Finally watched this movie, and it is one of the worst I've seen in years. Great acting, but seriously flawed message. The message is that if you are a horribly abusive a-hole, you will win in the end. Abusive a-holes create great musicians. That is the message. While I will agree that many abusive people are never held accountable, I can say from experience as a psychologist that children and adults who are emotionally abused do not win!
