Babylon

Academy Award winner Damien Chazelle (Whiplash) directs an outré comedy set during the dawn of Hollywood as fledgling west-coast production confronts the rise of the movie star and the invention of sound. Aspiring actress Nellie LaRoy (Margot Robbie) is plucked from obscurity after meeting personal valet Manny Torres (Diego Calva) at a party attended by screen idol Jack Conrad (Brad Pitt). Becoming an overnight sensation just as Conrad’s career begins to fade, LaRoy and Torres must navigate an industry flourishing at a rapid rate and without boundaries.

Featuring an all-star cast and depicting hedonistic pre-code Los Angeles as never before, Chazelle’s epic joins such insider classics as Singin’ In The Rain, Sunset Boulevard, The Day Of The Locust and his own La La Land.
