Tonight on Sky Cinema 2 at 3 it airs La La Land, musical directed in 2016 by Damien Chazelle with Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. The film tells the love story of Seb and Mia, a jazz pianist and an aspiring actress respectively. Both arrived in Los Angeles dreaming of a career in Hollywood, but the former is forced to play commercial songs and argue with employers because the music he loves is punctually different from the one requested, the latter is instead rejected at all auditions. . Love allows the two boys to support each other and not give up, but just when success comes, the relationship goes into crisis and the two separate. When Seb and Mia meet again, it’s been five years. She is married and with her husband she accidentally enters a jazz club, run by Seb himself. Both seem satisfied with their professional life, but when their eyes meet, melancholy subsides. At the piano Seb sings their song and for a few minutes they both try to imagine what it would have been like if they had stayed together. La La Land is a tribute to the world of Hollywood and to the dreams that cinema still manages to create today. But unlike the musicals of the past, the film has descended into reality and does not end with the classic happy ending. In the end La La Land seems to suggest to us that although life does not discount and in most cases is very prosaic, romance and poetry are necessary for a more authentic existence. The film conquers critics and audiences. Costing $ 30 million, grossing $ 446 million and triumphs at the 2017 Oscars, getting 14 nominations and 6 statuettes: Best Director, Best Actress (Emma Stone), Best Cinematography, Best Production Design, Best Soundtrack, Best Original Song.
