It's definitely more about Mia and Sebastian each being the someone in the crowd who can take them "flying off the ground," but I guess the casting director makes sense too
I think the concept of being waiting for "Someone in the Crowd" is being criticized and the movie characters succed when they do something by them selves and stop waiting for that person who finds them and makes them stars. The movie is telling all the dreamers to actually work for their dreams and don't just wait for it to become true.
This song foreshadowed everything! A. What you mentioned B. "Someone in the crowd could be the one you need to know, the ONE TO FINALLY LIFT YOU OFF THE GROUND" refers to Sebastian in Planetarium. C. "You got the invitation" refers to Mia getting the part D. "You got the right address" refers to Sebastian finding Mia and taking her to the audition E. "Watching while the world keeps spinning..." refers to Mia being an actress and people watching her films F. She wears blue throughout the film in special moments except for A lovely night including her final Audition G. The way her roommate in the red dress knocks on the door rapidly is foreshadowing the way Sebastian repeatedly honks to get Mia H. "A little chance encounter" is about the little chance Mia has when she unknowingly encountered the casting director who saw her play I. "When the stars align" references the planetarium scene where they dance on top of stars
And maybe the part just squeeze a bit more could be referring to John legends characters coming back in Sebastian’s life again and Mia is worried about what business Seb has with John legends character :)
I like the use of the dress colors: The primary colors are yellow, red and blue. The primary colors of light at red, green and blue. Also, how she (and we) go right past Sed without noticing him. The slow motion through "popcorn" scene followed with a speed-up is similar the one in "Big Fish," as both characters go from shadow to light as they head to their destinies.
the first three you mentioned weren’t cuts. They were just whip pans. There’s no need to cut scenes together that are that short. As for the last ones, you’re absolutely right
I'm late but there is no cut for the pool scene. You can find behind the scenes footage, the camera goes up and drops in with the man all in the same take. From the cut to Emma's back to where she is going outside to the spin before the fireworks is all one shot. Edit: I retract my statement. While they didn't cut to change the camera for the water, they did cut to change the position of the crane and I believe the on-set orchestra. But there is a cut so this is true, my bad.
You got the invitation You got the right address You need some medication? The answer's always yes A little chance encounter Could be the one you've waited for Just squeeze a bit more Tonight we're on a mission Tonight's the casting call If this is the real audition Oh, God, help us all You make the right impression Then ev'rybody knows your name We're in the fast lane Someone in the crowd could be the one you need to know The one to finally lift you off the ground Someone in the crowd could take you where you wanna go If you're the someone ready to be found you're the someone ready to be found Do what you need to do 'Til they discover you And make you more than who You're seeing now So with the stars aligned I think I'll stay behind You've got to go and find That someone in the crowd That someone in the crowd Is someone in the crowd the only thing you really see? Watching while the world keeps spinning 'round? Somewhere there's a place where I find who I'm gonna be A somewhere that's just waiting to be found Someone in the crowd could be the one you need to know The someone who could lift you off the ground Someone in the crowd could take you where you wanna go Someone in the crowd could make you Someone in the crowd could take you Flying off the ground If you're the someone ready to be found
Plus damien chazelle cut out a 3 minute verse and dance in the roommate courtyard so yeah! He said they cut it out because "emma stone didn't have enough screen time"
When Mia said she can't come for the party cause she's working, it actually fit how Emma Watson was dropping this movie due to early promise for playing Belle but in the movie how she ends up going to the party references to how they still ended up working with Emma but with a Stone (and party getting stoned seems relatable, they even showed a champagne shot and the first woman beside Mia when she walked off the bathroom is also holding a drink) I seem a bit stoned so forgive me if my words were over the top😂😂
If a musical is really intended for Films like La La Land, it just works. Meanwhile, you have Cats and Dear Evan Hansen whichbwere absolutely great in theater but an absolute disaster in movies.
