Actually, I count only two edits, and if you look at the behind-the-scenes, there was not green screen. What you saw on-camera was really on-camera, and they really did shut down an entire freeway.
Damilola Odebo ya it was a lot of raw footage and it took them so many hours and takes. I just watched a video about it and there was so much detail put into it
+Louis Butson -- I agree with it being fairly basic, although I wouldn't call it "insanely" basic. That's getting on the hyperbolic side of things. It was still decently complicated enough, and some people were doing special stunts, that very few directors would actually try something like that, so on a technical level it's still impressive. The reason why you rarely ever see anything like this is because even though it doesn't take as long to perfect as a _Cirque du Soleil_ performance, it still takes time, and for a studio time is money. They like to rush over rehearsals, and reshoots are expensive, so directors normally don't have time to perfect a long take with a lot of independent elements going on at once.
Why would you start the movie with a smile? "Another Day of Sun" is literally one of the most depressing songs in the movie... it sounds happy but it's about the constant repetitive rejection of most actors in L.A.
@@notyouraveragegamergirl552 I disagree. If you smile at this song, you're listening to the melody but ignoring the lyrics. That's a full 50% of the song not reaching your brain. The song works because it's a juxtaposition of an upbeat melody and a depressing message. It's enjoyable, but sad too; it's bittersweet. Like most ABBA or Carpenters songs.
@@slashdisco I partly agree, but for anyone who's like me, I listen to music almost anytime I'm doing something else. So while I have listened to the lyrics and have understood the meaning behind them, it's not possible for me to focus on the meaning every single time I listen to it. And even when I do pay attention to those lyrics I can't help but find great enjoyment in the melody. One of my favourite songs is called Cold Cold Man, it's a song about someone trying to explain to their loved one that while they seem cold and distant, they truly do love them. It's a song that doesn't exactly have happy lyrics at points, but my god it sounds like one of the most upbeat songs I've ever heard. I'm not necessarily ignoring the lyrics, but I'm still enjoying it regardless.
In the meta-sense. The actress had the same dreams the character in the movie does i'm sure and she's now singing in one of the best scenes in one of the best musicals of all time.
@Pepper's Ghost, you might be right! And maybe not, cuz you’ll go 😱 if you knew an actor who dances like a king and sings like a bird ( or even better 😉 )! So actually you can’t know it, right?Just my opinion, okey? And please don’t judge my English cuz I’m not English, I learn a bit English at school. It’s very simple. There’s no one in my familie who has English/ American blood. I can do it all by myself, just... just saying. Thank you!!!! 😘🥰😍
This one of the most satisfyingly perfect scenes I've ever seen. The music, the singing, the tone, the cinematography, good God the cinematography. I'll never get tired of this scene.
My only quibble is that the vocals are mixed too low, and that is a problem throughout the movie. The cinematography and choreography are just outstanding.
You think so? I found the choreography to just be so-so. The coordination of everything is impressive, but the choreography not so much. That’s a problem through the whole movie for me actually.
@@markfrommaryland3825That might have been due to the cinema you saw it in. It sounded great when I saw it. I find that most of the chain cinemas have inferior sound. Even here in Los Angeles there are only a few places I will see films at for that reason.
I absolutely love this scene as an opener to the film. So often in movies, the background characters are just that, bland uninspired people standing to occupy screen space. This scene serves to show us that any person is just as much of a "main character" as Mia and Sebastian. They all have their own stories, and in terms of this world, are just as capable of breaking into song and dance. It also immediately places the viewer into the very outlandish 'la la land' of the movie, where everyone is happy and everything is perfect. Until of course, that illusion is broken minutes later and continues to be bent further and further throughout the movie before it is completely snapped
Near the end with random things (hoops, skateboardss, etc), really adds to the realizm. All these people have interests, and a live beyond this traffic jam.
That first girl singing about how she left her first love in Santa Fe to pursue her dream and how maybe if she gets famous he’ll think about how he used to know her carries much more depth than I thought on first listen. But when you actually listen to what she’s saying. It’s inspiring yet heartbreaking at the same time.
Him and the biker and skateboarder were last seen going towards the camera when it was scrolling down the left side of the barrier. Since it was all filmed in one shot, they couldn't just go back the way they came or it would be distracting to the dancers that took over after they left the scene. Their cars couldn't have been towards the ending point we saw them since people still needed to be there to dance on top of the cars, so they had to just kind of dance their way up front. The purple guy had to get over to the other side of the barrier so that every car can still have a person on it without the cars on the left side of the barrier lacking dancers. What you should be asking is where all of the people in the trailer went, since the only one we see at the end is the bass player
@@isaacgavino7593 At the beginning the woman in the blue shirt got out of a red sedan on the right side of the freeway but at the end she got into the bottom left car. The closest car in the 3rd column at the end had a guy in a red shirt get in. The person getting in is white. In the scrolling shot at the beginning it showed a black guy sitting inside.
@@piZzaMizzA2004 those aren't the same women. woman at the start had short hair and a button up, while the girl at the end that you're talking about has a long ponytail and a t-shirt. not sure about the other guys you're talking about but at the very least the women did in fact get in the right cars.
As happy and joyous as this beginning was, when I tell you that ending destroyed me…I left the theatre in sobs. I went through the entirety of the human experience in that film. Totally unexpected and pretty remarkable.❤

