A Star Is Born - A Musical Feast

A good piece of music sometimes doesn't care about the music itself, but the story behind the music. This sentence comes from the sentiment of a friend in the circle of friends!

In fact, what attracted me to this movie may not be the opening music, but the reason why the male protagonist listens to the female protagonist in the bar and cannot enter the music industry: it is not that she has no talent, nor that she does not have a good voice, It's her big nose!

A world that only pays attention to appearance and ignores talent, so she can only write her own songs in a no-man's room, hum her tune casually in a no-man's street, and live the life of ordinary people. Afraid of other people's eyes, afraid of their own singing! Because everyone just talks about her big nose.

It's actually a true story, and one that I've read in a book I've occasionally read recently. That's the real reason why I wrote this movie. There has indeed been such a female star in American music history with a big nose. When people hated her big nose, she didn't give up her music career until she reached the pinnacle of music. Everyone's eyes ranged from disgust at the beginning to emulation at the back, love. Actually, I'm not trying to talk about psychology or philosophy here. You just need to be yourself!

This is also another thing I see from the movie besides the good music in this movie. That is to be who you are, no matter how great you are, and don't forget your original purpose.

Just like when the male protagonist was drunk and met his old friend on the side of the road. When two people came out of a remote place, and now they are sitting together in the courtyard in the afternoon talking about the beginning: a person stays in one place for a long time, then he is stable, it is only for a while at first, then a few years later, and then I don't think about it. Moved, and in the end I forgot where I was going...

In fact, it is hard to imagine that such a movie has been remade four times, from the original 1973 to the present in 2018. It doesn't matter how big the span is, but it is still very popular in the West, and its reputation is overwhelming.

Of course, the most commented on the Internet is the American Dream! But I don't feel anything, a good story with good music. I like it, and I hope you all like it too!

    When Cast had LadyGaga, it was destined to be a topical movie, and naturally more people would look at it with critical eyes. Gaga’s performance is very hard, and the effect is really good. Cooper is really bright, and the film is still very pleasing to watch without subjective glasses.

    The first half is like a dream come true, every note is romantic and touching, and the solo in the second half loses its brilliance... Love can make people shine, and it can also take away all the light.
