I'm not going to lie it's a musical that puts Umbrellas of Cherbourg to shame

I know Chazelle loves Umbrellas, so I'm sure I am missing something. Night and day for me when it comes to characters and script though.

I'm not ignoring this thread btw, Raul. Just haven't seen any of the films on the last page, repped them anyway though.

La La Land is probably the most overrated movie of the year, but I wanted to love it, and I'm glad you did.
Besides the color palette I don't even get the connection. Oh well, I'm a moron, what do I know.
WARNING: "Endings of both films" spoilers below
Both films end with two lovers that ultimately did not fulfill their dream of living together

Very cool Raul that you seen a 5/5 movie and loved it. That doesn't happen to me too much. I'm looking forward to La La Land, it looks exciting, but I have to wait for Netflix to get it. Is it a period piece movie BTW?

Pretty sure it's modern day CR.
I never thought I would see movies that would contend for my next top 10, but La La and Manchester both are up there.

I have to say though it bewilders me when people say this was a terrible year for movies, I thought it was a rather good year overall.
