I don't have any words.
Never noticed before - Hoagy Carmichael's stool is in 'Seb's'.
Should have won Best Film Oscar (did the BAFTA) - went to Moonlight - and screenplay - went to Manchester By the Sea. And should have won Sound Mixing - Andy Nelson, Ai-Ling Lee and Steven Morrow (went to Hacksaw Ridge) and sound editing - Ai-Ling Lee, Mildred Iatrou.. and film editing (Tom Cross, went to Hacksaw Ridge).
The singing of key songs took place live on stage - not looped. Thus 'Someone in the Crowd', 'City of Stars' and in particular 'Audition' are all live, the latter complicated by the movement of a desk as the camera comes in. Which makes Emma's performance there all the more remarkable.
I love the really sarcastic way Ryan begins playing 'deck the halls' and then turns into a beautiful bit of jazz. And the scene with Ryan and his sister which you don't notice is a single take. I mean, these are just two little things in a film full of things I love.
"No, Jamal - you be tripping."
