What lovely, fluffy, romantic feelings this trailer stirs up.
It's the reunion of Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling for their third time and this third time promises a charm.
La La Land is from Damien Chazelle, he who brought us Oscar-winning Whiplash. The first trailer has arrived online a month ahead of its debut at the Venice Film Festival. Stone and Gosling reunite as Mia and Sebastian. Mia is an aspiring actress who can't catch a break and finds herself serving up coffees to the stars as opposed to being one. Sebastian is a down-and-out jazz piano player who can barely fill a dingy bar. As their love affair begins so too does their careers and what once brought them together begins to rip them apart.
Also starring in La La Land is Chazelle's pal JK Simmons, Rosemarie DeWitt and singer John Legend. La La Land is expected to reach our cinemas in early 2017.
