試題詳情
Shot in more than 40 locations in L.A.,the musical La La Land is "a love letter to the city".To coincide with UK release,we asked a local writer to pick some of the film's amazing settings.
Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange
La La Land's opening scene is a six-minute dance that plays out in L.A.'s bad traffic.It is also where the film's leading roles,struggling actress Mia and jazz pianist Sebastian,first encounter each other --- in a road anger incident.The scene is said to have been filmed over two hot days in south L.A..
Smokehouse Restaurant,Burbank
This is the setting for the scene in which Mia discovers Sebastian's talent for the piano.The fictional Lipton's restaurant --- where jazz pianist Sebastian was reluctant to play Christmas music --- is in reality a place long frequented by celebrities,producers and other show business types.It has been on this spot,across the street from the Warner Bros studio,since 1949.In the film,the outer wall of Lipton's is the You are the Star mural(壁畫),which features Marilyn Monroe,Charlie Chaplin and others,which is on the corner of Hollywood Boulevard and Wicox Avenue in Hollywood in reality.
Warner Bros Studio,Burbank
Mia works at the studio's coffee shop,where Sebastian comes to meet her.As they wander the studio's lot,Mia points out "the window that Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman looked out in Casablanca." It's one of the film's numerous nods to movie history.Warner Bros is still a working studio,with 35 sound stages,14 exterior sets and visitor tours.
Cathy's Corner,Mount Hollywood Drive
This section of the road that winds through Griffth Park is the setting of their dance play.It overlooks the San Fernando Valley and features on the film poster.Cathy's Corner is near famed Mulholand Drive,but prepare for disappointment if you're expecting a park bench and street lamps,which only exist in the movie.
(1)In order to encounter some film stars,you may go to BB.
A.Judge Harry Pregerson Interchange
