In modern-day Los Angeles, barista and struggling actress Mia Dolan (Emma Stone) hunted for that elusive break, while uncompromising jazz pianist Sebastian Wilder (Ryan Gosling) stubbornly planned to play his own sounds in his own club. The intense attraction that blossomed between these two dreamers--and the sad truths that emerged as their respective hopes headed towards reality--fuel this color-splashed, six-time Oscar-winning musical romance from director Damien Chazelle; John Legend, Rosemarie DeWitt, Finn Wittrock, and J.K. Simmons also star.
