Despite entreaties from both her daughter, Gretchen, and one-time professional colleague Jim Johannsen, Margaret remains convinced that she can regain her former glory.

This is Bette's best movie ever. I love the drunk driving scene with her oscar. Then running from the police on foot.

Not the best form Bette but she still added power and emotion. The story was OK but it should have used more of its tragic aspects to allow Bette to shine more.

What's interesting about this movie is that it was first offered to Joan Crawford who turned it down flat. At the same time, "Sudden Fear" was presented to Davis, who didn't like the script. Davis also turned down "Come Back, Little Sheba". Well, guess what? Davis accepted "The Star", Joan accepted "Sudden Fear" and Shirley Booth got the chance to repeat her stage success in "Sheba" and all three got nominated for the Best Actress Oscar in 1952... 'C'mon Oscar, let's you and me go get drunk'--'The Star' gives Bette Davis a chance to tear up the screen as a one-time Hollywood legend who's forced to watch her youth and career slowly fade away... Bette Davis Takes a Bender!!

Bette Davis received her ninth Oscar nomiation for this formulatic melodrama about a fading, alcoholic movie star, saved by the help of a young actor (Sterling Hayden).

Bette Davis chews the scenery in this flim about a former Hollywood star who has fallen on hard times. Though clearly a role with which Davis could empathize, she manages to suck most of the emotion out of the story with her over-the-top, caricaturesque performance.
