An ad for the TV special promoting A Star is Born.
This was a rare treat back then- a syndicated one-hour special going behind the scenes to the making of the movie. I remember is airing in January of February of 1977. I got to see it twice. While a lived close to San Antonio, the Austin TV channels were also available on UHF (before cable TV was even an option in our town). I remember finding it accidently on the Austin channel first just as it was beginning. Maybe a couple of weeks later, it was shown in the San Antonio market.
It's a great special. Too bad they didn't include it as a bonus feature on DVD. Maybe they are waiting for the Blu-Ray release.
