In this very same movie Richard Dreyfus throws a fit about the 'voicing' =
on one particular piano he is playing...but the note is simply WAY out =
of tune...I guess Hollywood figured no one could tell the difference =
between voicing and a really bad unison...and sadly, for the most part =
they are right...

Best,

    Watching  the movie "The Competition"--  A young pianist is checking =
the tuning on his practice piano, playing chromatically, all unisons =
perfect. Suddenly one note is way ,I mean WAY out. He stands up,reaches =
into his coat pocket and pulls out a tiny tuning lever, looking somewhat =
like  the size of those pinsetters w/ handles. He intuitively knows =
which string is flat and proceeds to pull the string right up in perfect =
unison ! The magic of the movies allowed this to happen while moved the =
pin in the wrong direction !=20
