A Star is Born end

Among the old classic Hollywood movies, this is probably the best. It was filmed from October to December 1936 with a budget exceeding one million US dollars. Janet Gaynor's portrayal in her final words, "I am Mrs Norman maine" is so inspiring that remakes are made in later years including the 1954 Warner Bros Musical remake.
Janet Gaynor portrays a farm girl who makes her way to Hollywood overcoming all obstacles. She marries her favorite cinema star Norman Maine and rise to stardom, only to find that all that glitters is not gold.
This is shown in this clip where her husband Norman Maine becomes burdened with alcoholic problems, followed by deteriorating popularity in the movie industry and finally perished in the Malibu in the Pacific Ocean. Janet Gaynor's poignant presentation in her final words is a landmark in the movie industry.

My favorite movie or all time. Love it.

I love the scenes leading up to him commiting suicide. And how he really made it look like an accident. It's dramatic, but in a really good and not quite as attention-seeking way.

I love this early version. I don't know these actors as "stars" , so I can totally get into the story . They aren't "stars playing other stars". I think I saw this version, first, actually; at a vintage movie theatre.
