La La Land is a 2016 American
romantic musical comedy-drama film written and directed by Damien Chazelle and
starring Ryan Gosling, Emma Stone, John Legend and Rosemarie DeWitt. The plot
follows a musician and an aspiring actress who meet and fall in love in Los
Angeles. The film's title refers both to the city of Los Angeles and to the
idiom for being out of touch with reality.
Chazelle wrote the screenplay in
2010 but was unable to find a studio willing to finance it without compromising
his creative vision. Following the success of his 2014 film Whiplash, the
project was eventually picked up by Summit Entertainment. La La Land premiered
at the Venice Film Festival on August 31, 2016 and was released in the United
States on December 9, 2016. It has grossed $138 million worldwide against a
production budget of $30 million.
La La Land received critical acclaim
upon its release, and was regarded as one of the best films of 2016. Critics
praised Chazelle's screenplay and direction, Gosling and Stone's performances,
Justin Hurwitz's musical score and the film's musical numbers. At the 74th
Golden Globe Awards, the film set a record for the most awards won by a single
film, winning seven awards: Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy, Best
Director, Best Actor (for Gosling), Best Actress (for Stone), Best Screenplay,
Best Original Score and Best Original Song ("City of Stars").
