Song and dance; big on the romance! Must see!

Rating: 9/10 (8 May 2017)

Hollywood musical; Hollywood romantic comedy if you will. Mia (Emma Stone) is an attractive young lady pursuing showbiz fame serving coffee between auditions and meets Sebastian (Ryan Gosling), a talented jazz pianist searching for his dream of owning his own jazz club. Romantic flirtations lead to an intense love affair; but conflicting ambitions force them to make some tough choices and their relationship begins to fray and both will realize true love is too important to let slip away.
Song and dance scenes could have been cut a little shorter for me; but this movie is well written and acted. Scenery and sets are beautiful and some scenes just ooze romance. By far, should have won Oscar for Best picture. Gosling is charming and Miss Stone is what dreams are made of.
Also in the cast: J.K. Simmons, Jessica Rothe, Jason Fuchs, Callie Hernandez, John Legend, Terry Walters, Tom Everett Scott and D.A. Wallach.