I came to this movie hating musicals, ended up being highly impressed, almost crying and wanting to listen to jazz more. If every musical was like this, I'd absolutely love that genre.
@@ingridcastellanos2613 THey started shooting at me...something about the color of shirt I was wearing..... it should've been blue on that part of the freeway.
My favorite thing about this is that it's a nod to all the "special skills" artists in LA. The flips and parkour are done by stunt people. The fan dancer and B-boy are specialty calls. The skateboard and bicycle are stunt units. The dancers (tap, hip hop, musical theatre) are their own unit. The band in the truck is sometimes a real group that a movie can hire together.
This is a directorial masterpiece in every sense of the word. Not least of which because, unless I'm mistaken, there are no cuts throughout the whole scene. Bravo to Damien Chazelle and his cameraman, cinematographer, etc.
@@craigj.7035 i mean i love the dark knight and nolan was the director that really got me into films (with memento particularly) but this opening is miles ahead of the dark knights technically. chazelle was amazing directing this movie and deserved that academy award
This scene inspired me to drop out of college and move to LA to become a dancer! After three months of failed auditions, I ran out of money and moved back to Ohio. Now I work as a cashier at a dollar store.
Some of what makes this scene brilliant is the way the camera is actively a part of the choreography. The camera moves in rhythm with the dancers who move in rhythm with the music. Its beautiful.

@@beth9603 - the traffic doesn't actually get to that level of gridlock on a daily basis. You're at least moving slowly at even the worst times - not standing so still you can get out and have a dance number ;)
@@myleschykerda902 I only met this kind of grindlock traffic once on 105 FWY Eastbound.. that's because there was a guy threatening suicide on 110 freeway ramp.. the same stretch of road where this song was shot.
I went into this movie reluctantly, i was dragged into it and im not the biggest musical fan so i was already expecting a waste, this intro, the song, the choreography, i was hooked and i can say i love this movie so much
I was at my friends house when I watched this movie. I had a list of movies and we randomly picked and it happened to be La La Land. We both weren’t thrilled, but we were IMPRESSED when the movie ended. I genuinely didn’t think I would love this movie this much. I hated musicals (expetion of High school musical and other disney musicals lol) and this seriously changed my views on this genre

in my opinion, the rest of the movie is nowhere near as good as this scene. fortunately for the movie, this scene is one of the best openings of any movie ever and the rest of the movie is pretty darn good.
Indeed. I actually dislike musicals so I was skeptical, I sat in my place in the movie theater and then this incredible scene turns up. I was WOW!. Straight to my eyes, to my ears and to my heart. Perfect.
i love whole movie, but yes, this scene is amazing! I prefer to watch this movie using dubbing or subtitle cause boxxy software has many dubbed & subtitle languages and it is for free
I'm not sure we collectively realize how incredible this intro is... one of the best (and most memorable) of all-time. An instant classic. It blows my mind that it's (nearly?) all one shot... and the timing of everything is perfect.
This also acts as foreshadowing of a “perfect world”. People wouldn’t expect to be so upbeat during a traffic jam and yet it presented in such a manner, then, finally hitting the audience with the title card, it was really well done.
When i saw this opening in the theater with my girlfriend, i told her right after the end of it :"woa that was a really good movie ! We can go". This opening alone worth the ticket price !
This scene fits theme of the film almost perfectly - it starts off with different melodies in different cars, but as song goes on, all people are starting to dance in the same perfect tact and timing, just like main character. They're are complete opposite characters and almost enemies for each other, but as film goes on, they're getting along and fall in love. And in the end of the musical number, everyone gets back in their cars and blend, boring life continues. Just like in the end of the movie Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling are breaking up and dividing again.(Sorry for my bad eng - my main language is russian :| )
it's funny, the ending of this movie is explained in the first lines of these lyrics: "I think about that day *I left him* at a Greyhound station West of Santa Fé We were seventeen, but *he was sweet and it was true* *Still I did what I had to do* 'Cause I just knew Summer Sunday nights We'd sink into our seats Right as they dimmed out all the lights *A Technicolor world made out of music and machine* *It called me to be on that screen* *And live inside each scene* "

