This one is the best. I didn't recognize Frederic March at all. Acting, directing was great. Thanks.
Thanks for watching! May the Sauce be With you.
I have nothing to say; you did it for me! Thank you so very much! And a big thank you, PizzaFlix!
Watched this so many times for me this knocks socks of all remakes .
THANK YOU so very much! I saw this years ago and fell in love with it. To me, nothing beats the classic!
The traveling trailer scene where shes cooking in it reminds me of the movie The Long, Long Trailer with Lucile Ball, 1953/1954. That was a good movie too.
@Ranjie Easterbrook Yes I know, Lucy's ex husband.
thanks for the OLD movie take care.
💛🌟🎆 thank you for sharing this wonderful movie !
I seen this MOVIE when I was a child. And loved it. I didn't know the name of the film , Here two decades later I found it out TONITE. LOVED IT THAN , AND STILL LOVE IT EVEN MORE. BEAUTIFUL STORY. THIS ONE IN MY BOOK IS THE BEST.THK U FOR BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES
Thanks for watching! May the Sauce be with you.
Well Dearest PizzaFlix, I'm crying again...As usual the media and the scavengers that go with them ruined another broken soul. The end when Vickie used Normans name made me so proud of the heart and loyalty she had for her husband. Her Granny took the cake, she was right when she said, "no matter where you run...you can't get away from yourself" It is the truest fact ever. As far as this being better than Lady Gaga and Bradly Coopers version I have to say I have followed Mother Monster from the very beginning and I love her so much. She has had alot of heartbreak and cruelty done her and she still has humility, heart and so much class. I sobbed for days after watching her in the Classic redone. She and her own music as well rings in my ears like and angelic message from God. She is truly blessed and I pray for her continued success and uniqueness as I will follow her to the end...
patriarchy, women equality, career, priorities all fades..when you are so much in LOVE..Loved you Norman, adored you ViCKY LESTER..Great movie Selznick Production
Best version of all. Thank you for this. Looks so much better than my dvd of the public domain version!
Joey Hooper you need to upgrade the original version. Excellent technicolor.
By far the sweetest, truest, the best love story of all of the "A Star is Born" films. It was beautifully told. So tender and with so much heart.
This is the best version.
It's nice to know that I am not the only one who enjoy the classics I'm not putting down remakes but sometimes in remakes something is lost just my opinion
I enjoy them as well.
You have a good OPINION.
I wonder if people who flocked to see Lady Gaga even know this exists???
I would not waste my time seeing that modern garbage myself.
I enjoyed the new movie but nothing will ever touch the Cukor film.
altogether there are 4 versions I think. There is Gaga, Kristofferson, this one, and one more I cant remember. I just watched the Gaga. I had no opinion of her before I saw it. Always liked Bradley, but was really impressed with his singing. He was quite good. The Streisand Kris vehicle was a real turkey. The Gaga version was entertainng, but it was really kind of boring. There are so many good books out there but we still have to keep watching the same story over and over. They say there are really only 10 stories. Boy gets girl, boy loses girl, etc etc. This is a good version because it was the first.
ziblot123 there’s Garland’s version
Ricardo Cantoral for me the 1937 wellman version is still the best.
I’ve enjoyed all the episodes of A Star ⭐️ is born
This is the first time I've ever seen any version of this movie. It's a dark glimpse at fame and celebrity. Another take on "be careful what you wish for". I enjoyed it. The acting was good. According to this movie, fame and celebrity isn't worth it. But I have to say, if given the choice, I'd take rich and miserable over poor and miserable. Thanks for the upload.
Darnelle Echols you must see the original 1937 version . Excellent technicolor. Best picture nomination. Best actress and actor and winner for best director.
I have never seen this original version so I am going to watch it tonight
Watched it last night and what a great movie. I didn't realize it had so many well known actors which made it even more enjoyable. Nice funny bits. Loved the grandma. Yes, I almost got teary eyed when Ester sees Norman's footprints
I've never seen this original version before and I really enjoyed it. Kinda wish there was a bit more of the spitfire Granny in it, especially after Esther "made it" in the movies. Absolutely LOVE the final outfit Janet wore in the end. Absolutely stunning. Thank you!
