A Star is Born (Out Now!)

Quote:

Bradley Cooper’s Triumphant A Star is Born is an Instant Classic
Occasionally you see a movie and immediately know it's up there with the all-time greats. Now is one of those rare times.

It’s one of those rare movies that grabs you from the opening shot and then just gets better and better with each passing scene; within the first few minutes, you know you’re in the hands of a born filmmaker and can just sit back with the trust that your faith will be rewarded – which it is, many times over.

The result is a film with the breadth of an epic ensemble piece and the intimacy and undiluted emotional impact of a character study by Bergman or Cassavetes. And it’s not just a movie of multiple points of view – it’s a movie of multiple subjects and even multiple styles and genres, all of which are kept in perfect tonal balance by Cooper.

The undeniable standout is Lady Gaga, whose performance here goes far beyond what we typically think of as great acting and moves into the territory of, say, Gena Rowlands in A Woman Under the Influence. The role requires her to play every note on the emotional scale from the depths of despair to the joyous exuberance, and Gaga is flawless in every scene. Her work proves the cliché about the specific becoming universal, as she plays each moment in surprising, unique ways and makes bold choices no other actress would conceive of, yet gives each of those moments a profound and affecting sense of recognition for the audience – every triumph and every heartbreak feels utterly honest and relatable, and it all builds to one of the most emotionally shattering finales I’ve ever encountered in a movie.

An Oscar is BORN :flutter:

When will Swept Away?

Idk what that is :eyes:

Mess. Lady Gaga can't act this is going to suck.

Poor Bradley Cooper he can do better.

I'm not suprised she has moved to acting after her music career has gone south though.

Her Golden Globe says otherwise. :love:

*also won a golden globe but ok, I guess if Tibbs very own Douglass says she can’t act they may as well scrap the whole film :bawling:

You must be another level of jealous

Lets be real she was awful in Hotel and the stars of that series were Dennis O'Hare and Kathy Bares. Lady GaGa was awful and clearly won just because she was a pop star. She was shockingly bad and her seasons were cringey.

Nominations /wins mean very little.. I mean Adina Poter has been nominatted for an Emmy. out of all the AHS cast.. she can't act for **** and don't try and justify that she can [I have liked her characters but they're all one note] :eyes:

Jealous of a pop star that had two popular albums and then disappeared from mainstream music and just flopped since.... Nope.

I think Bradley Cooper is great though, shame about the leading female though. Zendaya / Amanda Seyfried would have been great choices and would have propelled the film so much further. They'd probably cost more though.

I mean Steps still have fans.. It doesn't mean they're relevant to todays industry though.

I just don't think shes a good actress and so I don't think the film will be any good.

I mean she just performed to stadiums around the world on her most recent tour, but go off with no fans I guess!

And thanks for providing your opinion on something you haven’t even seen and which has only garnered positive press so far!

I love a multi-talented queen

Yeah, look at all those worldwide tours Steps do and the millions of albums they sell across it. :unsure:

Ffff the review broke an embargo and got taken down :skull:

Miss Gaga coming for her crown.

Viola Davis and those other hoes be gone.
