La La Land

La La Land has been almost universally praised, which is ordinarily a warning sign for me. I wasn't won over by the exuberance of the opening sequence, the bright colours or charming romance. In fact, it wasn't until two thirds of the way through that I really caught on, but from that moment to the end there was a smile on my face. Here's a film that deserves its positive press, even if it is a little sickly-sweet in places.
