STAR! Original Trailer - Julie Andrews

Julie Andrews stars as British stage legend Gertrude Lawrence, a glamorous, flamboyant and charismatic personality - A woman who is both "maddening and infuriating" and "probably the most beautiful and entrancing creature ever to walk onto a stage." Lawrence rises from irrepressible chorus girl in English music halls to become the toast of two continents. Her lifelong friend Noel Coward (Daniel Massey) provides witty commentary as Gertie finds company in a number of suitors, in search of a love to equal that of an audience.

One of my favourite films ever.

Great movie. Too bad it was not as well appreciated in the 60's. Glad to see there are many fans for Julie in this film. Loved her interpretation of the great Gertrude Lawrence!

[@forrestleone1724]

Has to be one of my favorite films

[@stottie92]

Brilliant! Hilarious, sweet and touching. Its a privilege to walk this Earth at the same time as Andrews!

[@reasonrestored9116]

It is too long and needed some key cuts and changes to timelines, focus etc. but it has many wonderful set pieces and the songs are often perfect for Julie who really does them justice.

[@SymphonyBrahms]

Julie was great but the film itself is too long and boring.

[@Schrotter0512]

Oh I love Star, it's such a wonderful movie! Glamourous, touching and still funny!

Are you still around and looking? It was free on KZbin movies as of last week February 2021

[@bronxbearbud272]

Film to audience: Here is a lavish, four hour roadshow tribute to Gertrude Lawrence!" Audience to film: "Who is Gertrude Lawrence?"

[@timlester1867]

The original roadshow was 2 hours 56 minutes. Almost 3 hours. But 4 is quite an exaggeration.

[@stuartlee6622]

The only trouble with the film is that it ended too early with Lady in the Dark. It should have continued until her King and I and death.

[@jools01]

It wasn’t going to be actually a biography it was just going to use Gertrude Lawrence since in the film they make a film about her life up until lady in the dark so they just wanted to do that, if that makes since?

[@BillofRights1951]

Andrews is amazing, forever beloved, and gives 100% in everything she does, but this film, despite some great set pieces ("Jenny") was a crashing bore and ill conceived. American audiences, especially in 1968, had a lot of other things on their minds, and no one recalled or cared that much about Gertrude Lawrence. Plus, Streisand had jusr blazed onto the screen in "Funny Girl" and was the toast of Hollywood, and "Oliver" was big, very well made, offered a dozen indelible performances in an iconic Dickens story, and was a total crowd-pleaser. "Star" as a result, was DOA.

[@spagandtuna]

Eh, it's a chore to get through this. Julie is always game, but it's all just too long and dull.

[@geoffreyfox9801]

The musical numbers are superb. Julie is spectacular in all the musical sequences. However, the movie as a whole is long, very dull, and boring.

[@timlester1867]

Such a shame this movie flopped. It just came along at the wrong time. The mid-to--late sixties were the time of Vietnam and civil rights unrest. Also, the public didn't like seeing Julie as a cursing, drinking, spoiled woman. The memory of "Mary Poppins" and "The Sound of Music" were too fresh. If this film had come along ten or fifteen years later, it may have been better received.

[@hebneh]

A flop - I saw this twice, for some reason, when it was released. I was a fan of musicals but this did not favorably impress me.

[@SymphonyBrahms]

I find it overly long and tedious. I understand why it was a flop.
