Maybe the Best of the Four Versions

Rating: 9/10 (11 November 2018)

When Streisand made A Star is Born (1976), she was already a star. So was Judy Garland (1954) in the earlier and second version. You can say Lady Gaga is a star but she is not as well known as the other two. Streisand and Garland crossed generational boundaries in a way that Lady Gaga has only begun to do (with her Academy Award night tribute to Julie Andrews).
Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga. Who would have come up with this cast? Cooper directed and he and Gaga wrote some of the songs. I have not mentioned the first version (1937) with this title because Janet Gaynor and Adolphe Menjou played actors, not singers.
You should cry. Really. It is that good of a movie. With cameos spilling all over.
It will get some Oscar buzz and some awards. I won't predict, but it is one of THE movies to see for 2018.