I love this scene so much. It's so happy and hopeful but bittersweet at the same time, because you know most of them are not going to make it in Hollywood. :')
Such an incredible opening! If your interested, the director did a breakdown of how she directed this scene and it’s so fascinating to hear her thought process
This movie is a perfect example of “what’s old will always be new again”. Fantastic musical with contemporized cinematography on par with the classics.
it was also 104 degrees that day in LA. The heat makes the metal of the cars easier to dent. If this were done in 60 degree weather or when its not smoldering hot on the cars, the dancing on the cars wouldn't have caused actual dents because the metal would be much stronger.
che scena meravigliosa, che film meraviglioso! Questa scena poi è iconica, un piano sequenza difficilissimo, da sola vale (quasi) tutto il film. Superbo!
I remember watching this video a lot for my film studies class when I wrote an essay about La La Land, but this opening number is so good that I always come back to it!
The opening of lalaland is one of the reasons I love lalaland. All the music in lalaland is beautiful, especially when I listen to 'Another Day of Sun', I feel so happy. The music, scenery, choreography and camera movements in this scene are perfect.
Absolute perfection; easily one of the greatest movie scenes of all time. I wonder how funny it would have looked to motorists driving by and seeing a bunch of people dancing on top of all those cars lol.
We miss them when we are gone but remember that you both had good times together and it's best not to dwell on it. You can get through this,I know it's tough but you can do this I believe in you!😄😄😄😄😘😘😀😀🐏
My all time favorite opening scene, the whole first half hour, amazing. Just watched the entire film again tonight, for the 16th time. The best film of the year..
I believe that this song in beginning of the movie itself affirmed the claim for Best Cinematography at Oscars.This song is a masterpiece that'll be learnt by the students for years to come.
Amazing how this scene was choreographed and put together. It really works. I see why teenagers have taken to it and do their own versions. It is truly teenage music - full of rhythm and energy. It took me time to get into it, but now I think it's adorable.
I can't imagine how long it took to perfect this
Actually, I count only two edits, and if you look at the behind-the-scenes, there was not green screen. What you saw on-camera was really on-camera, and they really did shut down an entire freeway.

Probably not that long. The choreography was insanely basic

Gotta love how everyone just got into random vehicles that weren’t theirs at the end
Little did he know, they all got in the right vehicles. 😂
No, they actually were all in the same vehicles. Quite nice detail actually.
@@isaacgavino7593 At the beginning the woman in the blue shirt got out of a red sedan on the right side of the freeway but at the end she got into the bottom left car. The closest car in the 3rd column at the end had a guy in a red shirt get in. The person getting in is white. In the scrolling shot at the beginning it showed a black guy sitting inside.
@@piZzaMizzA2004 those aren't the same women. woman at the start had short hair and a button up, while the girl at the end that you're talking about has a long ponytail and a t-shirt. not sure about the other guys you're talking about but at the very least the women did in fact get in the right cars.
“hey honey i got us a new car”
As happy and joyous as this beginning was, when I tell you that ending destroyed me…I left the theatre in sobs. I went through the entirety of the human experience in that film. Totally unexpected and pretty remarkable.❤

I think about that day
I left him at a Greyhound station
West of Santa Fé
We were seventeen, but he was sweet and it was true
Still I did what I had to do
'Cause I just knew
Summer Sunday nights
We'd sink into our seats
Right as they dimmed out all the lights
A Technicolor world made out of music and machine
It called me to be on that screen
And live inside each scene
Without a nickel to my name
Hopped a bus, here I came
Could be brave or just insane
We'll have to see
'Cause maybe in that sleepy town
He'll sit one day, the lights are down
He'll see my face and think of how
He used to know me
Climb these hills
I'm reaching for the heights
And chasing all the lights that shine (lights that shine)
And when they let you down (it's another day of)
You'll get up off the ground (it's another day of)
'Cause morning rolls around
And it's another day of sun
I hear 'em every day
The rhythms in the canyons
That'll never fade away
The ballads in the barrooms
Left by those who came before
They say "you gotta want it more"
So I bang on every door
And even when the answer's "no"
Or when my money's running low
The dusty mic and neon glow
Are all I need
And someday as I sing my song
A small-town kid'll come along
That'll be the thing to push him on and go, go
Climb these hills, I'm reaching for the heights
And chasing all the lights that shine (lights that shine)
And when they let you down (it's another day of)
You'll get up off the ground (it's another day of)
'Cause morning rolls around
And it's another day of sun
And when they let you down
The morning rolls around
It's another day of sun (oh)
It's another day of sun (oh)
It's another day of sun (sun, sun, sun, sun)
It's just another day of sun (oh)
Just another day of sun (oh)
It's another day of sun (sun)
Another day has just begun (oh)
It's another day of sun
It's another day of sun

