5:20 Apparently this scene is loosely based on a real life interaction that Ryan Gosling had when he was still trying to make it in the industry. In the middle of an audition, he was emotional and tears for a scene, but the casting director took a phone call in the middle of the audition.
Loved your passionate reaction. I am in the scene where she puts on her show to a tiny bored audience. I’m the guy clapping in the back. I agree that the movie really picks up in the second half and the ending is powerful. I’m not sure you’re aware but this movie was announced as the winner of the Oscar for best picture only to have that award reversed a minute later after it was discovered the announcer read the wrong card and the Oscar was then given to the actual winner that year “Moonlight.” Maybe you two should react to that movie next and decide which one actually deserved the award.
so many people love this movie and feel the pain from the romance but personally, I love this movie for the pure representation of dreamers. As dreamers, we spend so much time hearing "no" and being told we're crazy and this film really captured the feeling of persistence.
That talk at the end about artists moving from guaranteed success formula and how their craziness can make something beautiful , makes me think you two would love EEAAO. It is a unique chaotic movie that hits you with such beautiful messages that you are NOT prepared for or expecting as movie rolls
I loved this reaction so much. The siblings, their empathy and appreciation and the perspective from people not familiar with California, Hollywood or LA.
Like 20 minutes into this reaction the brother (sorry, I don't know your names) says, "I love art." How perfect is that? What I love about this movie is that, not only is it clearly a love letter to musicals of the past, but it's also clearly a love letter to the arts in general. And that entire theme is beautifully summed up by the lyrics to Emma Stone's singing audition. This movie is incredibly sad and utterly beautiful and totally joyous. Oh, and Ryan Gosling learned to play piano for this movie, and the director said that they never used a double for any of his playing - it was all him. Bonkers.
YES this movie really shows you the beauty of art and passion. That is soooo cool that he did that alone! He is truly a great actor. Thanks for your comment 🥰 Our names are Ron (brother) and Ayala (sister).😊
One of my favs. My friends don't like it as much as I do. "Can we not watch this again?" The 10 seconds of Emma dancing, plus the "ha, gotcha!" look, I could watch forever.
I fell in love with a woman in 2019 and it didn't work out. I haven't met anyone I like since her, so it can be that simple sometimes but I don't think it's the norm haha
@@thosesiblingss I lied. It’s based on thousands of true stories. Some say L.A. has a million stories that are heartbreaking to the people that live through them. And this movie is true to all those broken dreams, while also giving us a bittersweet ending (rather than a bitter ending). It still leaves us with something, maybe hope. It’s the least the movie could do after stabbing us in the heart like that! 🥺 I guess that’s why it feels true and honest. The ending shows us the wish fulfillment “Hollywood” ending before returning us to the real ending. Which is also a Hollywood ending.
You should watch Damien chazelles other film ‘Whiplash’!! Sebs boss in the restaurant in the first part of the film is a jazz teacher! It’s so cool to have him cameo in La La land
The reason it could step up to A+ levels in the final third is because it was already at those levels earlier on but you didn't realise it until the artist unveiled what he had in mind.
21:30 that’s the Griffith observatory which isn’t that far from Hollywood. I think maybe 15-20 minute drive? I could be wrong on the exact time but it’s close
I think the girl should watch it again, because it really is fantastic from the very beginning. Sometimes it takes more viewings to appreciate. In my opinion though :)
I guess you kids were too young in 2016 to stay up to watch Jimmy Fallon's Golden Globe's "La La Land" intro... ua-cam.com/video/QzfEIetaQ7w/v-deo.htmlsi=fmkxaUa6Yjz6G2AO
Are you from the US, because you seem to like the movie and no one I know in the States like this movie. I am one of the few in the States who likes this movie. Where you from?
Thanks, Ayala and Ron! 🌤 I love this movie so much. The emotional stuff resonates with me, deeply... plus the cinematic/musical stuff appeals to the lifelong movie-lover in me. I rewatch it every December.
City of Stars and the song she sings for the audition were both nominated for the Academy awards and "City of Stars" won. You need to watch John Legend do both, together at the Oscars. ua-cam.com/video/4jTDJYHjjeo/v-deo.html

Omggg what?? That's horrible 🤯
@@thosesiblingss it is awful . I had it happen to me a bunch of times . One time the casting director didn't look at me once .
You guys give me hope for the internet. Because it is so beautiful to connect with strangers during a movie/art so much.
Love from germany ♥
I watched this movie 7 times in the cinema...
Thanks so much ❤️
The audition scene is the only time I’ve ever seen my dad cry. This movie is so damn good
Great scene 👏🏼 👌

You do a nice job of recognizing the distinction between talent and genius, and the value of creativity and novelty.
Thank you 😊
We appreciate it 🙏

“Don’t meet people!”
Pretty funny - if only it was that simple. I felt that way before, too.
I fell in love with a woman in 2019 and it didn't work out. I haven't met anyone I like since her, so it can be that simple sometimes but I don't think it's the norm haha
You two are great! So much passion and intelligence and emotion too. Definitely signing up
Happy to hear 🥹 welcome!🥰
I’m Los Angeles born and raised. L.A is really like this (more or less) and this movie is based on a true story.
Really???
Thats cool!!

Shalom, good stuff keep going. Intelligent siblings fs.
Love the final analysis and reaction!
11:22 yes California is sunny most of the time. I think maybe 2 1/2 months aren’t sunny. From December till mid/end of February usually.
The reason it could step up to A+ levels in the final third is because it was already at those levels earlier on but you didn't realise it until the artist unveiled what he had in mind.
Precisely!! Amazing 👏🏼
21:30 that’s the Griffith observatory which isn’t that far from Hollywood. I think maybe 15-20 minute drive? I could be wrong on the exact time but it’s close

Fun fact another day of sun was filmed in one consecutive take! There’s was no cuts or multiple takes :)
I’m so pleased that you loved this movie. Now I have to go blow my nose.
Us too🤣🤧
Awesome reaction of my favorite movie!!!!!!😊😊😊😊😊😊
Thanks! Have fun! 🥰
Forgot how good this film was. Great reaction guys! You should also react to "Good Will Hunting" soon.
I guess you kids were too young in 2016 to stay up to watch Jimmy Fallon's Golden Globe's "La La Land" intro...

28:00 it’s John legend the singer haha
Are you from the US, because you seem to like the movie and no one I know in the States like this movie. I am one of the few in the States who likes this movie. Where you from?
Watch the movie The Greatest Showman. It is special.
Good movie, but I prefer Damien Chazelle's first major film more, Whiplash.
So what's next after La La Land?
Hopefully we will start Band of Brothers soon🥰 you can go check our community section for updates on that.
I'm going to suggest you watch "The Producers (2005)". It's really funny.
'jewish' siblings, what does that have to do with anything???
You really didn't recognize John Legend ? :)))
Can't believe you'll don't know who John Legend is.
Just meh for me. But that’s ok. There’s something for everyone.
OK indeed😁
If you really want to learn piano start with a simple song on UA-cam and you cans do it. It’s many hours but the instrument is very forgiving
Um yeh….brilliant.
26:48 ...stay??🫣
YES!😍
Why you guys talk too much between the main scenes and at better things
