share
this
feeling
with
my

La
Land'
family," said

also
got
nominated
for
the

Actress.
"I'm
also
overjoyed
that
the
movie
has
connected
with
audiences
in
the
way
it
has,
and
that
it's
hopefully
putting
a
kick
in
their
step
to
those
who
watch
it."
"This
is
beyond
any
of
our
wildest
imaginings
and
we
can't
wait
to
celebrate
together."
Said
the
actress.

Who

"I
am
so
humbled
and
grateful
for
the

said
director
Damien
Chazelle.
"I
am
thrilled
that
the
Academy
is
celebrating
the
work
of
Emma
and
Ryan,
who
brought
these
characters
to
life
with
such
humanity
and
depth,
and
also
the
work
of
my
college
roommate
Justin
who
created
the
beautiful
music."
The
director
