One of the best films I have watched is definitely La La Land<\/a><\/em>. For the longest time, I have heard so much about this film and how it is so many people’s favorite movie. But I never understood the hype for it until very recently. <\/p>\n

La La Land<\/a><\/em> is a musical centered in Hollywood as two individuals fall in love. Emma Stone<\/a> plays Mia, an aspiring actress, and Ryan Gosling<\/a>, plays Sebastian, a struggling Jazz pianist. The characters meet and fall in love as they try to pursue their dreams. This is a beautiful movie about following one’s dream, falling in love, and the hard decisions that can intervene between the two lovers. <\/p>\n

This movie is filled with beautiful Jazz music, many colorful and beautiful scenes, and moments that make you fall in love with the story. The soundtrack in particular is very compelling. My favorite tracks from the movie are “Mia and Sabastian’s Theme<\/a>,” “Planetarium<\/a>,” and “City of Stars<\/a>.” The Music Library actually has a score<\/a> dedicated to the music in the film. The score<\/a> focuses on piano, vocal, and guitar chords arrangements for anyone to try.<\/p>\n

If you have not yet watched or heard about the amazing film La La Land<\/a><\/em>, I definitely recommend giving it a try! <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
