Here's to the ones who Dream!!

Rating: 10/10 (17 December 2016)

This movie needs to be seen in theaters not anywhere else. The story telling, cinematography, lighting, camera work, screenplay, direction and chemistry between characters are all top-notch. Not to mention the breathtaking music composed by Justin Hurwitz. Everything falls right into place to make this a unique cinematic experience. The song in the movie "The fools who dream" aptly conveys the message of the movie "Here's to the ones who dream, foolish as they may seem, here's to the hearts that ache, here's to the mess we make".
The movie is already leading golden globe award nominations and won in 8 out of 11 nominated categories in the Critic's Choice Awards. I think it will also lead the Oscar nominations and possibly win in most of the nominated categories.
If you have faintest of love for musicals you will end up loving this movie. And even if you don't usually watch musicals, La La Land may invigorate in you a love for musicals. A beautiful contemporary interpretation of a timeless theme makes this movie a must-watch.
