LadyWatch with Ryan & Jason

Comedy


Ryan and Jason celebrate 81 years of "A STAR IS BORN" with a special retrospective examining every aspect of the 1937, 1954, 1976, and 2018 versions of the classic Cinderella melodrama. From the murky origins of its inspiration, to why Hollywood is drawn to these self-reflective themes of fame and addiction again and again, plus what makes each incarnation of this story unique and what binds them together. Ryan and Jason also detail their personal feelings about each version before landing on a LadyWatch ruling of the definitive film in the series, and who between Janet Gaynor, Judy Garland, Barbra Streisand, and Lady Gaga takes the crown as the ultimate titular Star!
