La La Land is out now at the IFI, bringing a ray of sunshine to this wintry January – you can book tickets right here.
The film stars Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling and is written and directed by Damien Chazelle, who made a big splash a couple of years back with Whiplash.
It’s all about a wannabe actress called Mia (Stone) and a struggling jazz pianist Sebastian (Gosling) who fall in love across a scintillating stylised LA cityscape.
Fresh from a record breaking haul at the Golden Globes, with a phenomenal seven wins, La La Land has also been a bit hit with critics and you can see some of their rave reviews below.
