La La Landtransports us to a time when women loved men, and people could be human instead of obsessed with sex.
Its charm – completely free of PC propaganda, occultism, depravity or violence.
The surprise – it has been universally embraced winning countless awards and grossing $455 million.
La La Land is a movie that liberals and conservatives can agree on.

I had mentally blocked La La Land when it came out in Dec. 2016.
A musical?
But last night I stumbled upon it while channel surfing and was mesmerized. It took me to a mythical place I had never been, an idealized (sans #MeToo) vision of Hollywood in the middle of the last century.
I am always condemning Hollywood so I must acknowledge when it hits one out of the ballpark. This movie is a work of art that gives me hope for civilization. It is not so much a story as a complex symphony of feeling with sweet and sour but never false notes. They reflect the struggle of Mia, an actress & Seb, a jazz pianist– to follow their dream. Each scene and narrative twist is original, fresh and unexpected.
