This, the second of four movies entitled A STAR IS BORN (1937, 1954, 1976 and 2018), writes it's story around Judy Garland's big voice and big production pieces. It, too, garnered award attention from its generation. For a modern audience its over 3 hour length may feel like a bit of a marathon, but for those who love classical movies and big production pieces this will be a treat. The bare bones of the original story are there but this movie switches the focus from movies to big screen musical productions. Of the four movies, this is my least favourite, but I still give it a 7 (good) out of 10. [Musical Drama]

Some of the songs and dances are good but it is too long.

Although it started slow, it became a good movie with a nice plot and great acting. The musical numbers are adequate and all the direction is good. I found strange that some scenes are lost and presented with photographs.
