            I’ve been waiting anxiously to see the next project from Damien Chazelle since his incredible feature debut, Whiplash and his upcoming musical, La La Land has already been regarded by many as a guarantee for a Best Picture nomination this year. We’ve seen some teases but the real first trailer has landed today and it just further gauges my excitement for this movie.

            La La Land is a story about an aspiring musician and actress who become star-crossed lovers in Los Angeles. The movie has a bigger theme about dreams, desires and romance that could inspire the best out of others. It’s a heart-warming presence and this trailer further adds to that. This could wind up being one of the best movies of the year and one of my favorites and I can’t wait to see it.

La La Land opens in theaters on December 2^nd and stars Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone. Check out the trailer below that is nothing short of awe-inspiring.
