What Price Hollywood? (1932)

Sassy and ambitious waitress Mary Evans amuses and befriends amiable seldom-sober Hollywood film director Max Carey when he stumbles into her restaurant.

Star is Born-esque melodrama. Very sharp humor writing in the earlier scenes, then some cool expressionistic filmmaking during the climactic sequences. Bennett is quite compelling, Hamilton channels William Powell, Sherman is a cookie cutter romantic lead, and Ratoff presages Michael Lerner in Barton Fink. Always entertaining, surprisingly good throughout.

What Price Hollywood B The inspiration for " A Star Is Born," struck me as being very much like a rough draft of that story, and I don't just mean chonologically. It shows promise, but it's not quite [i]there [/i]yet. There are lots of good ideas, clever direction by George Cukor (who made the best ASIB in 1954 with Judy Garland) and a strong performance from Constance Bennett as the up and coming starlet.Regrettably, the story loses its way when it introduces a deadly dull love interest [i]different [/i]from the man who discovers Bennett, something that was wisely dropped from ASIB. Still, it's an intriguing if flawed curio. The 1937 and especially the 1954 versions are far more satisfying, with the latter being one of the very best musicals ever made.

The template for A Star is Born is a good film on its own. While certain scenes reflect the later films the tenure of this is different and the core relationship between the main characters is not a romantic one but one of friendship. Interesting use of imagery to make statements and set moods is dated but done it a way that makes sense within the context of the picture. Solid but the definitive version is still the Judy Garland 1954 starrer.

George Cukor is one of the big names of Old Hollywood - he directed many genuine classics. This is probably his second great film (after One Hour With You) and is one he later filmed again under a different title: "A Star is Born". What Price Hollywood? is melodrama of the highest kind. An aspiring actress - still only a waitress - catches the eye of a director who she is waiting on - and is soon a celebrated actress, America's Pal. She rides the highs, suffers some lows, and her star soon eclipses the director who found her. Constance Bennett as Mary Evans is superb - I'll admit to not knowing who is she, and she didn't act in much else - and I'm interested to see more of her work on the back of this. Lowell Serman played Carey, the director with great gusto. It has to be said, this film reminded me much of The Artist, the 2012 silent comedy that won Best Picture. Their trajectories are similiar. All in all a very entertaining, comedic drama that is very good indeed.

Before any version of "A Star Is Born" was made, George Cukor directed What Price Hollywood, an inside look at Hollywood and the downfall of a once prominent director. I really love movies about Hollywood, and this is easily one of the best. Lowell Sherman doesn't get enough love in general and he's excellent here. His relationship with Constance Bennet (whose performance is phenomenal) is heartbreaking.
