If you loved A Star Is Born, try Babylon
A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Babylon has roughly 3.3× fewer votes than A Star Is Born — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.
What they share
Theysit in Drama territory. If that's the register that drew you to A Star Is Born, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Babylon is
1920s Hollywood, jazz horns blaring, a champagne glass shatters. Spotlights fade on silent stars, new voices emerge, and the chaos of transition unfolds. Chazelle surveys the decadence with a keen eye.
