A STAR IS BORN
August 19, 2018  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 11:45 p.m. ET

 

Last Friday, TCM’s “Summer Under the Stars” saluted Barbra Streisand, presenting a day and night of movies featuring the luminous and singular musical talent and movie star. One of those films was 1976’s A Star is Born, in which she played a rising musical star tumultuously paired with a falling star, played by Kris Kristofferson. Today’s featured star is another musical and film legend, Judy Garland – and tonight’s lineup features, at 11:45 p.m. ET, an earlier version of that same story and film: the 1954 edition of A Star Is Born, starring Garland and James Mason (pictured).
