bands with a drumline in Japan. Drumline means marching band, I think. When I watched this movie at the first time, I was really excited, because the beat was so fast. I couldn’t believe that the beats were made by the people who were in the movie.

My favorite scene is when Devon Miles, who is the most important drummer in this movie, graduated from his high school. When he changed the beat, people looked like they were having fun. I thought that this movie must be interesting for me, because the first scene made me excited. The most shocking thing was Devon couldn’t read music. I can’t play any musical instruments, so I thought that it’s OK, because he has great rhythm. However, the marching band must be in one united body, and it was hard to teach him how to read the score, because everyone needs more effort for themselves. I felt that if he was not too self-conscious but kind to everyone, people who loved him would teach him that. I think that he was intoxicated with his talent, and that was his only fault. I think that is normal and just human. Everyone, including heroes in history, have some faults, so we want to be perfect.

On the other hand, Sean who was Devon's percussion leader, doesn’t miss his efforts for drum line, so he was respected people who are members. However, he was not perfect, too. He was jealous of Devon’s talent, and wanted him to go away. This movie showed us such a dark side of people, but when we finished watching we can be refreshed. That is a great point of this movie, and I was really moved. The last scene when Devon took part in the band finally and they won was so exciting, and I cheered for them without realizing it. I want to feel the band with my eyes and ears. If the band like drum line are in Japan, it will be great cheering for members of sports.

That's all. Thank you for reading : )
