Broadway Babies: A Musical Theatre Podcast

Ep. 68: "A Star is Born," 1976


Listen Later

That's right, dearest darlingest listeners — another star is born! This week's Barbra Streisand episode tackles another long-ass movie-musical romance, this time her (let's say, controversial) iteration of the "Star Is Born" cinematic universe, with Kris Kristofferson and the awkwardly overbearing influence of Barbra's producer-boyfriend. So let's get our perms done, breakfast pizza out of the oven, and talk such amazing topics like extra backlighting, awkward racial undertones and side-boob!

 

Music by Barbra Streisand, Paul Williams, Kenneth Asher, etc.

Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures
