After jack committed suicide I remember my dad walked out of the theater. Cause he had a friend who was a drug addict who eventually killed himself, and the scene got to him. And he’s not a very sensitive man.
My dad killed himself. And I never understood why, he loved my mom too much to spend any amount of time away. This movie brought me into the moment with him and I almost forgave him. I watched once. Partially.
@@a.munroe My mom delivered the eulogy at my father's funeral. They split when I was in diapers: I was in my mid 50s when he passed. I wrote the words at her direction (one of four I'd written for her to deliver) - her message was that forgiveness is *not* for the transgressor, but for the one who *_forgives._* You forgive not to absolve _them,_ but to release *yourself* from carrying that burden, shouldering that weight, harboring that hurt and... _hate._ Free yourself... let him go. Let him be, and *live your life.* Love *_yourself_* enough to forgive
This channel always manages to sway me when it comes to agreeing with your videos. Until now, I never really saw "Shallow" as a metaphor for Ally and Jack's circumstances at the beginning and the end of the film, but now that I've thought about it further, I agree that it really fits. Sometimes, you just need to "take the plunge" into the uncertain body of water. While you're not sure if the water will be shallow or deep, freezing or warm once you're submerged in it, it might help to take a dive regardless. This theme is beautifully bookended throughout the movie, with Ally performing her solo song for Jack, an adoring audience of one, to when she begins to find fame in front of a large crowd, and then again once she finds as balance between her shy and flashy personas.🌟
@@markdavidofficial4274 Well it is pop but you can still see the progression in her sound and the personnalization of her lyrics. I guess I meant unpersonnalized studio pop to personnalized!
I have admiration for Lady Gaga's talent but I enjoy her singing way more when she's just Stefany Germanotta I remember when "Gaga" sang a tribute to Julie Andrews at the Oscars and Andrews response a classy, "Thank you so much, Stefani." Sort of like when John Lennon sat down to talk with Mick Jagger for TV and his reponse started with, "Well, Michael...".
It's always awesome to hear you talk about story themes, but it's another level of cool to hear you get technical and examine things like cinematography. Great stuff. Ally's manager sucked, btw.
In short, this version seems to differ from the others in that it's functionally an opera. One cannot separate the music from the acting and the story than one can separate muscle from bone and skin with your bare hands.
This duet gave me the same amount of adrenaline rush and euphoria as when Joe Jonas joined Demi Lovato in that stage in Camp Rock for 'This is Me', only, yknow, with considerably more tears
And here I thought it was a message about addiction. How addiction destroys lives and potential. It's been meaningful to generation after generation because millions of women could RELATE. not because it told people not to be shallow, but because it showed women their own lives, the way they looked to a man as her future... And then the drugs or alcohol destroy him before her eyes...
@@sina3602 I totally agree .........it showed me that it is how my last 20 years have been suffering PTSD and Mental illness and there is no light just darkness and no way out for me.
i’m the type to love rewatching my favorite movies, but there have only been 2 movies where i can’t rewatch it at all bc the movie as a whole was literal art and i felt every single emotion the protagonist felt, like i was a part of them. those 2 movies would be train to busan and the latest a star is born.
06:58 I'm not sure if the reason he ends his career/life is because of him being unable to handle his emotions. He had just started facing up to his mistakes. Part of his motivations in killing himself is misplaced guilt.
Wow I even cried during this video :D I really did not expect this movie to be so raw and heartfelt but .. it really is. And I love how you brought emphasis to the great cinematography and lighting, too!!!
I appreciated lady Gaga even more after hearing her songs like 'shallow',I'll never love again and always remember us this way..her vocal quality is gorgeous!❤she's more than just a singer having outrageous kind of production numbers at concerts,she can play piano write meaningful songs,can even act in a camera!!lady Gaga is like a precioUs jewel,that should be given such great care!!
the final scenes gave me real chills all over. i've never felt this way at the movies before. everything seemed so real and it was truly heartbreaking - even though i've already known that jack would kill himself.
This is the best movie EVER and I am 74 yeas old. Lady Gaga (which I never really liked) I love her now as she is an amazing young super young lady and singer along with Bradley Cooper. Love you two so very much. Hugs to you two super young people. xoxox
It's such a simple movie, really, filled with plenty of clichés and toxic notions on what constitutes "love." The codependency, the control and manipulation-- so what if she wanted to be a pop star? She's allowed to change her mind, she's allowed to explore her artistry and make her own choices. He threw a giant tantrum because she was no longer what he wanted her to be. It's almost like he didn't love her at all, but rather the idea of her, what she represented. Something to ~save~, something to conceal his own avoidance, drinking, and dependency needs. That said.... the movie wrecked me. I felt all of it. I loved their chemistry and desperately wanted them to overcome the predictable, inevitable, tragic downfall they were headed for. Just once, I'd like to see Hollywood portray a "success" story for an addict. It doesn't always have to end in tragedy.
Valid argument and shortcoming of the film, but if Jack’s to be considered a reliable narrator, then it does feel like Ally did “sell out.” They could’ve probably added a few more scenes to refute or confirm this.
As both a musician and a dancer, I feel very touched by this video analysis and I should really watch this movie. Connection in dancing and on stage while performing music is the most intense. Basically stage is an intensified version of Life and I totally understand that some stars can't deal with how pale the normal world can feel in comparison. Stage is high, bright, crazily intense and... addictive.
