10 Films That Dominated CinemaCon

10. A Star Is Born

Bradley Cooper was on-hand to debut footage from his three-years-in-the-making directorial debut, A Star Is Born. The film co-stars Lady Gaga, who Cooper teased is a 'revelation' in the film and features footage captured from actual live performance stages such as Glastonbury and Coachella.

The film is a remake of the 1937 original, which has already been remade three times for film, but plenty of attendees in the audience felt there was much more to this than a standard Hollywood remake. Many audience members took to Twitter to confide that the footage moved them to tears and to peg it as an early Oscar contender.

While on stage, Cooper said;

“It’s a big swing, this movie, I totally get that. But you can’t control what moves you. You can’t really contrive or manufacture something that moves you, and I’ve always wanted to tell a love story, and this project was around before and it always stayed with me. And to me, music is the most purest way that you can communicate love, because you have to be relaxed.”

Cooper's earnestness shown through in his presentation on-stage and in the footage itself.
