It's alright

Rating: Null/10 (25 December 2016)

This film tells the story of a budding actress, who goes to audition after audition trying to get her break. She meets a jazz musician who is also waiting for a break in his career.
Looking at the ratings and the number of award nominations it has gathered, I thought it would be amazing. Indeed, the first scene of the traffic jam in the highway is great, as it is a continuous shot of people singing and dancing on the highway. After that, such musical number if far and few in between. The story is slow and drags on, fortunately the subplot about how they have to follow their dreams somehow strikes a chord with the audience. There is a number of songs that are good, but I expected more songs and less dialogues for a musical.
