The Star Maker

While distinctly American and set in the modern world, La La Land's homage to classic Hollywood and its exploration of dreams and ambition should resonate with fans of The Star Maker's themes of stardom and aspiration.

Although more renowned for its unique blend of humor and tragedy during the Holocaust, Life Is Beautiful similarly captures the Italian spirit and the power of storytelling, making it a compelling watch for fans of The Star Maker.

The Artist is a love letter to the silent film era, exploring similar themes of fame, cinema's history, and the relationship between the audience and the screen as The Star Maker.
