Great surprise, to me...

Rating: 7/10 (3 March 2019)

What a surprise! I approached this film, with a slight hint of romantic stupid for the mass ... and, instead, surprise! The actors are true, in the clear and, if desired, banality of the type of characters; but they are true, the life described is true, and there is not much of exalted or fake. Lady Gaga (i do not listen, but i know how to be a singer of absolute talent, sold to the world of pop music) is endless: beautiful, real, meaty, shameless to be seen beautiful in his adorable physical imperfections, good! Beautiful character; Cooper is able to carve out the role of shoulder and give her the stage, and this is from mature actors. I would say that as a first director has got it right on everything. We are not facing a masterpiece, but a film certainly mature and aware of its "normality", as normal we are, ordinary people, and they, famous people, basically we are all people, who try to go beyond their own "shallow". A word on "Shallow", in fact... it's been about 30 years that a song did not make me cry.
