Best Answer

Assuming this question is raised in response to her Trumpet playing scene in The Jerk, I can give you my opinion as a professional trumpet player. I believe that she does not really know how to play. However, I have the following observations:

The recording is definitely not her playing - she sometimes releases notes before the recording does, her breathing doesn't match the recording, and the trumpet she is playing has a sticky 2nd valve that isn't apparent in the recording

The fingering she is using is generally correct, but her fingers are slow and she doesn't have good control over her ring finger

The finger vibrato technique she is using matches the style of the performance and matches the recording

Her embrochure doesn't look correct

Based on these observations, I believe that she has musical training and definitely has been given a crash course on trumpet playing for filming this scene. However, I don't believe she actually can play the instrument.
