SharkmanthaC 114,698 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I'm finally watching A Star is Born at home. (I saw it 5 times in theater.) I'm curious what your favorite (and least favorite?) scene is from ASIB. We all know there are iconic scenes, Shallow, Jackson's final scene, etc., but what's your top? My favorite is probably the parking lot scene and the drag bar scene. Least favorite, besides Jackson's final (Charlie gets to me everytime), is Scene 98 (the bathtub scene). The acting is amazing, but it triggers my PTSD a bit. Spoiler Before you come for me, I wanted to wait to watch it until I didn't have to do homework, grade papers, write lesson plans. I wanted to just watch it. (And yet, here I am on GGD. ) she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonkers 29,673 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 My favorite scene was at the Grammys. The mess of it all, and never has a need for Depends™ been so oscar worthy.

EKai 174 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 My fav is the ending starting from the dialogue between Bobby and Ally to the last glance at the camera. My least fav is Gaga's first one in the bathroom. I think it is terrible and not needed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure how it fits in, other than to introduce her character. It has always felt kind of out of place to me too. she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smother Em Eh 7,139 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Just a side note you should put Spoilers in the title or description of this thread as people’s answers could give a lot of the movie away to those who have not seen it yet. (Even though it’s release was nearly 4 months ago) Anyway, Fav Scenes: Bathtub, Shallow, Heal Me & Grammys Least Fav: The Ending Get Applause & G.U.Y to 1B views!

Angelm 8,655 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 My favorite: The phasing between Shallow live at the JWT and Jackson’s death, the ambulance lights flashing in that shot of the house. “Give it up for my husband jACKson” Least favorite: Ramon greeting Jackson aka “papo “ at the bar, and all the *lines that said “i’M wHaT?” & “¿w h a t?”.

But just in case, I added it. she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwerk 7,271 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 The scenes with her dad in the beginning of the film are precious and funny in a cute way. Like how she turns away the driver at the door. I also love the scene where Jackson is jealous of Ally and smears cake on her face, love her response to it. And when they're in the grocery store, it always cracks me up how awkward and cute it is. Come to think of it all my fav scenes are funny but with an underlining sadness. Her dad telling his friends how talented his daughter is but she never made it big and her being stuck in a rut. Her dealing with the drinking of her man and trying to maintain some control over it. And the moment the cashier takes a picture and hits a nerve with Ally. 38 minutes ago, EKai said: My least fav is Gaga's first one in the bathroom. I think it is terrible and not needed. Same. That Rodger guy has no business being in the movie. To me they didn't have to illustrate her being done with men in this way. It also reminded me of Gaga a bit too much, the way she talks in the opening op 5ft2 and her relationship with Taylor. It feels very unlike Ally to me. I would've preferred her opening scene to be her hard at work waiting tables. With lots of close ups of her face with her expression changing from serious to all smiles when she's talking to guests. It also would've made her walking out on her job a bit more believable. According to Gaga I'm a ****ing rad bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the piano version at the end was at the JWT, an empty show, you can see the catwalks in the roof. Idk where were the other songs performed aside from Coachella.

LaLa 19,704 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 My favourites are: in the dressing room after La Vie En Rose when Jack takes off her eyebrow... I just love the way she looks at him through the whole thing. And also the scene where she goes to visit him at rehab. There is so much going on under the surface there. Least fav: Grammy scene. It's too well done and it triggers my anxiety so badly lol. I've never actually watched the entire thing with my eyes open and I've seen the movie... many... times lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
