Also note the scene where he is conducting
the orchestra in the Hollywood Bowl and he notices that the flower is missing.
BTW-my wife and daughter are musicians and they think it is comical the way Alex is conducting...there is no connection between the way he moves his arms and what the music is doing! He is simply thrashing away up there. John Cassavetes may have been a fine actor, but he is no conductor!

Oh YM! You have destroyed my trust in those who make movies. I feel so used. So... So dirty.
We have discussed this before YM....my son says the exact opposite. He thinks JC did a pretty good job in conducting. He has been in concert and jazz bands for many years and he feels JC did an ok job. Maybe I have brainwashed my own child!!!!!!