gr8 work ladies I saw this movie and it literally changed my life and what I thought about Gaga. WOW she is so talented and Cooper built this movie around her strengths. I watched all the old versions (to confirm just how good this movie really is) but of course they were all poorly acted and lacked relatable emotional connection (very superficial performances which lacked propensity and depth). Cooper still has >25yrs of creativity ahead and if here gets even close to this debut movie's depth he certainly is not going to be shallow. As for Gaga, she has already "made it" not only as an international entertainment superstar but now adds "accomplished actor" to her resume.
@Gatto Di Ossa He didn't? You sure you replied to the right comment? Alfonso Cuaron is a masterful director though. You must not have seen Children of Men or Gravity.
This was beautiful movie and it actually had me crying towards the end of it. Lady Gaga is just so talented in many different ways...hope to see more of her in movies as she did an amazing job!
@@aleksahadzic9302 one of the best shows ever. The episode called "The Constant" is the most brilliant writing ever. It's the episode when Desmond time travels, grasping for Penny.
Is it crazy to think that I woke up this morning wondering if The Take was going to make another A Star is Born video and I go on TH-cam and there it is. Crazy
The reason why this movie charge people so deeply. Was because in all actuality they were not acting. So when they were singing together and looking into each other's eyes they weren't acting they really love each other. That's why the movie seemed so authentic to so many people. As a star was born another star died so the other star get brighter. That would be called a selfless Act. In what way in the beginning Ali was in the shallow Bradley Cooper was in the deep end way way too deep for him to handle it. I do like your version l very much. I think the real story , is that they really are in love with each other.
Enjoyed this lady’s narrative of the facts, could understand her and she put some exclamation behind it , could watch video without struggling to understand robotic voice and mispronunciations thks well done,
I want to tell you guys that I love your videos, and there are a lot of Chinese like your videos, but we can't use TH-cam in China, so we transport them to one of the webs like TH-cam. I hope you can start your own channel in BILIBILI, which is a Chinese website so you can be surprised by the large group of unknown fans.
This movie is good and so beautiful. One of the best movies I watched. I'm going to watch this movie for like the third time now but with my boyfriend.
Wonderful, girls!! Also, I would like to point out Lady Gaga also mentioned to Stephen Colbert that we live in shallow times, and we long for that depth and honesty. Being dowsed forcefully in mind-numbing entertainment like the Kardashians, reality tv turned nightmare that is Trump, you can tell real, talented people are actually making it a point to react to this and make a shift, imploring people to go deeper. The song deserves its accolades and widespread popularity because of this.
I try to be a person to come along and tell people how amazing they are and try to help them with their lives so far only works with online motivation in real life it’s pretty hard, (Ofcourse).
What I found interesting is that unlike the older versions it's when she no longer has her creative agency the narrative turns against her, she's pushed by Cooper's character the majority of the film to go into music and it's when she begins to exercise her control over her career she's considered a "sell out".
Interesting. I didn't see her having control of her career. Rez told her to change her hair color. He told her she had to have dancers and rebuked her when she went without them. He told her she couldn't bring Jack with her and went to Jack behind her back. He looked pretty controlling to me.
I found the suicide too depressing. Couldn't watch the movie again...much less pick a more positive outlook. I can say though, it was very emotional. The heart was there
As good as Gaga is in this movie, what really stand out for me was the incredible talent of Bradley Cooper´s performance and direction. He really stoled the movie.
Damn... the thing you guys said about the end of the movie, about being that vulnurable was the trully begging for ally, MAN.. great point made, thank you
I wonder what Barbara Stanwyck thought about the previous three "A Star is Born" movies (four if you add the one with another name) that borrowed so much from her and her husband's life.
@Gatto Di Ossa Where do I say that she starred in any of these movies? Learn a little bit of Hollywood history, kid. Barbara Stanwyck's early life is almost exactly the plot of, "A Star is Born". She must have know that the story was based onb her life. If you had any sense you would apologize, but I'm not waiting for it. I'm sure that you will double down on your cognitive dissonance.
Hey there the Take! First off congratulations on your Entertainment Weekly collaboration that’s pretty cool. Secondly I was wondering is there some master list of your episodes. Specifically I’m wondering if I can get a look at the credits to see which narrator voiced which episode. Cause I know Susannah did them for a while and then the job was taken over by Grace Langstaff and if I recall correctly on occasion one Alani waters narrated the videos. I’m asking because I find the speaking voices of your narrators delightful and they were certainly a contributing factor in my decision to subscribe to you. Accordingly I’d love to see who narrated which episodes. Thanks you!
I love this channel and all of your videos and insight, but I am consistently astounded by how much people loved this flick. It has soooooo many writing and editing problems. But hey, Lady GaGa sure can write a good tune.
Why this hasn't been critiqued enough for actually being a 2nd grade SHALLOW movie? Honestly, I wouldn't be able to analyze it that thoroughly due to its vague storytelling. And to talk about reluctance of real cause-and-effect storyline... it's just Shallow as it is!
Gina Daydreams LOL same here. I feel like one of the few people who didn’t just fall in love with this movie. Maybe all the extreme hype raised my expectations too much.

