Academy Conversations: La La Land

[@nelisdabomb]

This movie is so magical. Even after 2 weeks of seeing it, I can't stop thinking about it or listening to the soundtrack. Chazelle and Hurwitz are amazing. And Ryan and Emma's chemistry is lovely.

[@bruceeugene7500]

I know it is kinda off topic but does anyone know a good website to stream newly released series online?

[@keatonnixon4541]

@Bruce Eugene i use flixzone. You can find it on google =)

[@mylessilas5141]

@Keaton Nixon Definitely, I've been using FlixZone for months myself :)

[@bruceeugene7500]

@Keaton Nixon thanks, signed up and it seems to work =) Appreciate it!!

[@keatonnixon4541]

@Bruce Eugene Happy to help :)

[@33Hanney]

Addicted to the Soundtrack. In love with the Story.

[@hessu275]

My favorite movie in a long time

[@hessu275]

Daniel Denisio Not true at all

[@rva]

HeikkiP yes it was very good

[@jonahwilliams4966]

I hope this movie wins Best Picture. It's so good I can't stop talking about it at home or in college

[@slowly7588]

Jonah Williams It's just amaaazing

[@jonahwilliams4966]

I agree

[@KC-kw7ii]

I have seen Hacksaw Ridge and I absolutely love it, but I think La La Land should get Best Picture, it's an amazing experience (coming from someone who isn't actually really fond of musicals). I also think Damien Chazelle should get the Best Director award, his work on the film was almost perfect.

[@SpicyChicken560]

Sairi Ss Exactly man

[@rva]

Jonah Williams it did.. er then it didn't...

[@Chandasouk]

I walked out the movie fighting the urge to tap dance afterwards

[@nat.6704]

Chandasouk story of my life

[@Chandasouk]

You always have to fight the urge to dance? Must be tiring lol

[@CountryCowboy008]

Chandasouk I did tap dance my way out of the theater while singing Someone in the Crowd..

[@slowly7588]

Countrycowboy08 I danced while singing A lovely night

[@julieta5375]

Chandasouk me too!

[@ahe59]

This movie should win at least 10 Oscars, I hope...

[@ahe59]

Charles Heiston yeah, the thing is the Academy sometimes wanted to 'share' the award. Since LOTR I guess Oscar didn't have big winner anymore. So yeah I guess we'll see

[@mate_con_pochoclos]

Well, there were 6

[@katierowe922]

Despite all the widespread critical acclaim Damien has received for this masterpiece, he still manages to seem incredibly humble and modest. So articulate, so soft-spoken and so endearing. Amazing. Love you man

[@kevinzhang6623]

That's how you stay on top of your game

[@Denis-89]

I absolutely love the movie! Just what we need in these troublesome times!

[@mrrevan813]

Amen bro! I watched this in theatres three times and I was the only single dude in all three screenings, but I didn't care. It was that fucking good!!!

[@whoayuice6634]

what does "troublesome" refer to

[@andynguyen3271]

LOL same

[@Denis-89]

As if you don't know..

[@gilliandoplemore9357]

How funny it is to read this now

[@johnwesson2759]

The whole audience is just looking at Ryan and Emma the whole time. I know it.

[@christinastork8258]

I am obsessed with this film. I've seen it three times at the cinema so far. I cannot find a single flaw here - they had better rake in loads of Oscars!

[@susanna9158]

I saw it 3 times too! People think I'm crazy but it's really that good! I still want to see it again but I'll just wait for the blue ray to come out at this point.

[@christinastork8258]

I had to stop after the sixth time because I'm broke, haha.

[@Theweekndin]

7

[@JakeG-gp4qt]

In the year 2050, they should do an Oscars for all the films that came out in the century so far, and give La La Land most of the awards.

[@ragtimepants]

no.

[@djmotise]

Jake G 2187 Oh please. Just stop. Idiot.

[@denzelsw8732]

Come back even one year later and look back at this comment. It was good, not perfect

[@lewiscranston881]

Agreed and Bergman is a boss.

[@vedantpatel4479]

Lord of the Rings, The Dark Knight, The Hurt Locker, Slumdog Millionaire, Mad Max are some of the movies that also came out this century. Just think about your comment now...

[@TheFifaBaouss]

Loved this movie! Up there with Moonlight as the best of the 2016! That epilogue scene is honestly one of the greatest scenes ever!

[@anthonythompson403]

Ishan Rosha that will always be my favorite scene .. at first it was the opener . Lol

[@djmotise]

Ishan Rosha Oh really. You have really bad taste. Please explain how we are supposed to believe that she pulls over for dinner downtown and then just happens to walk right into a club which just so happens to be the club now owned by her former lover. Of all the thousands of places in Los Angeles, she and her husband just HAPPEN to waltz into this guy's club, without her ever suspecting a thing. The worst contrived bullshit coincidence in decades. Horrible film.

[@fadedflage]

Hahaha its literature, its a fantasy. It is not believable.

[@CountryCowboy008]

darren motise dude why do we need to see films if they're just as realistic as our everyday life? Even documentaries have a certain degree of modification away, no matter how slight it is, from the "reality".

