That's right, dearest darlingest listeners — another star is born! This week's Barbra Streisand episode tackles another long-ass movie-musical romance, this time her (let's say, controversial) iteration of the "Star Is Born" cinematic universe, with Kris Kristofferson and the awkwardly overbearing influence of Barbra's producer-boyfriend. So let's get our perms done, breakfast pizza out of the oven, and talk such amazing topics like extra backlighting, awkward racial undertones and side-boob!   Music by Barbra Streisand, Paul Williams, Kenneth Asher, etc. Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures   Show Notes The YouTube channel Be Kind Rewind's overview and comparison of all the ASIB movies Podcast You Must Remember This' episode about the making of Barbra's "A Star is Born"   Podcast cover art: David Taylor Twitter: @bwaybabies Facebook: Facebook.com/broadwaybabiespodcast
