A Star is Born Edit

A few days becomes a few years.

A few months ago and

About me, about where I've come from.

Actually, for my husband to love me.

Actually, when I was in my 20's and 30's,

Ah, ha, ha, ha!

Ain't nothing to be afraid of, bro.

Alec in 5 seconds.

Alec in 20.

All any artist can offer the world

All Dad ever did for you

All over the goddamn world.

All right, but... Oh, my God!

All right, girl, please come back soon.

All right, I got an idea for the end.

All right, I might've taken too much.

All right, let's get ready. 1, 2, 3, 4.

All right, listen to me. Here's what we're gonna do.

All right, stand by, guys.

All right.

All right.

All right. There we go.

All right. What happened?

All you do is you just sing.

All you got is you, and what you wanna say to people,

All you gotta do is trust me.

All you ladies kill it tonight, okay?

Ally, you just go inside, okay?

Ally!

Ally! Ally! Ally! Ally!

Ally.

Always remember us this way.

Amazing. Gonna get to see you perform tonight,

And all I can say is...

And already pissing yourself a swan song.

And bad beat is Wario Peito.

And because of him, I am.

And come help me close this bar, please?

And do that hand.

And everybody else, all these other guys

And have me make another one.

And he didn't even notice.

And he got a scholarship

And he loves "Look What I've Found."

And he really believes in me.

And he said that he has this wonderful studio

And he was putting peas around my hand to fix my hand.

And he's sittin' there, and he's looking at me.

And I didn't wanna forget it.

And I need to be here with everybody else.

And I put it in here, and I thought...

And I used to love to just put my whole head in there.

And I was in my own world.

And I'd just like her to sing it.

And I'll sing with him for life. Right, baby?

And I'm just gonna be here all summer.

And it just kind of filled me up.

And it soothed me.

And it's about an hour forty

And it's been a long, long time

And it's doing so well,

And it's fucking great.

And it's goin' real good.

And it's like they're gonna rub off on you.

And maybe that could work, like as a chorus or something.

And my husband, Jackson.

And now you're not.

And play for all your Arizonian fans?

And she wrote a great song,

And she's gonna sing an original song.

And that I won't make it.

And that's it, yeah. No, but keep that on there, hold on.

And the history, I don't know.

And the nominees are...

And the question to you is, "What do you want?"

And the way to say it so people listen to it,

And then he was singing, and I was singing.

And then I wanna start recording.

And then the tempo was too fast.

And then you forgot where you were goin' in the first place.

And then you realize, you don't really

And then your dad...

And there's all these fucking men in there,

And these amazing producers he wants to bring in

And they are listening right now,

And they wanna keep with the momentum

And they were so excited

And they're just staring at you,

And they're not gonna be listening forever.

And tried to do the deed.

And trying to hold it together.

And unless you get out there

And we can just get fucking drunk

And we have different mothers, so...

And we remember the homework assignment,

And we'll come in in a minute?

And we'll just wrap it up.

And we're gonna get something set up.

And whatever you want is okay.

And when that happens,

And with your help, maybe I can.

And y'all know her very well because she used to work here

And you don't apologize,

And you fucking know it.

And you have to trust me, okay?

And you know what you're doing is

And you know why? 'Cause you're too worried about what

And you try to do it, you'll never know.

And you'd be right there with him if he was still alive,

And you're not. It's not magic, Dad.

Another shot of steroids is better safe than sorry.

Anything for her.

Anything you wanna tell us?

Anyway, if you wanna come, I thought

Are some fabulous, French live vocals.

Are we doing this?

Are you kidding?

Are you okay?

Are you okay?

Are you showing me your nose right now?

Aren't you excited to be home

Arizona.

As a matter of fact, a lot of people thought I was

As a server. But tonight, the only thing she's serving

As you were when I met you.

At first I got angry.

Aww!

Baby girl, you know what I'm saying?

Baby, listen, we just wanted to say congratulations.

Baby... We won!

Back from the dead.

Ball, change. Down.

Barely finding our way through it.

Be careful, she'll hit you.

Be great, why don't you put some on,

Beautiful, you wrote this with him?

Because I gotta send it to her

Because I'm gonna show her that you look

Because there is a spot on that stage for you.

Because you go into these rooms,

Been working for Willie.

Before I even went across the pond.

Before that's pushed aside again for the real thing.

Behind the piano and onto the stage.

Bet you fucking everybody in this bar is talented

Better than Sinatra.

