"Funny Girl" steals a lot from this. Compared with the 37th edition, the longer duration makes the characters fuller, but it is inevitably lengthy, and the number of songs is not much relative to this volume, but there are still a few "unnecessary" (even this is also learned by "Funny Girl". past). Seeing the second version, I am more and more confused about the position of the heroine in the last line of her own identity. Is it a vassal or the eternity of love? The setting of men and women is quite interesting. The male protagonist is the heroine's life mentor and also an obstacle to his career. The heroine's behavior is mostly driven by the male protagonist's behavior. I wonder if the 18th edition will have a change in the spirit of the times in the new era.

    This movie is a true portrayal of Judy Garland's tragic life. At the Oscars in 1955, Judy Garland was lying in the ward waiting for the final result to be announced. A group of good reporters were waiting outside the door. Waiting for this little golden figure to give Judy Garland the final rescue. As a result, the heroine was taken away by Grace Kelly, and the reporters outside the door disappeared instantly. At this point, Judy Garland lost hope of the final recovery!

A Star Is Born quotes

  • Norman Maine: Of course you're scared! We all are! What makes you think you wouldn't be?

  • Vicki Lester: He's in a sanitarium. He really wants to stop drinking, Oliver. He's trying very hard. I know he is. What is it? What is it that makes him want to destroy himself? You've known him longer than anyone else. Tell me what it is. Please. I don't care but just tell me.

    Oliver Niles: Don't you think I've tried through the years to know why, to help him? I don't know, Esther. I don't know what the answer is.

    Vicki Lester: Well, I've got to find the answer. You don't know what it's like to watch somebody you love just crumble away bit by bit and day by day in front of your eyes and stand there helpless. Love isn't enough. I thought it was. I thought I was the answer for Norman. But love isn't enough for him. And I'm afraid of what's beginning to happen within me... because... sometimes I hate him. I hate his promises to stop and then the watching and waiting to see it begin again. I hate to go home to him at night and listen to his lies. My heart goes out to him because he tries - he does try. But I hate him for failing. I hate me, too. I hate me cause I've failed, too. I have. I don't know what's going to happen to us, Oliver. No matter how much you love somebody... how do you live out the days?
