The script is very weak, the heroine Renee Zellweger's acting skills can turn the tide, and it is worthy of the Oscar-winning actress

Judy Garland, a child star who was extremely repressed under the Hollywood studio system, had an unhealthy diet and depended on drugs to sleep, causing mental pain, and she spent her life making up for the pain of childhood. In middle age, her reputation plummeted because of her mental problems and her rebellion against oppression. She lost her job opportunity, but she has an extreme desire and love for the stage and performance. All kinds of inner emotions are superimposed. , Contradiction, struggle, painful life.

Jesse Buckley, who played Judy's childhood, was amazing when he appeared! I checked the character prototype Judy when she was a child, pure, clean, and aura. Such a beautiful girl is not allowed to even taste the taste of hamburger. Under the oppression of deformity, it is difficult for her personality and spirit to be healthy, which further led to 5 marriages. The tragedy, people have been weathered by middle age.

It is recommended to understand the background of the character prototype before watching the movie, so that you can be more moved when you sing over the rainbow at the end.

ps: The heroine of Lady Gaga's "A Star Is Born" remake of the original version is Judy Garland. The ups and downs of her life are embarrassing.

Judy quotes

  • Louis B. Mayer: Your name is Frances Gumm. You're a fat-ankled, snag-toothed rube from Grand Rapids. Your father was a faggot, and your mother only cares about what I think of you. Now do you remember who you are, Judy?

  • [first lines]

    Louis B. Mayer: What do you see beyond this wall? Picture it. You've got an imagination; go ahead. What I see is a small town in the Midwest. A handful of churches, somewhere for the farmers to get drunk together. Maybe a salon for their wives to do their hair on the holidays. I visit these places. These are the people who send us our profits. Who send us your wages. I make movies, Judy, but it's your job to give those people dreams. The economy is in the gutter, and they pay for you. And I'll tell you something else: In every one of those towns, believe me, there's a girl who's prettier than you. Maybe their nose is a little thinner at the bridge; they have better teeth than you; or they're taller, or slimmer. Only you have something none of those pretty girls can ever have. You know what that is?

    Young Judy: No, sir.

    Louis B. Mayer: You have that voice. It will maybe take you to Oz. Some place none of those pretty girls can ever go.
