Re: La La Land
totally intentional. the first half is the "dream" of Mia and Sebastian to fall in love. the musical numbers are fantastical and they are swept up in the romance, because they haven't achieved their creative goals yet
second half is the "reality" of what it takes and what sacrifices have to be made to achieve the other dream of being a successful actor or musician. no more production numbers (until the final "what if" epilogue). the reality is never as enticing as the dream, but it is the only thing that anyone is ever truly stuck with.