Bitch, Jackson Maine!

Bobby told me.

Bobby'll take you there.

Both verses.

Bought the ranch, though, I grew up on,

Bring the drinks on out!

Bryan, I'll be back. I promise.

Bunch of others too.

But don't worry, I won't tell anybody.

But Frank, he'd come on stage with the blue eyes,

But I don't know. I don't know who was raising who.

But I gotta take a picture of you

But I gotta work. I can't go.

But I had this idea on the bike

But I made sure that they tell me where you're sitting,

But I'm not very good at keeping secrets.

But it got bad when we were together.

But it's just kind of never

But look, we do this every Friday night.

But maybe you could just stick with it.

But now he's got his driver following me around.

But the point is, you got nominated, and it's great.

But then something changed.

But they've always loved my voice.

But to put out a whole record,

But yeah, like I said, it's a real honor.

But you definitely look like a star.

By all these other people.

Bye, honey.

Bye.

Call me your fucking boyfriend.

Call me.

Can I buy you a drink?

Can I get a gin on the rocks with a twist, please?

Can I tell you a secret?

Can I try to take it off?

Can I watch?

Can it be fixed?

Can we get this man anything he wants, please?

Can you do that? Yeah. Did you get it?

Can you get somebody else to do it for me?

Can you leave the man alone, please?

Cheers. Where's that joint?

Christ!

Clear it out! Hello, goodbye, Roger.

Come here, Charlie.

Come here.

Come on this way.

Come on, baby. Sit down, sit down, sit down.

Come on, bro. Get up.

Come on, Bryan! She's performing tonight!

Come on, cowboy.

Come on, let's go back out and do it.

Come on.

Congrats, man.

Could sing Sinatra under the table.

Dad had a midlife crisis, I think.

Dad let me in.

Dad, I gotta go to work.

Damn it! Watch his fucking head.

Dancers?

Did he cry?

Did you have a good trip?

Did you just win?

Did you see you're up there?

Didn't think we'd do it so soon, man.

Do you do that often?

Do you know what Paul Anka actually said to him?

Do you take him... Do you take him?

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Do you write songs or anything?

Does anyone want some more mac and cheese?

Does he know you sing at all? Did he hear anything from you?

Does this mic work?

Don't make me have to come get you tonight.

Don't not use them and then miss a couple of steps, okay?

Don't you fucking do this to my daughter.

Don't you understand what I'm trying to tell you?

Donte, you got a rag, honey? Thank you.

Down!

Drug addict.

Ear plugs. You'll need these, it's loud up there.

Eat your dinner. Eat your food.

Essentially 12 notes between any octave.

Everybody, Grammy nominated artist.

Everybody, we're gonna bring out Ally

Everything all right? The trip was fine?

Everything good? You good?

Everything's gonna remain the same, okay?

Everything's gonna remain the same.

Excuse me one second.

Excuse me, one sec.

Excuse me, papo!

Excuse me!

Find somebody else.

Fine.

First one to hit the bed.

Float out at sea, and then one day, you find a port.

For a fucking half an hour.

For this family on a pecan ranch.

Forever.

Frank? Frank Sinatra?

French toast is gonna come out.

From your house all the way to work?

Fuck all those people who ever said anything.

Fuck if you shed a tear for that piece of shit

Fuck! God!

Fuck.

Fucking dancers.

Fucking men!

Funny to run into you

Gave it to my brother.

Get off!

Get out!

Get the fuck out of here.

Get the fuck out.

Get to it.

Get to see you sing.

Give a shit about where you was going

Give it up for my husband, Jackson.

Give me a sharpie!

Giving me a home.

Glad you're here.

Go and have some fruit.

Go home, pal.

Go sit back there.

Go, go, go.

Going out with a bang at the Forum.

Going over and over it, over it in my head.

Good concert, man! Good concert.

Good evening.

Good, where's your journal?

Good.

Got hooked up with some manager guy, wants to...

Gotta wrap something up with it. Find it.

Great.

Guys, guys, guys. This way. Sorry, wrong way.

Had a big cut on my fucking forehead.

Have a good one.

Have a sizable investment on this thing here.

Have fun!

Have you been drinking? Are you fucked up right now?

He already signed your tits, honey. Say, "No, sir."

He becomes Frank Sinatra.

He called. He said that

He didn't even fucking notice.

He died when I was 13,

He does this all the time.

He does. He's got your eyelashes. Hey, bud!

He had more talent in his fucking finger

He has a way of doing that.

