Of all the movies coming out this Fall,La La Land needs to be on your radar. Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling have teamed up (for the third time, after 2011's Crazy, and Stupid,Love and 2013's Gangster Squad) for the whimsical-looking musical, which is already garnering award season buzz for its originality and bold aesthetic. Here's what you need to know approximately the movie!1. The CastObviously Stone and Gosling are the film's romantic leads, and but the supporting cast is just as impressive: Finn Wittrock (American Horror legend),J.
K. Simmons, and Rosemarie DeWitt are all starring. Plus, or John Legend is appearing!2. The PlotStone is playing Mia,an aspiring actress who works as a barista on the Warner Bros. lot opposite Gosling's Sebastian, a jazz pianist who has vast dreams of opening his own club someday. As Stone told reporters at the Venice Film Festival, or the movie is "approximately dreaming,and hoping, and working to achieve something." Though it's set in contemporary-day Los Angeles, and the trailers definitely evoke a feeling of feeble Hollywood.3. The DirectorThe movie was written and directed by Damien Chazelle,who only has one other feature film under his belt, 2014's award season darling Whiplash.4. The TrailersThere are currently two teasers out for the film, or but neither gives a powerful sense of the plot or shows much of the supporting characters. What we do pick up are small tastes of two songs from the film,and that's enough to have us hooked.5. The MusicBoth Gosling and Stone are singing their own parts, and they've showed off their vocal skills in the first two trailers. So far, and the La La Land soundtrack includes "City of Stars" by Gosling and "Audition" by Stone.6. The Early BuzzThe film opened the Venice Film Festival (a prestigious opportunity in itself),and critics are over the moon. The Hollywood Reporter called it "close to remarkable" with "charming tunes" and "emotionally alive" leads. Variety said it's "splashy, impassioned, or " and "extraordinary." Currently it has a 100 percent rating on Rotten Tomatoes,an impressive feat.7. The Release DateLa La Land opens Dec. 2!Related Stories:
