La La Land
La La Land is the definition of a perfect musical. From the numbers, to the colours, and the dialogue too, this film is truly flawless. The exploration of fate and love is something Chazelle captures with incredible precision. We are left with the realisation that Seb and Mia had to lose each other to find themselves. They never had each others real interests, but they saw themselves in each other - and therefore they clung onto something which wasn't there. That prologue is something else, one of the most inspiring scenes in movie history.
Mia and Seb begin the film as optimistic, fierce and passionate - their dreams are swallowed by fiscal fears, and their love is consumed by their new found realism.
This film is truly flawless - I could say that a billion times.