He just kept saying,

He just said, "Take whatever you want."

He just sort of sits by the door like this.

He loved how you see them.

He said he thought Interscope Records

He was big into the blues, so...

He washed away in a fucking storm.

He won't tell me.

He wrote a song for me.

He, uh...

He's a drunk! You know all about drunks.

He's a fucking old man, okay.

He's fine.

He's never brought a girl onstage before.

He's not here?

He's not here.

He's out.

He's really looking forward to this.

He's so excited that you're here.

He's so inside of his art in a way he has never been.

He's so talented.

He's talking to the wrong guys.

Hello, I'm Ally Maine.

Hello, Nicki. How you doin', baby?

Here we go, Jack. You want me to be your dad?

Here we go, ready? Song one.

Here we go. Taking out the trash. Wipe your mouth.

Here we go. That looks like a fucking bar.

Here we go. Yeah, put that on there.

Here you go.

Here, let me just try this.

Hey, Ally, girl!

Hey, boys.

Hey, Bryan, I'm out.

Hey, buddy.

Hey, great! Let's do this.

Hey, hey!

Hey, hey. Take it in.

Hey, how you doin'? Hey.

Hey, I got a gig. You wanna come?

Hey, I know that we're not supposed to do this.

Hey, is this a drag bar?

Hey, Jack, that's an incredible collection of vinyl

Hey, Jack.

Hey, Jack. Killed it.

Hey, Jack. No, no.

Hey, look at everybody. How are you?

Hey, sorry. Were you waiting long?

Hey, thanks for taking care of my girl when I was gone.

Hey, there he is!

Hey, where's the wedges? Can't fucking hear with the...

Hey, you know, uh... When I, um...

Hey! Do you got those pills in your pocket?

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Hi, Ally. I'm Gail.

Hi, it's nice to see you.

Hi!

Hi!

Hi. You okay?

His grave isn't there anymore.

Hit! Down, up! High! Swing it!

Hmm?

Hold the music!

Holy shit.

Hot! Ball, change.

How are you? It was so good.

How can any of these people feel like they knew him?

How did you get in here?

How do they know how many people looked at it?

How do you do that?

How great.

How long have you been here now?

How many times did you carry my piano up the stairs?

How many times did you sit there while I wrote a song?

How old is he now?

How old were you then?

How the fuck do they do that?

How the hell do you deal with that all the time?

How this shit works?

How to play the guitar. It's fine, I'll do it.

How was the show?

How you doin'?

How'd your show go?

How's Charlie?

How's your kid?

Huh?

I almost didn't wake you.

I always wanted to be a singer on a big stage,

I am who I am, and I'm worried about Jack.

I apologize for disrespecting your property...

I bought that for you.

I brought something.

I can stay, if you want.

I can't believe he did it.

I can't believe I'm holding one of these.

I can't believe it.

I can't believe this. What am I doing? Okay, sure.

I can't leave, so I'll be in my car

I can't wake him up. He's drunk.

I could get used to this shit.

I could've had maybe a hit song

I cut the dancers.

I did an arrangement, it was kind of not so great,

I did the right thing.

I didn't even realize I liked it so much

I didn't know what he was going to do.

I didn't think he was gonna "do it" do it.

I do? Watch... It's gone.

I do.

I do.

I don't care, just look at me while you do it.

I don't even know what meal it is.

I don't even know what that fucking means.

I don't feel this way about everybody.

I don't have the same disease

I don't know about all of that,

I don't know if you know anything

I don't know what the fuck I was thinking.

I don't know what the hell's going on.

I don't know what you have.

I don't know what you're talking about.

I don't know where my mom is.

I don't know who the hell I think I am.

I don't know why.

I don't know, but...

I don't know, it just sort of fell out of me,

I don't know, wake him up.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know. He told me he was looking for some pliers.

I don't know... You float out...

I don't like it, but I understand it.

I don't need approval.

I don't really come back here.

I don't sing my own songs.

I don't think you could handle it.

I don't wanna be fucking blond.

I don't wanna go home.

I don't want her anywhere near you.

I don't want you to choke, baby. Sit up!

I don't... I don't have...

I feel like we've done this before.

I fucked that fucking song up so bad.

I fucking listened to it over and over in the fucking...

I got you. You're doing great.

I gotta change, and I got paint in my hair.

I gotta go to work later. I gotta go to bed.

I gotta say, it's easier without you.

I gotta talk to Jack.