[@cosmicgoddess5085]

fadedflage how is it not believable? Music & fantasy aside, the love story between Mia & Sebastian is entirely relatable on every level. It's a harsh slap in the face of reality. Love doesn't always work out.

[@praisdelotalumingan6229]

Did you know, if Damien Chazelle (32 years, 38 days at this year Oscar) win. He will be the youngest winner for best director? If he win, he will beat Norman Taurog (32 years, 260 days at the time he win) 84 years, 3 months records. And if Barry Jenkins win he will be the first African American winner. What a historic night it would be

[@jeebs621]

Praisdelo Talumingan I hope Damien wins, this film felt like quite the passion project, the amount of effort behind can truly be seen throughout the whole film, so many variables executed with the finest detail, what a great director.

[@praisdelotalumingan6229]

same here

[@emergencybowtie]

I love Ryan so much

[@RedJet-bq6fq]

La La Land was more than just a great movie, it was a masterpiece

[@RyanM268]

La la land will definitely win Best Picture this year! It is well-deserved to have 14 Oscars nominations. It is one of the greatest movies I've ever seen & it's truly a masterpiece.

[@justcutiecats2733]

Just La La Land 14 Oscars already, it's totally amazing movie.

[@hollie3897]

Incredible film. Chazelle and Hurwitz have got to win the Oscar for this. Lovely and original, a nice nod of the head to old Hollywood. And as someone who loves films from the 50s (and jazz music!) I'm so glad this has started to make a comeback

[@julianamolinasilva7418]

I've been in love with this movie since I first saw it, Damien, Emma, Ryan and the entire team is AMAZING

[@caroldaily]

My favorite movie! Thank you, Damien!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@enzomendanha8852]

I love how smart Emma is and how she’s totally into the movies that she makes.

[@vidabolinhorosa2823]

Best movie.

[@slowly7588]

La la land is one of the best movie of my whole life

[@richardsorokhaibam]

Honestly after watching this interview it seems Hollywood film making is so exciting and amazing experience !!! Hope La La Land wins big in the Oscars !!!

[@nat.6704]

My new fav movie of all time alongside Lost In Translation and Her!

[@nat.6704]

Abhra Rohatgi yep! I fact i heard there were some connections between both of movies!

[@lewiscranston881]

Natasha R We got a hipster over here

[@deathly87]

This movie makes me happy, cheerful and sad. I love La La Land so much, it is an amazing movie. Greetings from Hungary, Andrea :)

[@seb2733]

Damien Chazzele is one of my inspirations in film 🎥

[@allydening4241]

I'm super excited to go and see this again today

[@zanzer386]

I left the theater dancing too! Grabbed my top hat pop corn box, tap danced down the steps, grabbed an old guys hand...we twirled...he dipped me...we parted ways to the bathrooms! A glorious movie going experience. Thank you to everyone involved. Brilliant🎉

[@captainkavern]

emma stone made a very pertinent remark about the editing

[@gavinnelson5414]

Having seen Moonlight, Mancestor by the Sea, Arrival, Hell or High Water and Hacksaw Ridge... La La Land is still my favorite of the group. I really hope this wins best picture.

[@nikitalavrenov8048]

What a year it was for cinema!

[@danieljakubik3428]

I love this movie. Highly charming, entertaining with an emotionally engaging story and lead characters. Excellent in a great many respect. A love letter to Hollywood, to Los Angeles, to classic musicals.

[@aldiisnaeni1362]

La La Land is one of few movies I keep repeating to watch because it is indeed a definition of magnificent work of art

[@davidkim3193]

nice, love these conversations

[@fernandamena9461]

Loved this interview! I learned a lot and specially you realize how little details really make the difference in a movie. LA LA LAND has become my favorite movie, everything is perfect! I love the music, the story, the actors,the crew; literally everything

[@insightedu3278]

5:49 That moment when nobody wants to answer...

[@nilla1045]

Patrick Roncoski that part made my day

[@HelgaCavoli]

Patrick Roncoski, he asked about the feeling between actors/director so they didn't know 'cos 3 coulda answered.

[@insightedu3278]

Yeah, you're right, but the funny thing is that all of them seemed to look at Ryan lol. And honestly I didn't get exactly the meaning of the question (english is not my first language), so your argument makes sense.

[@izzza8693]

I speak English and the question didn't even make sense to me

[@mrrevan813]

+Camren Camren same here Interviewer: *long ass question Me: .......I'm sorry whaaa?

[@uqtang]

absolutely obsessed

[@TheatreofSymphony]

Still waiting for Arrival's conversation.

[@Bondoz007]

Great discussion from the cast & brains behind this film. The idea of how to establish their "universe" is intriguing. In the film Enchanted (with Amy Adams, Patrick Dempsey) one of its delights is the idea of that universe. We are told all the characters sing in the animated world, so when Giselle crosses over, she loses this ability when she gets closer to the human Robert in our world. The film even makes fun of that idea, it was very well done. It all helps to get the ideas across to the audience - thank you LaLaLand :)

[@araiizal1516]

I Love All Of This Movie

[@catalinadiazg]

THE BEST!!!

