Monday 16 January, also known as Blue Monday, is supposedly the most depressing day of the year. With flurries of snow outside as I write there is just one thing to do this weekend – cosy up in the dark with a bag of popcorn and a sackful of fantasy at the cinema.

La La Land is probably the perfect film for combating Blue Monday. It’s on pretty much everywhere:at the Phoenix all weekend; Crouch End Picture House; the Art House Crouch End and Vue Wood Green.
