Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })Session Man is a 1991 short film (31 minutes) written and directed by Seth Winston.McQueen (James Remar) is a rock-and-roll guitarist. He once had dreams of stardom, but at some point gave up on that, and settled for a much less glamorous but lucrative career as a session musician. One night at 2 a.m. the phone by McQueen's bed rings with an offer of work, and just like that he's out the door.The job turns out to be from the Raging Kings, a hugely famous rock act that is in the studio trying to record a song called "Sixteen Tons". As McQueen arrives the band is having a violent argument—in fact, this is why McQueen was called—which end with Raging Kings lead guitarist Dean Storm quitting the band and storming out of the studio. With McQueen substituting for Storm on guitar, the band lays down the track. Suddenly, the stardom that McQueen long ago stopped chasing seems like it might be at hand.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); }) | |

| Session Man / int_40cc0c7e | comment |
Bittersweet Ending: At first it feels like a Downer Ending. McQueen seemingly has his big break at long last when he's offered a permanent role as a member of the Raging Kings, only to have it be snatched away minutes later when Storm comes back. He goes home, wearily climbs into bed, does a Thousand-Yard Stare up towards his ceiling—then his mouth curves into a half-smile right before the credits roll, indicating that he's content with his life. | |

Bait-and-Switch: When McQueen's phone rings at two in the morning with a British-accented man saying "I've got a job for you", it comes off as if McQueen is a criminal of some sort. Then we see him picking up a guitar case. | |
