La La Land
Damien Chazelle
Boy meets girl: he is a jazz musician, she dreams of being an actress... It’s a simple formula with a modest budget, but this enthusiastic tribute to the golden age of musicals was a global triumph. At only 32 years old and with only two films under his belt, the gifted Damien Chazelle has garnered more awards than most of his peers in an entire career (for La La Land, six Oscars, seven Golden Globes, eight BAFTAs, and many more). A good old-fashioned romp, irresistible and intoxicating.