Isn’t vintage clothing just gorgeous? Especially the evening wear. Nothing modern compares to the elegance of 30’s evening wear. If you really want to be blown away, look at vintage Fortuny gowns. A miracle of manufacture, and I think it’s been a closely guarded secret♥️
So sad, his disease is ruining not only his life but hers. So she decides to give up her dreams to save him, he decides to end his life to give her the best life she could have! How tragic & sad...
Add a spoiler alert next time.
Seen all 4 versions.This one's the best.Said that after the 3rd one & the 2nd one.But Gaga's would be right under this one.
THIS MOVIE IS SPECTACULAR , and still the best of all the versions ! ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT ! STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL !
Actually I have now seen three versions of this movie and I really liked the one with Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristoffersen the best. I have not seen the one that was out last year and doubt that I will see it now. Once you know how it ends why bother and not that much of a fan of Lady Gaga. To each his own. Thank you for loading it to share. I am a fan of the old movies but guess I haven’t seen that much of Janet Gaynor as I wasn’t that impressed with how she looks. Was that her natural hair color?
@@shirleythompson6457 , we definitely have different tastes , but if you can look for the original ' 7TH HEAVEN ' ! or any of the early Janet Gaynor - Charles Farrell movies ! and see her in her prime , but actually her ' A Star is Born ' is priceless !
X X you are so right .
Remember Spencer Tracy opposite fredric March in the great classic Inherit the Wind Richard
I love May Robson ("Grandmother")! A force of nature. She could steal a scene in front of your eyes, and you'd be grateful.
Trivia: Janet Gaynor's signature and prints are to the left of Harold Lloyd's (10:25). You can just barely see the 'r' in her name.
Thank you for this gem.
Beautiful movie
Granny told her the truth!!!!!!!!
Which one?
The best version of A Star Is Born is this one.😈😈😈😈
Thanks for watching! May the Sauce be with you.
@@PizzaFLIX... and with your pepperoni spirit!
ABSOLUT4ELY I couldn't agree more. Lionel Stander really stood out as the press agent. Years later he would be in "Once Upon A Time In The West".
I noticed that those who are called Norman or Norma have a tragic epilogue (between reality and fiction) Norman Maine, Norma Desmond, Norma Jane
Pizza you always come thru, I ❤ you!! 🍕🙏😚💕💕The Original Version!!
The beautiful Janet Gaynor (1906 - 1984) started acting in school plays and had her first uncredited on-screen role in a 1924 short as an extra in All Wet. Her first film role, also in 1924, was in Cupid's Rustler - again an uncredited part. Remarkably, she made a string of uncredited films between 1924 and 1927 when she won the role of Indre in Sunrise: A Song Of Two Humans which scored her the very first Oscar for Best Actress:he was the youngest actress (at 22) to win this Oscar until Marlee Matlin (now 55, 2020) won aged 21 for Children Of A Lesser God. Under the then rules, this Oscar was also for her performances in 7th Heaven (1927) and Street Angel (1928). Sunrise is considered by some to be the best movie of the silent era and was a huge smash hit. Janet Gaynor was on her way to stardom. She was one of the relatively few actors/actresses to successfully transition into "speakies" and she was a major and very popular star in the 1930s: In 1931 and 1932 she shared the most popular box office actress accolade with Marie Dressler (1868 - 1934) and after Dressler's death she was unchallenged for the most popular ranking. Gaynor was often described as a successor to Mary Pickford (1892 - 1979) and starred in remakes of two of Pickford's films. In 1935 she starred in The Farmer Takes A Wife which introduced Henry Fonda (1905 - 1982) to the screen. A Star Is Born, another great success, won her an Oscar nomination for Best Actress. However by the late 1930s her success was waning and she was being eclipsed by stars such as Shirley Temple (1928 - 2014) and Loretta Young (1913 - 2000) and, although still being a major star, she retired from the screen at the age of 33, marrying for the second time in 1939 and having a child in 1940. She returned to TV screens in the early 1950s and played her final role in the 1957 film, Bernadine. She also had several stage roles including Harold and Maude (1980) and On Golden Pond (1982) which was her final performance. In 1982, she was involved in a serious car accident which left her with significant injuries. Less well known isthat she was an accomplished painter especially of vegetable and flowersd and she sold over 200 paintings in hrr lifetime. This version of A Star Is Born is undeniably the very best of the four versions - it was remade in 1954, 1976 and 2018 (by far the worst version).