I came to this movie hating musicals, ended up being highly impressed, almost crying and wanting to listen to jazz more. If every musical was like this, I'd absolutely love that genre.
What about shrek the musical?
What? What about West Side Story if you like modern musicals? Or Chicago? Or, just cause it’s amazing, Fiddler on the Roof?
the_Lazarus if only la la land were real jazz. I’ll give it that it graces the genre, but it’s very much pop even though they try to say it’s jazz.

This is fake. I danced on traffic in LA, no one joined me.

Sorry I don’t live in LA bro :(

Does anyone else cry at the end of this when the cars honk and they shut the doors? It's all just perfect
yes!
i started crying when it began
affirmative
Why would I cry?
oh god i'm so happy i wasn't the only one
The way she flicked the sunglasses into the car was so unbelievably satisfying as it was right on time with the song too
My favorite thing about this is that it's a nod to all the "special skills" artists in LA. The flips and parkour are done by stunt people. The fan dancer and B-boy are specialty calls. The skateboard and bicycle are stunt units. The dancers (tap, hip hop, musical theatre) are their own unit. The band in the truck is sometimes a real group that a movie can hire together.

This is a directorial masterpiece in every sense of the word. Not least of which because, unless I'm mistaken, there are no cuts throughout the whole scene. Bravo to Damien Chazelle and his cameraman, cinematographer, etc.
No cuts but there is a fade. So not entirely the Scorsese steadicam copacobana one shot but damn well close enough and just as impressive.
There are cuts hidden in the fast pans. But from the skateboard to the end is all one take.
3 cuts if I am not mistaken is what Mr. Chazelle said in one of his interviews.
It's actually three long shots. The cuts are hidden in the two whip pans. First cut is at 1:26. Second is at 3:13.
Look on the shadows of the cars. And mostly they do a cut because they need to change from camera on crane to handhold - like in 1:13
Hands down THE BEST INTRO EVER
Prince Jacalne no man evil dead the musical has the best opening
Baby driver has the best opening
Great intro, no doubt. IMHO, West Side Story and Les Demoiselles de Rochefort are just slightly better, as far as musicals go.
Marquis De Sade nope the dark knight
@@craigj.7035 i mean i love the dark knight and nolan was the director that really got me into films (with memento particularly) but this opening is miles ahead of the dark knights technically. chazelle was amazing directing this movie and deserved that academy award
ハワイに行く飛行機の中でラ・ラ・ランド見ました！なのでこの曲を聞くと当時のワクワクが思い出されてとても楽しい気持ちになります。
This scene inspired me to drop out of college and move to LA to become a dancer! After three months of failed auditions, I ran out of money and moved back to Ohio. Now I work as a cashier at a dollar store.
Gaming
Oof
Winner POV
Surely an Ohio move
And when they let you down/ You'll get up and off the ground/ 'Cause morning rolls around/ And it's another day of sun.
Some of what makes this scene brilliant is the way the camera is actively a part of the choreography. The camera moves in rhythm with the dancers who move in rhythm with the music. Its beautiful.
I agree. You can really notice this strongly at 3:21. You as the viewer are effectively there on the freeway ramp alongside everyone else.
There should be an Academy award for best choreography once in a while...
Action movies would win ever year lol 😂

