Warner Bros.’ decision to submit “A Star Is Born” in drama instead of comedy/musical at the Golden Globes has many scratching their heads and asking — to borrow one of Ally’s (Lady Gaga) songs — “Why Did You Do That?” Well, we kind of know why they did it, but what is the “correct” placement for this film? The Hollywood Foreign Press Association can still overrule the submission, but if you were making the call, where would you put “A Star Is Born”?
Even before we saw the first frame of the trailer for “A Star Is Born,” everyone assumed it would go into comedy/musical at the Globes, which is where the previous two versions competed and cashed in. The 1954 version won acting honors for Judy Garland and James Mason, while the 1976 rock remake won five Globes, including Best Comedy/Musical Picture and acting awards for Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