I guess I felt like,

I guess I just thought... You know, it's like...

I guess, and onto this page.

I have 15 seconds.

I have figured out what I think is

I have hearing aids on, as you...

I have some good news.

I have to get back to rehearsal...

I have to think if I can remember it. Uh...

I haven't been able to find him. I called him three times.

I haven't even thought about drinking or anything else.

I haven't heard from him all night.

I haven't heard from him.

I hear that song, and I just wanna turn it the fuck off.

I just don't feel comfortable.

I just keep

I just wanna know if she's on her way or not, that's all.

I just want you to be happy.

I just wanted to take another look at you.

I just wanted to take another look at you.

I just was wondering, that's all,

I know it's your house. But you smoke too.

I know that we're not supposed to come and bother you.

I know who you are.

I know, but I...

I know, but...

I know, do you wanna play? Okay, let's play.

I know, I just don't wanna lose

I like where I'm at.

I look like a pirate.

I love you too.

I make it out of tape.

I mean, it was so nice talking to him,

I need to stick with you.

I promise you, she's really singing.

I put it around the ceiling fan

I put my Jackson titties on!

I quit.

I really appreciate that, but, uh...

I said you haven't been drinking. I can tell.

I said, get out!

I should put her down somewhere.

I should've never told you that. I don't know.

I showed you mine, you show me yours. Come on.

I started out singing with this beautiful man,

I started puttin' it down to paper

I started writing this song the other day,

I swear to God, he looked at me

I think I got an idea that might help out, all right?

I think I might have said some things...

I think I'm getting through a little bit. I can see it.

I think if we had a better band name,

I think if you're playing it and singing it...

I think it's because you need your piano.

I think it's pretty fucking good.

I think it's time we reconsider

I think it's... They call it an algorithm, or...

I think that's how it goes, something like that.

I think we can find something around here.

I think we're managing pretty good.

I think you have it all. I do.

I think you might be a songwriter.

I think.

I thought he was supposed to be singing.

I thought maybe I set it in the wrong key,

I thought maybe you'd find it

I thought of a million things to say to you on the plane

I thought that might be you.

I told you, but you were fucking drunk.

I told you, I can't wear those things.

I understand what you said.

I wanna cut the guitar strings, not too crazy.

I wanna know

I wanna know how you hear this.

I want my friends to look at you.

I was born with this thing in my ear, couldn't hear.

I was just shy of 13.

I was like a crooner.

I was more mad about that than it not working.

I was not a good look for you, that's for sure.

I was playing on this upright

I was there, I fucking...

I was trying to go to the men's room,

I wasn't drunk the whole time we were together.

I wasn't sure...

I will find him.

I will find Jack, okay?

I wish it was bigger up there.

I won't come and find you.

I won't do this again.

I wondered, without the booze,

I would call you a stalker.

I wouldn't say I was hiding it. I just...

I...

I'd like to sing it for him tonight.

I'd love to see what that looks like.

I'll be right back, okay? Just give me one second.

I'll call my cousin right now.

I'll go meet you there.

I'll have a car come get you.

I'll let you go early, but you gotta finish your job.

I'll never forgive myself.

I'll only do it because you already performed.

I'll see you soon, okay?

I'll stay here.

I'll wait for you.

I'm coming in.

I'm doin' all right if I can get a fucking drink.

I'm doing it right now.

I'm done being your fucking errand boy.

I'm fine, honestly. I'm okay. This is so stupid.

I'm fine.

I'm gonna be thinking about your nose for a very long

I'm gonna bring you guys to the side stage.

I'm gonna sing it either way, so...

I'm gonna wake up in a minute.

I'm grateful to...

I'm happy, Dad.

I'm here watching the show, watching you guys.

I'm in a cop bar, with Jackson Maine. It's, like...

I'm in that position, to put you wherever you want to be.

I'm in town for a gig.

I'm Jack. I'm an alcoholic.

I'm just gonna have them fly one in, and we'll try it there

I'm just saying, she's got no space.

I'm just telling you that.

I'm just trying to figure it out, that's all.

I'm just wondering if... I just...

I'm never getting on that thing with you when you've been drinking.

I'm not gonna go to Europe.

I'm not gonna let you lose that piece.

I'm not gonna let you lose that piece.

I'm out a couple.

I'm proud of him.

I'm Rez Gavron.

I'm so blessed to be in the company

I'm so happy for you.

I'm sorry I did that.

I'm sorry, but will I sing in the beginning?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I had to.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry I'm late.