I'm looking too deep into this. I like to imagine the party is at a glass house as a way to represent how the industry has people who are easy to see through. People who show their true colors and don't fool anyone. Like actors, producers, etc who are known for being fake. Mia hides in the bathroom to hide herself away in order to protect herself from being seen as one of these people, and also wants to part herself from the rest. She wants to be an individual known for being unique, like many other actors/actresses. But it could be hard for her to be confident due to how many fakers there are in Hollywood. When she walks out, the snow is how the fame comes in small amounts. When the snow piles up, it becomes big. In this case, if the snow=fame, the bigger the pile, the more famous she'll become. The slow dancing is what it feels like to Mia to reach her dream. It is slow. A slow dance between her (Mia) and the people of Hollywood. Out of sync= imbalance and failure. Which is what Mia fears most. When the guy jumps into the pool, it represents the big impact somebody can make in the industry. Mia knows this, and she *wants* to be that person to make a big impact. She *wants* to make a confident jump into her dream of being an actress. She's on the first floor because she feels very powerless at this point. The guy jumps from the second floor because it's how Mia views the famous actors/actresses in Hollywood. The people blocking the pool view from Mia are the people in Hollywood that make it difficult for Mia to achieve what she wants. The spinning camera is how the fakers, the difficult nature of some people, and the lack of confidence Mia faces, cause times of chaos. No control. Nothing. Everything falls apart. It shoots up to fireworks to maybe hint at how despite the challenges and chaos many face in Hollywood, many go on to be famous and are praised as a result. Idk tho.
You are the greatest woman ever Mrs Emma Stone. I will win my Academy Award in the name of human rights equality and love. The theme song of my Academy Award winning film will be titled Champion by the Roots and my film will be called Wondrous. I know Mrs Gal Gadot Mrs Patty Jenkins and their film partners will see me win my Academy Award. I hope that I can highlight love and autism human rights equality for my film project. Mr John Lewis told Mr Xavier Degroat Autism is a civil rights institution and all autistic people and disabled people whether they are able bodied and or not able bodied they are human beings capable of showing love empathy respect and dignity. There is a RUclips video of Mr John Lewis interviewing Mr Xavier Degroat the first openly autistic White House employee. It will change your life Mrs Stone.

i love how Mia just directly went to the bed in the first 15 seconds
I just can't stop loving the music at the mirror scene!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍
me too!
ruclips.net/video/5r45AmZCN0E/видео.html
1:00 "Why is there a convention in the bathroom?" from a lovely lady in the yellow dress, sounds so British.
I also love sonoya mizuno!!!!!
when i am an adult i better have an apartment like theirs and friends like mia’s
Me
You girls sing too?
Hahaha good luck with that! I hope you have rich parents...
Depends on your personality and capabilities.
You will. But you won't realize it until you go seperate ways.
Someone in the crowd basically refers to the casting director who went to see her play. It all makes sense. Love La La Land and its songs!
Thanks, Captain Obvious
Or it's how Mia was in the crowd when Sebastian was playing the piano during Christmas
It's definitely more about Mia and Sebastian each being the someone in the crowd who can take them "flying off the ground," but I guess the casting director makes sense too
I think the concept of being waiting for "Someone in the Crowd" is being criticized and the movie characters succed when they do something by them selves and stop waiting for that person who finds them and makes them stars. The movie is telling all the dreamers to actually work for their dreams and don't just wait for it to become true.
@Albar Tal Cual: Don't know if it's that cynical. I see it as finding someone who will help them and inspire them to pursue their dreams
This song foreshadowed everything!
A. What you mentioned
B. "Someone in the crowd could be the one you need to know, the ONE TO FINALLY LIFT YOU OFF THE GROUND" refers to Sebastian in Planetarium.
C. "You got the invitation" refers to Mia getting the part
D. "You got the right address" refers to Sebastian finding Mia and taking her to the audition
E. "Watching while the world keeps spinning..." refers to Mia being an actress and people watching her films
F. She wears blue throughout the film in special moments except for A lovely night including her final Audition
G. The way her roommate in the red dress knocks on the door rapidly is foreshadowing the way Sebastian repeatedly honks to get Mia
H. "A little chance encounter" is about the little chance Mia has when she unknowingly encountered the casting director who saw her play
I. "When the stars align" references the planetarium scene where they dance on top of stars
Well damn
Not like it overshadowed something, you are a fine detective which is different
She does wear blue shoes in lovely night so, you're completely right there.
And maybe the part just squeeze a bit more could be referring to John legends characters coming back in Sebastian’s life again and Mia is worried about what business
Seb has with John legends character :)
RED ALSO IS EVERYWHERE AND IT IS SEBASTIAN’S COLOR
Probably my favorite songs from this movie. But I can’t choose they’re all so goooood
if I was in the pool and the people around it started synchronised dancing, I would think it was a cult initiation
that horn/drum section from 3:20 with it progression❣️👌
why am i just now realizing the little kick thing they do at 3:36 is the same kicking thing Seb does in A Lovely Night
They wanted Mia to go so that she can drive them lol.