My mom delivered the eulogy at my father's funeral.
They split when I was in diapers: I was in my mid 50s when he passed. I wrote the words at her direction (one of four I'd written for her to deliver) - her message was that forgiveness is *not* for the transgressor, but for the one who *_forgives._*
You forgive not to absolve _them,_ but to release *yourself* from carrying that burden, shouldering that weight, harboring that hurt and... _hate._

1:33 A Star is Born. Don't be 'Shallow'.
7:49 Intimacy on screen. Subjective cinematography.

Nice vid, I loved it.
Never stop making these videos. Your voice is important.

See instagram plenty of art but what isn't hacky, what isn't being sold, what actually says something without being cliche.
Bradley has dealt with alchohol addiction in the past.He could basically feel the character and it added to his wonderful direction
Bradley Cooper deserved an Oscar nomination for directing
I agree, while he did get nominated for Best Actor, he definitely deserved a nod for directing as well!🎬🏆
Definitely over stupid Adam McKay
Roma
Ya man I’m still baffled at how McKay was chosen over him 🤷🏻♂️
To be fair though I think Cuaron has this award in the bag and fully deserves it
Actually no but he winner should have been yorgos lanthimos' the favourite
I love how the story is similar to gaga's. She started with simple pop and elevated herself to what she is today which is closer to her true self!
It’s still pretty simple dude
@@markdavidofficial4274 Well it is pop but you can still see the progression in her sound and the personnalization of her lyrics. I guess I meant unpersonnalized studio pop to personnalized!
gaga was always her true self
this movie is the total opposite of what Gaga was...
Gaga was never “simple pop” I would say the opposite. Her music back then had so much more meaning. Look into it and you will see.
I have admiration for Lady Gaga's talent but I enjoy her singing way more when she's just Stefany Germanotta

This analysis makes me feel the same emotions as the movie did. It even made me cry. Wonderful video essay from you guys! And insightful as always.
I bloody cried even watching this video
damn! i thought i was the one :D sobbing so much right now T_T
Saaamee
me too!!!!!
And that makes 5 of us

It's always awesome to hear you talk about story themes, but it's another level of cool to hear you get technical and examine things like cinematography. Great stuff.
Ally's manager sucked, btw.
Bradley Cooper was ROBBED of that Best Director nomination.
In short, this version seems to differ from the others in that it's functionally an opera. One cannot separate the music from the acting and the story than one can separate muscle from bone and skin with your bare hands.
I’m crying all over again
Please do “The Favourite”!
Yes! They'll likely do an analysis of all of the Best Picture nominees, but I'd especially like to see it get a full on observation.
That would be beautiful!
Yes! It's so deep in its metaphors!
Yes! I especially want to hear their, um, *take* on that final David Lynchian scene.
Alice Han OMG that would be brilliant
This duet gave me the same amount of adrenaline rush and euphoria as when Joe Jonas joined Demi Lovato in that stage in Camp Rock for 'This is Me', only, yknow, with considerably more tears
I watched it for the first time last night, i felt the raw pain as Jackson went through his addiction. I cried hard.
And here I thought it was a message about addiction. How addiction destroys lives and potential.

And then the drugs or alcohol destroy him before her eyes...
You could say it has more than one kind of message to send. You can make of it what you want.
Bradley himself said that its also about mental illness, trauma, addiction and love so you're also right
I thought it was more about depression. And his addictions were more of a symptom rather than the cause.
Well that's the great thing about art. It means something different to everyone.

When you're an addict what you're addicted to is the 1 driving force in your life, that's a creative block.
They have. They portrayed Ray Charles' addiction as not a tragedy at all. He overcame it and triumphed.

This movie should have won the Academy Award no contest...............
Another great vid girls.. keep it up
I like this video way better than the movie itself.
Gina Daydreams LOL same here. I feel like one of the few people who didn’t just fall in love with this movie. Maybe all the extreme hype raised my expectations too much.
Did anyone else cry while watching this video?..... No?.....
Me neither 😢
Brilliant! ❤❤❤
