Listen now
Description
It’s Music To My Eyes…because the mega A Star Is Born anniversary episode with DRAMA podcast hosts Connor and Dylan MacDowell has finally arrived! In the first hour, they focus on the first three versions from 1937, 1954, and 1976, including discussions on the iconic stars, how the stories highlight their talents, the memorable (or not so memorable) show-stopping numbers, and how the films offer snapshots of the zeitgeist of their respective time. Then, they serve Hair Body Face, focusing on the 2018 Bradley Cooper-Lady Gaga version while answering some listener questions about the nominated songs and that frustrating year at the Academy Awards. They also debate if a Broadway production is inevitable and try to recast all of the films based on different casting rumors. Before they run Out Of Time, find out which version they consider to be the definitive version and to whom they award their one Oscars.
