It'll take a lot for Gaga to out do Judy Garlands performance but I'll def go see it.

I was just about to say that. It looks like hokey bullshit and I'm sick of seeing Bradley Cooper in films that don't kick ass.

The correct attitude is to connect something you dislike to somebody you dislike and argue against it as if it's their ugly baby.

Must be running out of ideas in Hollywood if this got remade, again.
Judy Garland and James Mason were fine the first time. Kris Kristofferson and Barbara Streisand were great the 2nd. Is the third time supposed to be a charm? |

Trchnically yes, absolutely true. 1937 film wasnt a musical however. The 76 and 2018 version are remakes of the 54s musical rewrite and not the original. The film from 37 deserves credit though thats fair.
Still its Garland's performance that is the definitive version in my mind. |

Haven't seen the previous takes. Thought this was completely original until I read up on it.

People want remake to be a dirty word. I dunno. I like theater though and in theater you see different tropes take on old plays all the time. Its exciting to see their take on the story. One will end of beung better but it doesnt invalidate the others as a rule there's still loads to be enjoyed about new performances. Especially true for musical theater.
To that end i really want a theatrical remake of west side story...film could be very topical with some minor tweaks |

She looks incredibly endearing in this movie based on the trailers.

This was wonderful
Might write something up later but cooper has a lot of legs behind the camera and Gagas performance is really great. Their on screen chemistry is really exceptional. |

Gaga is as good as Streisand ever was with what looks like ease. If she makes a career out of musicals im on board.
Cooper is serviceable but not memorable but it doesnt bog down any of the duets. His performance is the best anyone has done withthe role however if you look past the musical numbers. Also theres some nudity for the guys gaga for Gaga. |
