Time out in La La Land

 
This morning I spent two magical hours in the cinema watching the beauty that is "La La Land"
 
It was amazing.  Completely and utterly exquisite.  Beautifully done with every last detail spot on.  Perfectly directed, perfectly shot, perfectly choreographed,  perfectly acted, sang and danced by the two perfect leads.  I think you are getting the picture here!
It has a wonderfully old fashioned feel to it, yet it is slick and modern at the same time.
 
I cannot recommend this film enough, 
Go and see it on the big screen where it deserves to be seen, and then buy it on DVD and watch it over and over again (as I intend to).  I intend buying the soundtrack on vinyl too.
 
I hope it sweeps the Oscars!

  1. Another great thing about this movie: there just aren't any others like it! And yes, big screen is a must! As I was watching it (and I deliberately read absolutely NOTHING about it beforehand so as not to taint my view) I thought: this is a love letter to film, to LA, to Jazz, to Love itself! Having read some reviews subsequently it seems to be a feeling shared by many others! I'd like to go see it again, but I also really want to see T2 and Hidden Figures....aaagh! Too many great movies to choose from!
