Has Anyone Here Seen La La Land ?
The musical film La La Land has been nominated for 14 Academy Awards. The consensus seems to be that the film will win many, if not all, of the categories in which it is nominated. This is despite the apparent truth that the two main characters are played by actors who are not particularly good singers or dancers. Bill Maher pointedly shouted at the camera on one of his "New Rules" segments "Ryan Gosling cannot fucking sing !"

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Will the 89th Academy Awards be a parade of political speeches or landslide for "La La Land"? Probably both.
Sunday night's Oscars are shaping up to be one of the most turbulent and politically charged ceremonies in recent memory. The telecast, which begins at 8:30 p.m. on ABC, is expected to resemble one very glitzy protest against President Donald Trump, whom award-winners — like Meryl Streep at the Golden Globes — have railed against throughout Hollywood's awards season.
An unusually tense atmosphere has coalesced before the Dolby Theatre ceremony, with protests, rallies and boycotts swirling around this year's Oscars. Even the normally sunny California weather has been stormy.
Yet most expect another day of sun for Damien Chazelle's celebrated musical "La La Land," up for a record-tying 14 nominations
