Good, Heartfelt Drama!

Rating: 7/10 (12 February 2019)

Bradley Cooper directs and stars in this 2018 drama remake of the 1976 film
co-starring Lady Gaga, Sam Elliott and Andrew Dice Clay. Cooper plays Jack, a country singer who battles alcohol & drug addiction. He meets Ally (Gaga), an aspiring singer and falls for her. He takes her on tour with him and helps make her vocal presence known to the world. When Ally rises to fame, Jack is a bit jealous of her success and his addiction worsens. Elliott (Road House) plays Jack's brother, Bobby and Clay (Adventures of Ford Fairlane) plays Ally's father, Lorenzo. Dave Chappelle and Alec Baldwin also make appearances. This is a good, heartfelt drama, both, Cooper and Gaga give great performances and have good chemistry. I recommend this.