[@thedotoba]

hahahahahaha that last "thank you" from Emma was so weird lmao

[@greed4405]

LA LA LAND is the best picture in my life.

[@jennyberrocal7696]

My favorite movie! So beautiful! :'-)

[@PanGrotto]

Damien Chazelle is such a dork, he reminds of Jesse Eisenberg.

[@UtubeMaster30001]

Maxblind20 He's a genius!

[@djmotise]

Maxblind20 No he isn't. He's more of idiot.

[@trickyricky98]

darren motise An idiot who went to Harvard.

[@jackiemortes]

An idiot whose first film received critical acclaim and won few Oscars and second film which received the highest number of Oscar nominations. Yeah, he's an idiot, for sure

[@tarantino900]

My favorite movie of 2016!!

[@pppatty]

Pleasant enough but should win an award for the most over-hyped film of 2016.

[@abialston8476]

pppatty i disagree but you're entitled to your own opinion

[@zerozok]

I realy hoped that something as beaustiful as La La Land will happen to cinematography in my age.

[@Homericos1]

Vi o filme hoje e adorei! Sonhar e perseguir sonhos faz parte da vida. Chorei, ri e fiquei feliz mas triste por um amor que ficou distante...parabéns e obrigada por recriarem algo que nos fala da parte boa da vida.

[@exittiming2789]

Great. Big. Smile. Forever!

[@NoName-tx4no]

My favorite movie❤❤❤

[@itsnotlila]

is there a full version to this? I'm overanalyzing the hell out of the colors they used in the film and I need answers from Damien!! going crazy

[@NineAnutza]

it was filmed like the old musicals were in cinemascope and in one take most of the numbers and scenes, like the number at the top of them dancing, was shot in magic hour so it's all real not weird editing there, they shot 5 times in 45 minutes during two nights at the same hour and the second one of the second night was the one they used...they are lots of interviews where they go detail with all this stuff...

[@louise_piano]

LOLOL that leg crossing at the beginning was in sync XD

[@mate_con_pochoclos]

Soy el unico que le presta increible atención a Tom Cross?

[@silasleal646]

5:49 - What is this question? I'm brazilian, I understand writing only

[@nashkp2764]

i luv

[@Dim4323]

Wish they talked about the La La land mistake were they got mistaken. And ryan gosling laugh his head off.

[@arthurfla]

great movie

[@ivanbenisscott]

damien is the goat bro

[@rodrigocolina.1370]

I'll take this... xDHahahahaha... #Venezuela

[@VFXCommander]

I guess we have a new rival for the The Lord of the Rings.

[@jetman1895]

the guy in the far left, is that David Lindhagen?

[@anthonythompson403]

Is there anymore interviews like this coming for people to attend ?

[@Zhaslan_K]

Райан Гослинг, какой же он горячий, боже, что с ним?

[@denzelsw8732]

I think if I hadn't read the comments of videos like this, I would've enjoyed the movie a lot more. Was too overhyped and didn't meet my expectations

[@stevegeorge7773]

Monolithic film! Well done you!

[@koubl]

The interviewer is way too, shall we say, overexcited?

[@L1LT4T3R]

Luke Koebele I would be too if I was in front of all these awesome people

[@straak]

This is the Academy Theater in Beverly Hills -- one of the best venues in the world for film, and they are in front of a group of their peers, nominated for best picture of 2016. To put an analogy to it: If you were a Catholic, that's like going before the Pope at the Vatican to be considered for sainthood. It's a charged room and most people in their are excited.

[@djmotise]

Kevin Rubio funny, I never heard of it, and I lived in LA many years.

[@djmotise]

Kevin Rubio Your analogy is absurd. And false.

[@straak]

Have you ever screened a film at the Academy? I have. And I'm a former Catholic who has met the Pope (John Paul II) so... I beg to differ.

[@carlosxd3595]

Mi pregunta es¿Qué es primero, la música y luego el montaje o bien la actuación sobre la música?

[@sandramilfort9261]

This movie is magical. The interviewer is not sympathetic at all.

[@appleslover]

the film was so boring

[@Froyofreeze]

Omg it was such a bore and overrated

[@johnsailorsgoat]

Mood&Music&Lyrics Can't satisfy everybody.

[@Froyofreeze]

JSN True, I was expecting it to be entertaining like old Hollywood but it's no where close. I had to watch some Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly after, to feel better.

[@sebastianlifoon]

Mood&Music&Lyrics lalaland is the closest thing u can get from the old Hollywood，maybe u should take the time machine，and go back to the old hollywood

[@Froyofreeze]

Li Terence please get me a time machine, this is the best time to have one.

[@julieta5375]

You all talking about the "Old Hollywood" but just remember... Jazz is about the future. Cinema is evolving as we all should do too. It's imposible to get the old hollywood, so our only choice it's to praise the past by seeing this kind of films, were the past has our time's beautiful characteristics. La La Land it's a gorgeous film.

[@Homericos1]

Vi o filme hoje e adorei! Sonhar e perseguir sonhos faz parte da vida. Chorei, ri e fiquei feliz mas triste por um amor que ficou distante...parabéns e obrigada por recriarem algo que nos fala da parte boa da vida.
