Here’s to the fools who dream — and to anyone who’s ever tap-danced through a traffic jam. LA LA LAND lights up Independence Day Weekend with jazz, longing, and a Cinemascope sky full of stars (and now fireworks too!). Rebel in a night that’s Singin’ in the Rain sweetness by way of Silver Lake. Bring tissues, wear something luminous, and don’t look directly into Ryan Gosling’s smolder.
