Keswick Film Club - La La Land

Synopsis

Our closing film is from the director of Whiplash, Damien Chazelle.

Wannabe movie star Mia (Emma Stone) and pianist Seb (Ryan Gosling) are both hobbled by frustrated ambition when they meet and fall in love, however success comes at a personal cost.

The ICO describes it as "The setting is contemporary Hollywood, the tone light and airy, the story simple but lent immense verve by the style of Chazelle's direction and sheer charisma supplied by Stone and Gosling."

Tipped for many awards, La La Land will close KFF18 on a high.
