Review of A Star Is Born (1954) by Jennifer X — 05 Aug 2007
Magnificent if you can get past the first hour and you stop expecting them to burst out in song every 5 minutes. This isn't one of those classic MGM musicals per se, as in, nobody does any singing but Judy Garland and she only does it when she's supposed to.
The first hour was extremely boring (excluding two showstopping songs), the second was magical, and the third sublime. Best songs I have ever heard anybody belt out in a while. Even though Judy Garland was supposedly declining from drug use her singing pipes certainly hadn't.
