Colourful, Different and Full of Music

Rating: 9/10 (31 January 2018)

We got used to happy endings in love stories. But what Damien Chazalle did in La La Land is breaking these rules.
With all its colours, musicals and actings this movie creats an unexpected world. At first I must say I can't imagine more eligible couple (Ryan Gosling-Emma Stone) for this movie. They suit perfectly for this story. The way Ryan Gosling plays piano is so good that no surprises for he played in a band at his young ages. Also Emma Stone's acting and her voice are lovely so I guess we are all happy for her to win Oscar prize.
The thing makes this story special is the election. Two dreamers in a tale. Is it really possible? Which one do you choose? Your love or your dream? The conflict between them is adapted perfectly into the screen.
There are two scenes make me so emotional (rest of them are peaceful and enjoyable I think). When Mia and her housband enter random place she realises its name is Seb's. Actually Sebastian didn't like this name which is suggested by Mia. Despite this he named it Seb's. It means something, right? The second one is when Sebastian sees Mia in Seb's he plays piano and sings "City of Stars". And after that they just smile at each other. That's all. No words, just a smile. And she leaves Seb's. It was an affective scene.
It has been two weeks since I have watched this movie but I still mutter "City of Stars". Good cover. I strongly suggest you the ones who haven't seen it yet. It will colour your lives.