TYTYTYTYTY!!!!! Been WAITING FOREVER for this one! BRAVISSIMO!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😘💕
SUPER MERCI POUR CETTE PETITE MERVEILLE D'ÉMOTIONS !.. MAGNIFIQUE DUO D'ACTEURS QUI VOUS FEND LE COEUR !.. BONUS PLUS À LA LE LES SCÉNARISTES !.. BRAVO À TOUTE L'ÉQUIPE !..
Thank you for this. The lady Gaga version doesn’t have the tension this film does.
Gaga is a MAN
Thank you for uploading.
I've never seen any version before this - wow, what a treat to see the original with no preconceptions! And wasn't pre-McCarthy era Hollywood script writing brilliant!!!
Well I knew that this film had remakes. I think it was done four times.
A classic and great movie.
One way or another, all of them are very good movies.
But this is a creation of Cinematic Art.
Easily the best of the four versions, beautifully filmed with early Technicolor.
I just luv grandmas powerful encouraging words of wisdom > 4:06
6$ per week for a room! RIchard
Richard Schewel In a Dragnet episode from the 60's , a boardinghouse room was $14/ week!
Woah I didnt expect it would end like that. I havent seen the gaga version yet but i thought it has the same story line, this one is heartbreaking. I also expected some musical but there was none. Anyhow, this is more realistic.
Much classier than Streisand's
perverse offering.
Yeah , my older sister dragged me to see that horse shit with her when it came out.
@@troynov1965
You have my wholehearted sympathy.
Anybody consider it ironic that the actress whose character harshly scolds Janet Gaynor's...would play the role of Auntie Em in the most famous Technicolor film of all time (not counting Gone With The Wind)? Further adding to the irony, all the scenes Auntie Em appears in were filmed in sepia tone.
In 1984 this was literally the first vcr movie I ever bought...at Walgreens for 3.00
Damn...
1938 omg this kinda films still exist its amazing..
There are tons of old films that you can watch , many are older than this. 1939 is considered the best year ever for films.
@@troynov1965 there are good old films i wanna watch ill search on them..
Eric Ismael correction, 1937.
March was such a good actor. Handsome man
I haven't seen the Lady Gaga version yet ( I have to get on that ), but I've seen all of the other version, which includes this one, and I like all of them.
Great movie.
How well the heroine has acted
I remember them all, This one...1954 Garland, 1976 STreisand Kristofferson, and 2019 Gaga. 4 versions. Time for a new story...please.
Remember Andy Devine he usually played in westerns this is one of his few dramatic roles Richard
A very good version; thank you.
"Some injin devil"
Kind of sours the whole entire movie doesn't it?
Awesome Excellent job thank you
Two years later Max Max Steiner wrote The Score also for gone with a win a Selznick project
_Once I told you that to get what you want, you have to give your heart in exchange._
02:53 mi MIL was raised to think seeing a movie was a sin. Cinemas were the devils lot. No good christian would be caught dead in one. Of course, they watched the movies on tv. Lol
I like so much old trains,old movies..💓
The absolute best
In the English movies the give importance to women which is a very good thing
A good story, movie. A good love story. Also, how alcohol destroy one life and hurts others. To bad alocholics don't care and refuse to listen to people that love and care about them in real life. People ought to appreciate true love.
Agreed, this is the best.

For every dream that comes true, you pay for it in your heart
Love!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I like this… BUT… I loved Judy Garland’s version… MY FAV! 👏🏽🤸🏽♂️💃🏽
Magic..
