MonsterOfficial 11,079 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Lady Gaga Shines in Bradley Cooper’s Cover of the Enduring Musical It hits the occasional wrong note, but Cooper's directorial debut is still an earworm. To hear Bradley Cooper’s crooner in “A Star Is Born” tell it, music is the same story being told over and over again — just 12 notes between each octave, all of them eventually repeating. The magic lies in how they’re expressed. That’s a fitting note to hit in the fourth iteration of a story that’s proven more enduring than most songs written when the first “Star” was born 81 years ago, and it’s key to appreciating Cooper’s arrangement as more than just a cover. You don’t see “A Star Is Born” to actually watch a star being born, at least not anymore. Maybe you did in 1937, when William Wellman first brought the story to screen; or 17 years later, when Judy Garland led the best (and best-known) version of this enduring Hollywood fable; or even in 1976, when Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson tried to prove the third time’s the charm. But not now, when both Cooper and Lady Gaga have been shining bright for a full decade.

TropicOfCANCER 6,292 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Good! everyone is living for gaga's performance! even if the movie ends up having so-so reviews, gaga could still likely be nominated for oscars--it's happened many times before.
