Miles Teller in Whiplash (2014)

FAQ

Whiplash

FAQ

    More than likely Fletcher took it because he had said he did not want to see another folder left laying around. Another possibility is that Andrew either hid the folder or lost it on purpose to sabotage Tanner and take his place as the core drummer.
