The previous versions of A Star Is Born haven't been my cups of tea, not really big into country music, the 70s version i don't mind but it is just a one and done type of film for me. I was blown away by the trailer for this, and the film it self does the same. It is a film about stardom, about aspirations, a film about addiction, suicide, jealousy, relationships, friendships, it is a film about saying fuck the status quo and appealing to the masses while accepting your position of conforming. This is a funny film, this is a sad film, but most importantly it is a powerful film. Bradley Cooper gives his best performance and Lady Gaga truly breaks out as an actress. Her voice, her beauty, he acting all demands our attention. Cooper will have a great directing career and Gaga will have a great acting career, and i hope both of them receive lots of attention of awards season.
