My take away was that everyone in that scenario was shit
>Dohmnall Gleeson is a no-talent hanger on who lets himself be stepped on and abused out of a hope that he gets a modicum of fame by association
>Frank is a spastic with some amount of musical knowledge who's too disturbed to ever make anything beyond his schizophrenic Captain Beefheart homage music that no one but music snobs will convince themselves is good
>The frenchies are both turbo cunts who hang on to Frank because he feeds into their desire to be part of a weird band that makes music for no one, and abuse the normal guy in the band for no reason at all, other than they can get away with it because they know they can take Frank with them if the drummer ever gets uppity
I get that the movie was saying something about not glamorizing mental illness and the concept of the tortured artist, but everyone in that band was terrible and it muddies the message. Also the movie veers too hard into dull misery porn, why are bongs like this
