A Star Is Born, directed by Bradley Cooper and starring Cooper and Lady Gaga, is a fresh take on the classic tale of love and contrasting fortunes.

The movie is a show-stopping achievement, fueled by scintillating performances and a stellar soundtrack that will capture the hearts of audiences. ____________________________... read the rest.
