Editorial Review:
A Star Is Born
Description of A Star Is Born:
Hollywood loved this story so much they remade it every 20 years or so for much of the 20th century; Barbra Streisand imbued it with so much forceful persona in 1976 that they haven't touched it since. The romantic/musical pairing of Streisand and Kris Kristofferson (chosen when no less than Elvis Presley turned the role down) may have been one of the era's strangest but, anchored by Streisand's elegant, Oscar-winning hit theme "Evergreen," it nonetheless yielded the biggest-selling album of the singer's career to date. That neither star is particularly convincing as rock icons--particularly Her Divaness--seems beyond the point of this fable. Instead, both stars take the opportunity to stretch outside their usual personas a bit, Streisand with the R&B teaser "Queen Bee" and confessional "Woman of the Moon," Kristofferson on rousing, theatrical fare like "Watch Closely Now" and "Hellacious Acres." --Jerry McCulley
A Star Is Born Reviews:
Lovely 
2009-10-15 - When I first saw the movie, I fell absolutely in love with the music. I was wowed by both Barbra and Kristofferson. I ran out and purchased this soundtrack. This was about a year ago. It remains in my easy to reach stack of favorite soundtracks/cds. I love it. It is an absolutely groovey, funky, and lovely compilation of music that went perfect with the film and stands strong by itself.

Unexpected Combination
2009-04-27 - I'm writing this for my Aunt Sophie who was born without any fingertips, thus she can't type very well and she's not looking for your sympathy, thank you very much. She thinks this is an unlikey couple for a movie and soundtrack, but says "opposites do attract each other, especially magnets". If you stretch your imagination and suspend your belief for a little while, you may enjoy it more than the blockbusters "Yentil" and "Yentil II, starring R Crumb". One other thing, my sister likes to call him Kross Kristifferson (ha ha) and even though he is an excellent songwriter and actor, he's a lousy singer (worse than that Bob Geldof famine relief dude who doesn't like Mondays). And, she thinks Streisand is undeniably an amazing singer, but kind of weird looking at the same time if you catch her drift...
