One of the best openings in any movie.

[@RyanTheCreator]

I think it'd have made for a far greater credits scene, putting it right at the start of the film was quite a mistake as many people walked out/stopped watching because of it. Damien Chazelle said it's to make sure people are aware of what to expect and that it's a musical... yet ironically nothing else in the movie even comes close to this. If it was at the end, I think it'd summarise the film and put a nice message on it, perfect to lift spirits after the emotional ending.

[@RaptorJesus.]

apparently it was cut into 3 shots, with super sneaky cuts, i'd guess the first is when the blue car at 0:53 covers the whole height of the screen. there is almost certainly another at 2:38, and i thiiiink the last is at 3:03 when the guy jumps on the car, when he jumps off, the guy with the hat appears behind him (the same guy who was on the truck at 2:55) :D it really is a beautiful scene and masterfully choreographed and edited :)

CGI helps - looks like one take but I bet it's not

[@ChrisTailor]

@@kvdp9543 the behind the scenes videos show how a lot of the scenes in the film were done in one take - including this one. Shot on Panavision too, I believe it was on an Arri Trinity stabiliser and they introduced the camera operator to the actors as the other actor in the scene, basically as if they were filming from a person’s perspective - unbelievable direction and creative vision

@@georgelaxtonRight, freeways are nightmare infrastructure

[@kilodeltaeight]

Ironically, these ramps connect the Harbor Freeway’s Express Lanes - which host the Metro J Line BRT - to the Century Freeway’s HOV lanes, where the Metro C Line runs down the median. Directly under this scene is the Harbor Freeway station where those lines connect. So, despite being in a fake traffic jam, they’re in one of the more transit rich parts of South LA.

This scene always gives me chills. It's a groundbreaking and incredible accomplishment. A tracking shot for the ages. Not to burst anyone's bubble, but it's not one continuous shot. There are three edits in it all together, that reveal themselves when you watch it 100 times like I have. Plus, I watched a mini documentary that explained everything that went into filming this. I won't spoil anything else about it, it's easy to find on Google if you're so inclined. Bottom line, though, this is an wonderful and awe inspiring sequence. I never get tired of it.

I personally have never been a fan of this film. I understand why people love it, I just never really got the same feeling whilst watching it. However, as a film student who has now had to study this film, I can say that it is a true masterpiece. My opinion hasn’t changed; I still don’t particularly like the film, but technically, it is spectacular. There is so much thought put into every single thing you see on and off screen. Every little detail has been thought through and I love that. My favourite aspect of this film is it’s editing and Tom Cross truly did a fantastic job with this film.

What do film students do?

[@alice1169]

Lou Pereira pretty much what it says on the tin😂 you just watch films and analyse them in as much detail as possible

[@Doreamon3000]

Those who listen to this in 2024 will still gather here!!

[@saracennamo9723]

I love this picture! This scene gives me chill and cheer me up at the same time!

[@masrahman8231]

Always reminds me it's just the way we see life.. Just be cool, have fun and move on.. Go with the flow😎

[@bronzeriver3456]

Simply beautiful and awesome

[@planeguy95]

There's a reason this won the Best Cinematography Oscar - this is some of the best camerawork ever done

[@manuelorozco7760]

I know what you mean. Why can’t more recent mainstream movies take notes in this aspect. They are obsessed with darkly lit.

[@planeguy95]

@@manuelorozco7760 yeah totally, most films look saturated nowadays - like the life has been sucked out of them

[@manuelorozco7760]

@@planeguy95 Exactly. And it kept me away from most Disney live action remakes. As well as another movie musical from a while back. Give you a hint, it’s from two of the guys who did this soundtrack.

[@manuelorozco7760]

@@planeguy95 I'll tell you anyway, it was Dear Evan Hansen. Good stage musical but not something i would pay a ton of money to see again. Pasek and Paul are mixed bag songwriters. But at least i got off on the right foot with them with La La Land and the Greatest Showman. I rejected the DEH movie out of fear of not looking at the story from the same Pre Pandemic lens.

[@sophiejada966]

this is my favorite scene EVER its so beautiful my goddddd

[@BensTakeYT]

Brilliant opening number, very reminiscent of a lot of Jacques Demy’s work (Chazelle’s favourite director)

[@YaronYacobbi]

the best movie in the world

[@ikejugend]

People are awesome ❤❤❤ This movie keeps reminding me of that when I most need it

[@Germania9]

People complaining about 2018 having no good music are seriously missing out. And I'm a 90's kid.

[@nickryan6787]

Basically this song's theme is *jazz* so it's kinda an oldie sounding song

[@analisapena3086]

Do you “Only get” certain things?

[@manuelorozco7760]

Don’t you mean 2016

[@bracita15]

The rest of the southbound traffic driving on the 110 Freeway under the bridge like “Glad I’m not headed north!” 😂

[@camillanielsen3504]

Love this song soooo much!!!!

[@zamyafields6513]

Best opening scene ever! 🙌🏼

[@kittygi2334]

Masterpiece

[@LuisFelipe-iw1lo]

2:09 One of the moments where I most wanted to be an extra in a movie. Imagine the feeling of being there enjoying it with a bunch of people

[@jrnumex9286]

yea, a real tail gate party. not fat guys eating brats in football parking lot

[@sippingtea688]

Bravo! Best opening

[@michelle72albright]

Lives in my head rent free to this day! Whoever needs to hear it...there will always be another day of sun, to restart, keep going, it will all be okay 💗

[@user-kf6zs7dh5u]

This opening looks different before and after watching the whole movie. Always makes tears running down my cheek. Absolute masterpiece, this opening and movie.

[@FTChomp9980]

Still one of the best openings in a movie!

[@val.tw2]

This is one of the best BSO, so chilling

[@tambert3897]

I tried starting this in traffic on the LA freeway once but somebody yelled at me to get back in my car.

[@andrewwiddel77]

Movie starts, I am catched and full in love. Its so awesome.

[@elisenaessens4915]

POV you’re to pilot in your airplane seeing this

[@Satanna.avemaria]

I would love it if they did more films like this. The world needs it. I really thought after lala land we’d see more musicals like this.

[@manuelorozco7760]

The last great musical I watched was The Greatest Showman
