Winner of 6 Academy Awards including Best Director for writer/director Damien Chazelle, and winner of a record-breaking 7 Golden Globe Awards, La La Land is more than the most acclaimed movie of the year — it’s a cinematic treasure for the ages that you’ll fall in love with again and again. Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling star as Mia and Sebastian, an actress and a jazz musician pursuing their Hollywood dreams — and finding each other — in a vibrant celebration of hope, dreams, and love.

Did you know?
- The audition scene, where the casting director interrupts Mia’s emotional performance to take a phone call, was actually inspired by one of Ryan Gosling’s auditions in real life.
- Only 30 dancers were used for the “Another Day of Sun” sequence. Most of the people and cars seen in the far background are CGI.
- Shares the record for most Oscar nominations (14) with Titanic (1997) and All About Eve (1950). La La Land is the only of the three to not win Best Picture.
- The first movie shot entirely on film to earn an Academy Award for Best Cinematography since Inception (2010) won six years prior.
