A Star Is Born

Director Frank Pierson
Run time 134 mins Certificate TBC

22nd November 2008

ok, well the DVD cannot be reviewed sadly - but I saw this at the cinema when it came out, and would love to be able to rent the DVD.

It's one of my all-time favourite films, because of the passion in song and acting that Barbra Streisand brings to it...

I also like Kris Kristofferson's performance in it.

The film can be sad and poignant, but joyful too.

I was confused by a previous review that seemed to indicate it was the film of a rock concert - yes there are clips of concerts in it that the stars in the film sing at, and I think one clip was a real life clip, but it is a story, as someone else said...mainly a love story..

and it's based on an old 1940's film, I think, that starred James Mason.