Gone with the Wind
This is the first time I watch the original Star is born movie and I love it. I love the remake of Star is born with Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper also.😍🎥⭐
33:30 Unhand that young lady, you scoundrel! Come up to his place, yeah right.
That was unnecessary. For sure, he could have overcome the alcohol. Too bad because she needed him. And she treated the granny badly. Narcissistic.
is it common knowledge there are 3 versions of this out there
#2 has Barbara Streisand and Chris Christopherson
Even though the film is in the public domain, Warner bros. has the original 35 mm master elements of the film, hope they restore it and release it one day. Would be by far a better restoration than the kino Lorber version.
12 minutes: Find yourself a casting couch babe.
...Awwwwh PzzF ...when it comes'ta Posting the BEST Oldies?
... *U B the Born Star*
...[ jimopo ....Tanks! ]
...Peace'n may God Bless. ...
Glad it’s G rated
Thank you Pizzaflix; this version is excellent yet I’m a diehard Judy Garland fan. Any chance of coming across her version.? Just spoiled. By the way, I couldn’t even watch the 2018 version
We don't have streaming rights for the Judy Garland version. Thanks for watching! May the Sauce be with you.
Thank you for the info
Aunt Mattie or "Auntie Em" was never supportive in this movie either.
Love this movie. I recognize "Max" from Hart to Hart. Lionel Stander. Wow. A Great story line and granny is a force of nature...kept right on.
I saaw some, but not all, of last year's version of "A Star Is Born" so did Bradley Cooper/Norm an Main character actually end up killing himself by "going out to sea", drowning?
Spoiler- no he hung himself
First version is best
Wow
Tragedy is she has to bear it alone
At the start of this film it is stated that the characters are fictitious. That is not true. This movie is based largely on the careers of John Gilbert & Greta Garbo; Gilbert was a 1920s Hollywood superstar; The true successor of Rudolf Valentino as "The Great Lover". He was also a temperamental alcoholic with a scarred childhood. Garbo was a newcomer when they met. Gilbert coached her & fell in love. Garbo was fond of him but also manipulative. They planned to marry but she jilted him. Gilbert went to pieces. His career declined while hers soared. He drank himself to death after several attempted comebacks. Because he made enemies in Hollywood Gilbert is largely forgotten while Garbo is still s legend.
CREEPSHOW sent me.
Love love love this drama!
No one like Judy Garland...even when Mrs Streisand and Lady Gaga did marvelous interpretations.
There is also 1954 adaptation with Judy Garland and James Mason.
INTERESTING TO FIND THAT THE MUSIC JUST BEFORE THE CREDITS END IS THE SAME THEME USED IN "SINCE YOU WENT AWAY" IN 1944
Didn't Bette Middler also do a version of 'A Star is Born'?
You may be thinking of "The Rose" her music pic very loosely based around the story of Janis Jopiln
PizzaFlix Thank you for clarifying that for me. :)
Bollywood Howl
All right, where's Frederic March riding on a white horse in shining armor to rescue her?
Yes thank you! Better than listening to Gaga wail!!
But they don't know how to pick stars anymore , at all
Oscar award lying on the floor was very touchy
I miss glass business doors, some old buildings still have them.
Worst part is to wait till one becomes a star
🔥🔥
Cute movie here…
1:04 💯

Was this movies colonized? They didn’t have color movies in 1937.
Do an internet search and you will find the history of Technicolor! Read/listen, you may actually learn something.
What did the ad Mean by "no cowboys".?
Back than discrimination was rampant in California rentals. “Cowboys” refer to the single athletic virile men who came to stunt act and act in western movies and they were seen as ruffians with very loose morals who fornicated a lot and got a lot of girls in Hollywood in trouble. To protect the girls living in the apts, the landlords wouldn’t allow these single stud/jock type of men to rent.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💚💛💜⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I dunno... I'm hooked on B&W. So this was the catalyst for the remakes that used well-known popular stars? Its a great movie. First time I've seen the original, I was just disappointed with the color. Made it seem to have been filmed after all the remakes with the color.
