She was attached. At that time, the cast was Madonna and Goldie Hawn, but there was no director attached. When Nichol

Isn't there a new rule that you can't send just the song out anymore, that you can only send it as part of the movie or something like that? I remember that being brought up when Remember Me won last year since it worked much better as part of the story than as a stand alone song, unlike This Is Me.
Yeah, remember on her talk show she used to spread rumors of being in the movie version of Chicago to try an make it happen? Well before the movie version ever came out?

I found the scenes chronicling Ally'smeteoric rise to be very by-the-numbers and underdeveloped, with no clear length of thetimeline. Was it weeks, months, a year? That might not matter to some, but it did to me.Also, Gaga's reactions to certain events during the second half seemedcontrived.

Streisand won an Oscar for Best Song for co-writing the song “Evergreen.”"
I know, but I don't know if there were any nods to Streisand in the new film like there was for Judy.

I promise you it's not a "Hillary Clinton play." It's more a "women in politicsplay" if anything."
Yeah, when they did it here in Dallas, they had a black woman play Hillary.
Disclaimer: I've never seen any version of A Star is Born.
I enjoyed this film much more than I thought I would. It hits a lot of great notes, and has some amazing performances (Sam Elliott for best supporting please). I really do think Cooper could win best actor, he was superb. Gaga was......capable? IDK I wasn't blown away, but I do think she did a great job (I got super emotional during the scene where he pulls her on stage). I also was glad they had a small nod to Garland

From what I can decipher she's gotten the opportunity to step out of that kind of role once or twice - but for the most part that's all she's been known to play.
She can do "Audrey" in her sleep at this point. It's not much of a stretch for her.

A Channing tour? It's surely been done in the round at places like Sacramento Music Circus or North Shore Music Theatre or the Marriott Lincolnshire, but there are virtually no in-the-round touring theatres in the US."
It may have been like maybe a one off production with Channing. She says it was her, because Channing h
Off topic, but can I just say that I'm still upset that due to ALW's version I may never get to realize my dream of playing Beef in a stage adaptation of The Phantom of the Paradise?

I'm so happy for more Dallas talent getting booked! I've seen Julie and Chamblee in so many shows here I've lost count. I'm just upset the tour, as of now, isn't even hitting Texas. If it does, I hope they'll still be in it.
This show grew on me to a point where I was in tears one day listening to the cast album. I love Idina, but Tonya should have won. I would love to see this show, but I'm mad I didn't get to see the original.
I just saw the tour in June. The entire stage felt cramped this time (it was my third time seeing the tour, but first since the update). And I really miss the chase sequence in Chow Down and the Can You Feel flying sequence.