I like the use of the dress colors: The primary colors are yellow, red and blue. The primary colors of light at red, green and blue. Also, how she (and we) go right past Sed without noticing him. The slow motion through "popcorn" scene followed with a speed-up is similar the one in "Big Fish," as both characters go from shadow to light as they head to their destinies.
I love Jessica Rothe (the blonde friend in the green dress)! She is so adorable and funny.
I just realized the girl in the green dress was bare foot!
The faded shots you missed
Bathroom 0:42 - 0:44
Hallway 1:07 - 1:10
Dining room 2:28
Pool 5:56 (to switch to a water proof camera)
Fireworks 6:19
We can indeed see there's a faded shot at 5:56, but couldn't they have used a waterproof camera for the whole shot ?
Yeah they should’ve done that but Damien chazelle did it that way so we have to stick to what we have
the first three you mentioned weren’t cuts. They were just whip pans. There’s no need to cut scenes together that are that short. As for the last ones, you’re absolutely right
@@Em-uz1ot i think the water splattering the camera is intentional
I'm late but there is no cut for the pool scene. You can find behind the scenes footage, the camera goes up and drops in with the man all in the same take. From the cut to Emma's back to where she is going outside to the spin before the fireworks is all one shot.

I m so happy for this!
a cinematographic masterpiece
This is filmed in my city...literally walking distance from where I live.
Yeah, Los Angeles, Hollywood, a little town, i think there are a few game that happen over there
@@diostodopoderoso5414 it's actually in Long Beach, CA.
Thank you for posting!!
You got the invitation
You got the right address
You need some medication?
The answer's always yes
A little chance encounter
Could be the one you've waited for
Just squeeze a bit more
Tonight we're on a mission
Tonight's the casting call
If this is the real audition
Oh, God, help us all
You make the right impression
Then ev'rybody knows your name
We're in the fast lane
Someone in the crowd could be the one you need to know
The one to finally lift you off the ground
Someone in the crowd could take you where you wanna go
If you're the someone ready to be found
you're the someone ready to be found
Do what you need to do
'Til they discover you
And make you more than who
You're seeing now
So with the stars aligned
I think I'll stay behind
You've got to go and find
That someone in the crowd
That someone in the crowd
Is someone in the crowd the only thing you really see?
Watching while the world keeps spinning 'round?
Somewhere there's a place where I find who I'm gonna be
A somewhere that's just waiting to be found
Someone in the crowd could be the one you need to know
The someone who could lift you off the ground
Someone in the crowd could take you where you wanna go
Someone in the crowd could make you
Someone in the crowd could take you
Flying off the ground
If you're the someone ready to be found
My favourite song😍😍😍
A somewhere that’s just waiting to be found 💛 5:16
I've always wondered what happened to Mia's friends...
They died from a car wash
@@kensh851 🤣
Right?! I hate how they disappear from the rest of the movie. :(
Plus damien chazelle cut out a 3 minute verse and dance in the roommate courtyard so yeah! He said they cut it out because "emma stone didn't have enough screen time"
@@jorgeeboj321 oh my...
I didn't know Jessica Rothe was in this masterpiece!
Tree can sing???
I KNOWWW!!!!
THE movie! ❤
I've never been happy in crowds. I've actually never been happy.
When she face plants on her bed…so relatable
iconic!!!!
lmfao, I love how Mia just comes out of the shower and her is on fleek. Like ma'am what is your secret?! 😭
i just realized they are the colors of the heathers
❤️❤️❤️شكراً على الفديو

I seem a bit stoned so forgive me if my words were over the top😂😂
HAHAHA
Lmao these are definitely not references. The songs were written before she was cast. But enjoy that bowl, my dude!
It's weird to know that the yellow dress girl is the japanese robot in Ex Machina
And crazy rich asians
YESSSS! And from the Netflix show "maniac" Sonoya Mizuno
The four founders of Hogwarts
If a musical is really intended for Films like La La Land, it just works. Meanwhile, you have Cats and Dear Evan Hansen whichbwere absolutely great in theater but an absolute disaster in movies.
The surround sound O.O
for those who's wondering the name of the song of the mirror:

I’m sorry but all I can see is Heathers 😂
Same! they’re basically turning her into a Heather
So weird this was written before the tiktok ‘she’s a heather’ thing
@@charlieglendo5933 i believe the comment was written in reference to the musical heathers ^^
I wish her friends got a little more to do in the film.
She drove? What was their plan if Mia didn't come? They should have had an Uber ready to cancel at the very least
unanswered questions that only damien could answer LOL
Lmfaooo imagine there's a delete scene of them in the car canceling their uber or Lyft!🤣
