    A Star is Born ..... movie

    Saw this the other night.
    First movie I’ve seen in years.
    Rented it and watched it twice in 2 days.
    Great soundtrack and gut-puncher.
    Highly recommend

    A movie without a black in a lead role will never win Best Picture again.

    I consider myself a man’s man... some of my favorite movies include Goodfellas, Gladiator, Rounders, Shawshank Redemption, Old School...

    But I have to say A Star is Born was absolutely phenomenal. I just watched it Friday night with my wife and I still keep thinking about it and have the songs stuck in my head. I never go to the Saloon here but just checked in to post about this movie and I see you beat me to it! Great acting, great story, one of the most emotionally moving movies I’ve seen in a long time.

    I havent seen Green Book or Roma (heard it was awful) but I’ve seen most Best Picture winners over the years and most are shit in my opinion. I know they don’t give it to any genre other than Dramas and I’d be shocked to see a better drama this year.

    Sadly, I believe this is 100% correct
