Today's clip is yet another clip from my current film theory class - somehow posting these clips helps me study since I have to know about them anyway for my test that I am taking in about 8 hours from now. This exact sequence is one we watched in week 1 of Film Theory at VFS (that's Vancouver Film School). We were shown this clip to watch composition, color, light and size of the image.
There are three makes of "A Star is Born" (the first was made in the 30's, the second stars Judy Garland and was made in 1954, and the third, with Barbara Streisand was made in 1976...) And apparently there is a fourth one due out in 2012 starring Beyonce! I may have to watch the first three and then go see that.
Admittedly I know about them, know the music, but have never actually seen any of them. I think it might make a fun marathon to watch all 3 and compare and contrast (gosh, I'm a dork!)
But here is the Judy Garland version which was screened in class....
For any Gilmore Girl fans out there (mellyboo!) this was the same scene that Lorelai was watching in Season 5 during her (first) break-up with Luke and while she is watching this part of the movie in her house, Luke shows up at her door at the very end of the episode and they kiss and that's how they get back together.