'A perfect opening doesnt exi-'
The most exquisite film opening ever!!!!! Hits me every time.
BTW, for those who’ve never been to Los Angeles, this is a very accurate depiction of a typical day.
Darrell Lim people came out to dance and sing in a terrible traffic?😂😂
Omw I'd die? Couldn't cope with this level of traffic on a daily basis?? How do people function? Whattt
@@beth9603 - the traffic doesn't actually get to that level of gridlock on a daily basis. You're at least moving slowly at even the worst times - not standing so still you can get out and have a dance number ;)
@@myleschykerda902 I only met this kind of grindlock traffic once on 105 FWY Eastbound.. that's because there was a guy threatening suicide on 110 freeway ramp.. the same stretch of road where this song was shot.
Ever considered taking the train?
I went into this movie reluctantly, i was dragged into it and im not the biggest musical fan so i was already expecting a waste, this intro, the song, the choreography, i was hooked and i can say i love this movie so much
Great story! ❤️
Same mate
I need to wake up watching this every day
All U need to do is became a boxxy software user and it's mean all movies ever made and series too is your for free
I am watching this now while eating my breakfast, It Will from now on be a part of my morning routine 😍
I was at my friends house when I watched this movie. I had a list of movies and we randomly picked and it happened to be La La Land. We both weren’t thrilled, but we were IMPRESSED when the movie ended. I genuinely didn’t think I would love this movie this much. I hated musicals (expetion of High school musical and other disney musicals lol) and this seriously changed my views on this genre
What an INCREDIBLE opening. Los Angeles never did I think you could deliver like this! Take your bow!
Man... I’m crying during isolation watching this because I miss PEOPLE. Hope everyone is healthy and safe.
Even the neverending traffic?
dude man I miss seeing women in person
do you have a brother named danny?
I know exactly how you feel. I have rediscovered it and love the music

in my opinion, the rest of the movie is nowhere near as good as this scene. fortunately for the movie, this scene is one of the best openings of any movie ever and the rest of the movie is pretty darn good.
Yeah I really, really agree.
I thought the whole movie was brilliant...and this is just one of many great scenes.
Indeed. I actually dislike musicals so I was skeptical, I sat in my place in the movie theater and then this incredible scene turns up. I was WOW!. Straight to my eyes, to my ears and to my heart. Perfect.
i love whole movie, but yes, this scene is amazing! I prefer to watch this movie using dubbing or subtitle cause boxxy software has many dubbed & subtitle languages and it is for free
I totally agree with you. The movie is very good, but this opening makes me want to stand up and clap while sobbing. No kidding.
I'm not sure we collectively realize how incredible this intro is... one of the best (and most memorable) of all-time. An instant classic. It blows my mind that it's (nearly?) all one shot... and the timing of everything is perfect.
There’s actually 2 hidden cuts in the opening so it was done in 3 shots altogether.
100th Like!
There’s hidden cuts but it’s still great
This also acts as foreshadowing of a “perfect world”. People wouldn’t expect to be so upbeat during a traffic jam and yet it presented in such a manner, then, finally hitting the audience with the title card, it was really well done.
The perfect intro to a film if I’ve ever seen one. Always brings tears to my eyes how good the choreography and song is
best opening scene in the history of musicals
definetly the best of this century
I haven’t seen all the musicals, but I find this one almost impossible to top.
No.
This looks like is all one straight shot, no cuts, which makes this wonderful opening so epic.
When i saw this opening in the theater with my girlfriend, i told her right after the end of it :"woa that was a really good movie ! We can go". This opening alone worth the ticket price !
This scene fits theme of the film almost perfectly - it starts off with different melodies in different cars, but as song goes on, all people are starting to dance in the same perfect tact and timing, just like main character. They're are complete opposite characters and almost enemies for each other, but as film goes on, they're getting along and fall in love. And in the end of the musical number, everyone gets back in their cars and blend, boring life continues. Just like in the end of the movie Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling are breaking up and dividing again.(Sorry for my bad eng - my main language is russian :| )
Wow that perspective about the movie is so beautiful and it captures perfectly the concept. Love it 👏💕
Cinema has no barriers... it unites everyone... language is just a medium... thanks for the great perspective :)
Don't forget 1:20
great observation dude
Emma and Ryan are *playing* the characters. It's not Emma and Ryan the ones breaking up. It's Mia and Sebastian :)
Great observation though
Still love this opening scene after all this time. It's what musicals are all about.
can we appreciate how they perfectly execute this performance in ONE SINGLE SCENE
It was actually three cuts! Still very impressive :) Mandy Moore the choreographer did a behind the scenes video about it, it's really interesting!
Hello, where are the cuts please ?@@Julesiax
it's funny, the ending of this movie is explained in the first lines of these lyrics:
"I think about that day
*I left him* at a Greyhound station
West of Santa Fé
We were seventeen, but *he was sweet and it was true*
*Still I did what I had to do*
'Cause I just knew
Summer Sunday nights
We'd sink into our seats
Right as they dimmed out all the lights
*A Technicolor world made out of music and machine*
*It called me to be on that screen*
*And live inside each scene* "
Yeah, the same person who wrote the beginning wrote the ending. So that' totally ON PURPOSE.

