La La Land sums up lives of millennials

Rating: 8/10 (26 January 2017)

Career and aspirations have higher priority than love, that is how most of the millennial think. Drive to achieve dreams takes over anything and everything in life. In the process of doing so important people helping you succeed are left behind. Only when you reflect back after achieving success, you feel the void left your life.
Something similar happens with Mia (Emma Stone) and Sebastian (Ryan Gosling). She wants to become an actress and He wants to revive Jazz by opening his own bar that plays Jazz. Sebastian to earn livelihood and to save enough money starts playing in a band. Mia doesn't like that as she thinks that he is living a false life. At the same time she is losing all hopes of making it as an actress. Sebastian for his empathetic nature and love for Mia makes sure that she takes her last chance at the making as an actress.
To make it big in their lives they move on separate paths and at the end of the movie their paths intersect, where both had achieved their dreams. Pain can be seen in eyes of both as both had made it big but without each other and it is evident that has left a big void in their hearts. The end of the movie brings you back to reality and makes you think twice whether there are ways to achieve your dreams by still being with the love of your life. For few who have experienced some thing similar, end of the movie is an emotional ride. I personally liked the movie for its music, all the love and bite of reality.
Emma Stone will surely get Oscar for her performance. Ryan Gosling better luck next time.