I'm sure it was just a bit much for him, that's all.

I'm thinking platinum, or...

I'm what?

I'm working on that.

I'm, uh...

I've made peace with it, though.

I've never sang with a track before.

I've watched it 200 times myself.

If I haven't thanked you yet, just...

If I was no good, why'd you steal my fucking voice?

If it wasn't for my nose.

If there's one reason we're supposed to be here,

If we put the inner moles in, we can actually use those

If you don't dig deep in your fucking soul,

If you don't take them off.

If you would want to come home.

In a bar I was in the other night.

In my mind, I made it to the door.

In one thing or another, but having something to say

In that bus driver wig, girl.

In the music industry has told me

In the real thing. In the real thing.

In the whole goddamn state.

Including "Best New Artist."

Is he here?

Is how they see those 12 notes.

Is it gettin' worse?

Is she really singing, though,

Is that me?

Is that what I'm doing?

Is that what you were doing when you left the table?

Is that your real eyebrow?

Is there a reason why you're not up there?

Is there any more?

Is this the bathroom? Where's the fucking...

Isn't it cute? Little arts and crafts.

Isn't that great?

Isn't that the girl who sang?

It actually has been done before.

It doesn't do you any justice, I'll tell you that.

It doesn't even look like me.

It happened when I was younger, I used to...

It isn't your fault.

It just isn't.

It made me happy, man.

It means clean your shit up. You're fucking messy.

It was fucking awesome.

It was great.

It was real great, and then

It was so wrong.

It was summer, 2004.

It wasn't a stupid thing I just did?

It what? It has a magical quality?

It'd be great! Okay, you're coming

It's a good thing we met.

It's already gotten warm, hasn't it?

It's an honor, really. I get to be one of the gay girls.

It's BYOB around here.

It's early for me. It's late for you.

It's embarrassing.

It's incredible what they do.

It's like a beat.

It's like the hot air

It's not always the best singers that make it.

It's not far.

It's not funny. Jack, don't fuck around.

It's not really all right, though.

It's not your fault. It's a disease.

It's okay, thanks.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay. I mean, it's fine.

It's okay. It's not your fault.

It's pretty good.

It's really amazing what you're doing.

It's Saturday. Nobody's gonna be in there.

It's so good to see you.

It's so sweet.

It's the morning.

It's the only way we can manage what you still got.

It's the same story.

It's time to fucking get on.

It's to say something so people wanna hear it.

It's Wolfie's birthday, come on!

It's you I idolized. It wasn't Dad.

Jack Maine!

Jack sent me to pick you up and take you to the gig.

Jack should come out on tour with me.

Jack talked about how music is

Jack tells me you wrote the song.

Jack, he's as old now

Jack, hey.

Jack, I'm sorry.

Jack, you okay?

Jack?

Jack?

Jack?

Jack?

Jack.

Jack.

Jack.

Jack...

Jack's okay?

Jackson Maine!

Jackson! No!

Just 127 acres of nuts, Navajo, and nowhere to go.

Just a bunch of nobodies.

Just by staying married to you, she looks like a joke.

Just come play a little song for me.

Just doing it, bro.

Just how I acted.

Just know that we're going into battle.

Just one sec, sorry. Just be a second, yeah.

Just put a billboard of your fucking nose up there.

Just stay right here. Go sit back there.

Just the nose? That's so ridiculous.

Just try to find some...

Knocked up the family's daughter.

Ladies, make sure you've turned in your music already.

Lay on that couch right now! I'm gonna take my shoes off.

Let a girl sing at one of these shows,

Let me just touch it for a second.

Let me know how it goes, baby.

Let me see what I can... All right.

Let's anoint this. Let's do it today.

Let's be honest, we both know it's only a matter of time

Let's go.

Let's go. You wanna be my drinking buddy?

Like I was special or something,

Like magic, now you're famous.

Listen to me.

Listen to what you just said.

Listen, if I just don't say this,

Listen, what happened with the dancers there?

Listen.

Listen.

Listening to your record, going,

Look at that.

Look at you, you don't even know where you're walking.

Look there, she's doing languages now.

Look, a guy like that invites you to a show...

Look, talent comes everywhere. Everybody's talented.

Look, we've been on that other side before.

Look.

Lord, the man is here for Ally. Not for you, sister.

Made his way to Arizona, started working

Makeup.

Maybe I just fucking failed you.

Maybe she's a way out.

Maybe that'll help her out.

Me?
