A Star Is Born

* SPOILERS AHEAD *

Surfer Boy and I saw A Star Is Born yesterday and I left the movie feeling both awed by the music and totally bummed by the tragic ending.

So let me start by telling you what I thought of the love story.

It went something like this:

He's a drunk.

He's a drug addict.

He's cruel to his brother.

He's sometimes mean to me including telling me I'm ugly.

He embarrassed me in front of the world as I gave my thank you speech at the Grammys.

He's so jealous of me that he smears cake in my face.

He drags me across the country in his tour bus while getting high off his ass with all his groupies.

He loves me so much that he hangs himself by a belt.

But I love him.

Umm, okay.

And the fatal flaw that holds me back from achieving my dreams despite my crazy talent?

My nose is too big.

Umm, okay.

On the positive side:

The acting is fantastic.

The cinematography was beautiful.

Lady Gaga's voice is PHENOMENAL!

I may be unpopular in voicing my views on this love story but come on gals, this is 2019 for crying out loud.

Where'd all that 1960s bra-burning get us?
