Directed by: Damien Chazelle
Written by: Damien Chazelle
Starring: Emma Stone & Ryan Gosling
Emma Stone plays Mia, an aspiring actress, while Ryan Gosling plays Sebastian, an aspiring jazz musician. Both characters are just trying to make it in modern day Hollywood, where dreams come true. But will their love get in the way?
This film brings various time periods into modern day while executing a love story of a couple reaching for the stars. In addition, this musical calls to Broadway with its choreography and singing as well as its continuous shots.
This film will definitely win for best picture for a comedy or musical because of its cinematography, plot line, and, of course, focus on Hollywood, which all those that vote for the Golden Globes and Oscars can relate to.
But a theme that keeps occurring this year in the movies, or maybe just my life, is this...as previously mentioned, collateral beauty in which you must give up something to get something else. You can't have it all.
Nevertheless, I thought this movie was inspiring for audience members to focus on their dreams or the one they love. Plus the music is very catchy; it makes you want to dance and sing along with the actors.
I do not think that Stone and Gosling will win though for best actress and actor considering the other nominees. Although they were both great, especially for this film, their performances are not award winning in my opinion.
But this film is entertaining, pleasing to the eye and ear, and overall amazing.
