Review of La La Land (2016) by Rubsomebacononi — 09 May 2019
This movie is the perfect mix between an homage to classic musicals and a modern take on film. The 4-season metaphor was remarkably meaningful looking back at the movie. The idea that life happens in seasons is powerful, and that sometimes great things come to an end. The cute couple doesn't always end up together.
The music was the best I've ever heard. As I watched the opening scene play before me, I was inspired by their choreography and musical complexity. I was instantly entranced in the mood of the movie. La La Land takes a well-paced approach to the idea of Hollywood and shows the biting realism of life.
Overall, the movie mixes musical and instrumental prowess with skilled performances from Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling to make a film that felt more real than any I've watched before.
