- Even when the director called cut on the set, Miles Teller often played the drums and didn't let himself stop until he was exhausted.
- The filming cycle of the film is only 19 days, and the entire production cycle is ten weeks (days), so hastily to be able to catch up with the registration deadline of the Sundance Film Festival.
- Dane De Haan dropped the role of Andrew in the film and was later replaced by Miles Teller.
- Miles Teller has been playing drums since he was 15 years old. During the filming process, the calluses on both hands were worn out, and the drumsticks and skeleton were stained with blood.
- In the slapped scene, J.K. Simmons and Miles Teller were doing things in the rehearsal process, but they slapped them firmly in the last shot.
- At first, Damien Chazele could not find the funds, so he could only make the film story into a short film. In 2013, the short film won the Sundance Film Festival Short Film Jury Award before receiving investment.
- The film was adapted in part based on Damien Chazerley’s real experience of joining the band in high school. He was afraid of their band teacher at the time.

Although it is great, I very much agree with the one-star short review. In fact, the film keeps zooming in on the evil details, but when you are really willing to observe this level so close, it already implies your praise for it.

This film is an insult to music. From the beginning to the end, it was soaked in the vulgar values of the United States that made me extremely disgusted. With the ambition to be the best, you should join a Wall Street investment bank to trade stocks, go to Silicon Valley to open a high-tech company, go to Ivy League academics to move bricks to get explosives awards, but music needs emotion, talent and love instead of being blinded by the ambition to be the first. JB trains into a skilled eight-level fitter. It's really vulgar to force the turtles to get home

Andrew: But is there a line? You know, maybe, you go too far and you discourage the next Charlie Parker from ever becoming Charlie Parker?
Terence Fletcher: No, man no, because the next Charlie Parker would never be discouraged.
