Story :
A Star is Born
Bradley Cooper’s first directorial venture is truly
a delight and the well acclaimed story line gets a
new rendition, one that does do justice to it. The
passionate and talented musician lovers who
triumph through love has made fans feel something
for years and both Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper
steal our hearts once.
From the time Bradley discovers Gaga at a bar,
to the downfall of his career due to his alcohol
problem., the subtle ways in which people just give
in to the demands of a normal life, the humiliation,
the rise, the fall, the movie is more of a feeling train
than just dialogues and it truly makes an emotional
impact even though you might not burst int tears
right away.

Its not a story you do not know, but it makes you feel
so much. Empathy and emotiuon0- the two heavy
ingredients. The way the narrative progresses
makes you realize that maybe love alone is not
enough, it teaches you the value of a sacrifice.
Analysis :
Lady Gaga, in her first performance is astounding,
she owns the screen and all the actors provide
truly awe inspiring performances. Every
performance, every eye contact makes you feel
something, which goes to show what a great job
Cooper has done., even though we are all familiar
with the tragic love story, through their eyes, its
fresh, its anew.
Final Word:
A Star is Born conquers and truly sets one’s
heart on fire. The songs are soulful, the crowds
are magnetic and the actors give a terrific
performance. Special mentions for Shallow and La
vie en Rose.
