A Star is Born
The best things about sleeping with a famous singer are the costume changes and pyrotechnics.
However, the vocalists in this drama are both gifted so sex gets pretty smoky.
After a concert one night, rock-star Jackson Maine (Bradley Cooper) inadvertently catches a performance by emerging artist Ally (Lady Gaga), and is so impressed by her vocal range that he offers to help refine her singing and song-writing talents. But as Ally's star begins to rise and she garners accolades and awards, her mentor - now husband - descends into drink and a deep depression.
Although this is the fourth remake of the 1937 original, first-time director Bradley Cooper and his leading lady Gaga both make stunning debuts, which helps the dated material feel relevant. While it's darker than previous versions, this adaptation has the added bonus of original songs.
Incidentally, marriage is a lot easier for rock-stars because they have roadies. Green Light
