Where is Lady Gaga'sA star is born character, Ally, live in the movie? This seems like a pretty simple question on paper, but when a movie critic Alison Willmore laid it down to his Twitter Supporters on Monday, Little Monsters realized that the answer was more complicated than it appeared there.
"Agreement: where do Ally and his father live? A STAR IS BORN? Please quote evidence, "Willmore wrote. The answers flocked, with a large cohort claiming that they had assumed that his character was living in New York. Others were stranded in Los Angeles, naming different neighborhoods that they thought they could call Ally. Why this confusion? Good, A star is born leave things pretty ambiguous. In real life, Gaga is an Italian from New York and she projects these vibrations into A star is born. Ally's father is a limousine driver named Lorenzo, played by a native of Brooklyn. Andrew Dice Clay, who speaks in a drawling New York voice and constantly talks about Frank Sinatra. Lorenzo's ubiquitous friends, who always seem to hang out at Ally and his father, have the same energy, Noo Yawk.
However! Bradley Cooper Jackson Maine, country rock star, first meets Ally in a bar where he stops while he comes home from a West Coast music festival, then takes her back to she indicating that she actually lives in Los Angeles (or in a California locality). But! If Ally lives in Los Angeles, why did Jackson then put her in a private jet to see him play in what appears to be Greek theater, which is also in the.? Or is the Greek supposed to double as an imaginary place that exists only in the world of the film?
Questions, questions – and the film never answers them explicitly. There are some useful tips here and there; For example, the supermarket where Ally and Jackson are singing at the beginning of the film is a L.A point easily identifiable. It is also known that Cooper has toured concert scenes at festivals such as Coachella and Stagecoach, implying that these scenes are also happening at these locations in the film itself. And, according to the Writers Guild Foundation, who responded to Willmore's tweet, the original sketch of Cooper's script, co-authored by Eric Roth and Will Fetters, says that Ally's father lives "somewhere in the bottom of the San Fernando Valley".
To clarify things, Vanity Fair contacted a representative of Warner Bros. who was delighted with the thread inspired by Willmore's message. By the studio itself, Ally and his father live absolutely in Los Angeles. Specifically, they live on Kensington Road in the Angelino Heights / Echo Park area. The house has been selected by the decorator Karen Murphy, who is not from LA and has spent time moving around the city to find an area with the right feel. According to the production notes of the film, here is how she settled on the house that finally made the cut:
She discovered a house on Kensington Road in Angelino Heights / Echo
Park area, which has become the house where Ally lives with his father, a
limo driver who operates his home business. "It was necessary
feel like a family lived there but not be a mansion, and I liked the
houses in this region. It's high, it overlooks downtown Los Angeles,
which gives him an interesting perspective of the street, and we were
will also use the outside so we can see a view. "
As for the wooded house of Jackson, which seems very anti-L.A. Murphy said that she wanted to avoid the typical celebrity mansion nestled in an enviable neighborhood. "He had roots in Arizona, he's a very earthy guy, his music is earthy. . . I just wanted to find a place that resembles him without thinking of a scale or a fancy address, but in an isolated place where he could write and make beautiful music. I think he basically lived alone for a long time and that he would need a warm and centered place, of this type whose life is a little false.
Now, as for a detail chronology of the movie – like the time spent by Ally and Jack together, the time that Ally is working on his album and the time it takes for his pop career to freeze – it guesses whoever it is.
