La La Land (2016)
May 2018 -- Treasures from the MI Film Collection

Directed by Damien Chazelle | Emma Stone, Ryan Gosling

The mystique and romance of 21st century Los Angeles is captured in this musical about youth, talent and ambition. Mia is an aspiring actress struggling with inattentive casting directors and a day job as a barista. Sebastian is a jazz pianist coping with employers who insist on traditional playlists. Both are talented and driven. Are they destined for each other? This film offers wonderful dance numbers and songs, but a more bittersweet story than most traditional musical comedies.