I love this scene so much. It's so happy and hopeful but bittersweet at the same time, because you know most of them are not going to make it in Hollywood. :')
Sure, but it's also about enjoying the ride, and appreciating what you have got (i.e. 'another day of sun') even if you *don't* make it.
Going even further, the majority of these actors in this scene aren’t going to make it in Hollywood in real life either.

I cannot forget watching this in the movie theater... The beat was so overwhelming

Greatest movie opening ever and it's not close.
これLa La Landの曲だったんだ〜！！わかってよかった！スッキリ！
@minho lee yes
Anyone else notice all the dents on the hood and roof’s of the cars? Just shows how many takes they had to do for this.
it was also 104 degrees that day in LA. The heat makes the metal of the cars easier to dent. If this were done in 60 degree weather or when its not smoldering hot on the cars, the dancing on the cars wouldn't have caused actual dents because the metal would be much stronger.
Lol
Well, I noticed that they didn't dance on the older cars. Quite a refreshing change from Hollyweird's usual disrespectful attitude.
It took 4 days to shoot...
The car hoods/roofs are purposely dented in before the first take. It makes it easier and safer for the dancers to perform.
che scena meravigliosa, che film meraviglioso! Questa scena poi è iconica, un piano sequenza difficilissimo, da sola vale (quasi) tutto il film. Superbo!
最高のオープニングから始まる映画はやっぱり最高！！
I remember watching this video a lot for my film studies class when I wrote an essay about La La Land, but this opening number is so good that I always come back to it!
The opening of lalaland is one of the reasons I love lalaland. All the music in lalaland is beautiful, especially when I listen to 'Another Day of Sun', I feel so happy. The music, scenery, choreography and camera movements in this scene are perfect.
아직까지 이만큼 나의 마음을 흔든 영화는 없었지 서로의 미래를 위해 이별을 겪고있던 그때의 내 상황이 영화의 상황과 비슷했기 때문일까 7번쯤 영화를 본것 같은데 그때의 감정이 여전히 느껴진다
Absolute perfection; easily one of the greatest movie scenes of all time. I wonder how funny it would have looked to motorists driving by and seeing a bunch of people dancing on top of all those cars lol.
My cat died yesterday and putting this song on is the only thing that's helping me get through it.
sorry for your loss
We miss them when we are gone but remember that you both had good times together and it's best not to dwell on it. You can get through this,I know it's tough but you can do this I believe in you!😄😄😄😄😘😘😀😀🐏
My all time favorite opening scene, the whole first half hour, amazing. Just watched the entire film again tonight, for the 16th time. The best film of the year..
Senza dubbio uno delle scene girate meglio,la canzone è stupenda,insomma non ho parole😍 giornata partita in bellezza!!💘😌
I believe that this song in beginning of the movie itself affirmed the claim for Best Cinematography at Oscars.This song is a masterpiece that'll be learnt by the students for years to come.
nothing will ever leave my head like the beginning riff of this song. i only just found out the name of this song and it’s been in my head since 2020
この曲めっちゃいい曲！
朝に聞いたりするとテンション上がるけどなぜか今の自分の人生こんな感じで晴れやかじゃないなって焦る…ポジティブに生きようって思わされる曲とMV

words cannot express the emotion i feel when listening to this song 😭😭😭😭😭😭
same, idk why i cry every time
Amazing how this scene was choreographed and put together. It really works. I see why teenagers have taken to it and do their own versions. It is truly teenage music - full of rhythm and energy. It took me time to get into it, but now I think it's adorable.
Really reminds me of the upbeat energy of Bye Bye Birdie.
I like that this song doesn’t have any of the main characters so u just get to enjoy it
By far the best movie intro. Just lovely
라라랜드는 정말 완벽한 영화예요 한장면 한 장면 곱씹어봐도 좋네요
When they closed the doors in unison at the end I got major chills.
As soon as the music hits, I experience an almost overwhelming feeling of pure joy
Damien Chazelle was only 31 when he directed this masterpiece, what a genius
And 29 when he directed Whiplash, whatta legend.
Bravo! I wept tears of joy when I first saw this!
il film si apre con una delle scene più belle di recente memoria... e poi va sempre meglio. Capolavoro assoluto
