Touched by Love (1980)
Love this film and Diane Lane.
I recall this film younger too, as I am the same age as Diane Lane now. But saw it again years ago and it still gets to me, and true. She was and is a great actress, especially at such a young age. I had seen her in Broadway a few years back, and she was wonderful and looked great. I was able to get it in dvd from Flashback DVD's for those interested as well.
So enjoy. It really holds up well still, and was not a fan of Elvis but that touched me as well. But tissues still needed.
A Star Is Born (2018)
Another remake not so different 40 something years later!
While I liked Gaga and Cooper, the chemistry was not like Mason and Garland in that version. I have seen the other 3 prior and while they all had something to say this was a little long, and quite clearly some scenes straight out of that and 76' version. I agree with the one review, that 1954 was great, this was good! That film was heartbreaking to watch and acting deserved Oscars and the singing and songs phenomenal in the 1954 version. If Garland and Mason did not win, no way should they in this version. I did not get the intimate feeling between them and career nurturing for her
as I did in older version. But hey Hollywood loves a remake, no matter how many times! But 1976 version, Evergreen won for song. I think I will watch the Garland version again now. Hey that's Entertainment!!
