Ms. Streisand has a great voice and a great stage presence, and she has made a number of good films in her career. For me, A Star Is Born is not one of them.

Barbara Streisand. Is. A Star Is Born. And two-shots have never been so completely arbitrary.

An ego project for Streisand and then companion Jon Peters, or a director (Frank Pearson), who can't handle his leading lady. Either way: This remake, marred by a fake, overly sentimental ending, is only worth seeing for Streisand's singing.

Streisand fans will like it, and the Oscar-winning song and Kristofferson's natural charm make it watchable for the rest of us.

hopelessly stuck in the bell-bottomed clichés of the ‘70s... hasn’t aged well and isn’t much fun to watch

This is supposed to be an attack on Hollywood, but it seems that Cukor has tunnel vision.
