La La Land OST - ok, not the coolest thing I could be listening to but, sheesh, I really like this - and the film too for that matter. Like all much-hyped stuff I avoided it like the plague upon its release but, four years on, it’s penetrated even my jaded fancy (oo-er). Justin Hurwitz has composed a masterful score which manages to sound simultaneously traditional and contemporary, and the arrangements are just fabulous


I resisted this movie for a while too, but then got interested when some of the music was used in a ballet show my kids were in and I found myself rather taken by it. It is a wonderful film, deserving of the hype, largely because of the music which is remarkably good for a modern musical, with a particularly magical nod to Tchaikovsky at one point. Must watch it again soon.
