Ever since the film about a musician and an aspiring actress who meet and fall in love in Los Angeles premiered at the Venice Film Festival in August of 2016 it's been a Hollywood fairytale come true for the cast, crew and the film's director, Damien Chazelle.
After its debut in Europe, "La La Land" went on to wow audiences at, among others, the Toronto Film Festival, received two premieres in Los Angeles itself, saw Stone and Gosling place their hands and feet in cement outside the iconic Chinese Theatre in Hollywood and go on to garner an avalanche of accolades from Critics Choice Awards and Golden Globes to BAFTA nods.
Tuesday (January 24) "La La Land" added a record-tying fourteen Oscar nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Actress. - Copyright Holder: POOL (CAN SELL)
