La La Land

“I guess I’ll see you in the movies.” To end off my birthday, I decided to rewatch (for the 4th time) one of my all time favorite movies. And it was an AMAZING way to end off my birthday. Don’t get me started on La La Land. This film holds such a special place in my heart. Since the first time I witnessed it, it’s been on my mind since. I believe this to be a masterpiece. Everything about it is just, fucking beautiful. Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone just work too fucking well. Their chemistry is unmatched. This movie gets me feeling something every time I watch it. From the music, to the acting, to just the cinematography, I just love it all so much. I might just make it a birthday tradition to rewatch this film every year. Emma Stone. That’s all I need to fucking say. I love Emma Stone so much. She’s so beautiful and talented. One of my favorite actresses. Like, no one knows how much I motherfucking adore her.  I love the way they use color in this movie. Everything is so vibrant and color is used so perfectly to set the tone of the scenes. The way I can talk about this movie for hours is crazy. I can literally sit down with someone and just talk and talk about it without running out of things to say. Justin Hurwitz does not fucking miss with the score. I have been bumping to the La La Land score since I first heard it. I don’t know how much time’s I’ve continuously listened to Epilogue.  And the end. Chazelle always nails the end. Whiplash, La La Land, Babylon. All perfect, 10/10 endings. He really knows how to close on an astounding note. I lowkey want to rewatch Babylon after this. I am and will always be obsessed with this movie. I will never get sick of it, no matter how many times I rewatch it. The future generation of my blood will know this movie. I’ll show it to my kids, and they’ll show it to theirs, and so on.  I can’t imagine a world where La La Land didn’t exist. Just pure perfection. Overall, I love and will always love La La Land with all my heart and I could literally talk about this film, TO ANYONE, for hours on end. I can make a whole entire ass essay about it. 99/100 for 5 stars (I know I’m continuously calling this a “perfect film”, and it is, it’s just not an 100, if ykwim). December ranked
