There’s a second run movie theater (theatre for our Canadian
readers) near our house that shows movies just about the time that they’re being
released on video. So you get the Halloween movies at Christmas, the Christmas
movies at Easter and the Easter movies – well, there’s only Passion of the
Christ and Easter Parade I guess – you get those in the summer. By the way, those
two would be a great drive-in double feature, wouldn’t they?
So now the theater is showing “A Star is Born”. This is the
fourth production of this story. I’m afraid to go see it, not ‘cause I think it’s
scary but I’m afraid that the movies at this theater are SO old that they might
be showing that old Barbara Streisand version and not the 2018 Lady Gaga
version. (Is it Ga-ga or Gag-a?) Changing the names on the remakes would solve
this problem. I wonder if they considered naming it “A Star is Born Again”?
