La La Land

[sp1814]

Not a question - more a piece of advice.

Go see this film.

It is astonishingly good.

What's it about?

[-Talbot-]

Probably about how a famous reality TV star turned a super-power into a laughing stock.

[rockyracoon]

Lol

//What's it about? //

The title suggests Answerbank at the weekend.(^_*)

[rockyracoon]

Noooo, I've just googled it. It's a flaming musical.

[sp1814]

Yep...I'm Of the opinion that just about every musical ever made sucks.

But this film is shockingly good.

Even Ryan (balsa wood)!Gosling is good in it.

[rockyracoon]

I'll wait til it's on Sky, then I'll give it a whirl.

[Buenchico]

Generally very good reviews on Rotten Tomatoes but with a few (strongly) dissenting voices:

Rocky, some might say that most musicals are flaming.

[Prudie]

Anything with Ryan Gosling in is worth ogling at, he can show me his balsa wood anytime.

[Old_Geezer]

Is it about one of the Teletubbies ?

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Can't wait to see it. Won seven Golden Globes which is a record. Stars Ryan Gosling who I love so just have to bribe Mr BD with the promise of a nice turkish meal after he takes me to see it.

[shoota]

Is 'a Turkish meal' a euphemism?

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Oooh I'm shocked. You are awful (apologies to Dick Emery)! No I really mean a meal at the Topkapi Palace on Deansgate, Manchester.

[anneasquith]

What will you order BD.I like Turkish food ?

[BAKERS DOZEN]

Usually a meze for starters with added sucuk and helim. The Mr BD likes a Bursa kebab and I have the chicken special with rice and salad but the best part of the meal is the sauce they serve. Mr BD has tried to make it at home several times and is nearly there but not quite yet. The best bit for him is the double Raki afterwards. We have been going there for so long they don't measure it any more - just fill the glass. Needless to say I always drive home.

[anneasquith]

Sounds lovely enjoy .

[ummmm]

Any chance of you going to see La La Land, Anne?
