电影《La La Land》 与插曲City of Stars简介

2016年由Damien Chazelle导演的音乐剧影片《La La Land》讲述的是发生在现代大都市洛杉矶(LA)的故事，Mia（Emma Stone饰演）一心想在好莱坞当上著名演员，Sebastian （Ryan Gosling 饰演）则是一个专注于爵士乐的音乐师，梦想拥有一家属于自己的爵士乐club，两人都在LA这个以希望破灭和伤心而著名的城市苦苦追寻梦想，还要辛苦地维持每天的生计，在此过程中二人相遇并相爱，彼此支持。这部音乐剧描述了追逐梦想过程的喜悦和痛苦。最终，两人都取得了自己最初梦想的成功，但代价是两人渐行渐远，已经不在一起了。影片末尾，当Mia与自己的丈夫到一家爵士乐酒吧，二人偶然相遇，Seb演奏完一首他们两人曾熟悉的曲子，Mia与Seb隔空目光接触，彼此送上一个会心的微笑，其中的欣慰，遗憾，伤感，不舍，回味，惺惺相惜，祝福，各种复杂心情，尽在不言中。Mia 转身离去，全剧终。

相爱的人，未必能长相厮守；“相濡以沫，不如相忘于江湖。。。”

Like they say, "Not everybody that comes into your life will stay, some come for a reason and some for a season."

 

 

[Sebastian:]
City of stars
Are you shining just for me?
City of stars
There's so much that I can't see
Who knows?
I felt it from the first embrace I shared with you

[Mia:]
That now our dreams may finally come true

City of stars
Just one thing everybody wants
There in the bars
And through the smokescreen of the crowded restaurants
It's love
Yes, all we're looking for is love from someone else

[Sebastian:]
A rush
[Mia:]
A glance
[Sebastian:]
A touch
[Mia:]
A dance

[Both:]
A look in somebody's eyes
To light up the skies
To open the world and send it reeling
A voice that says, I'll be here
And you'll be alright

I don't care if I know
Just where I will go
'Cause all that I need's this crazy feeling
A rat-tat-tat on my heart

[Sebastian:]
Think I want it to stay

City of stars
Are you shining just for me?
City of stars

[Mia:]
You never shined so brightly

本来也许会是另外一个更“美好”的结局，经典的童话故事里的happily ever after的结局，不过人生没有假如和如果，不可能重来。。。
