3456 movie 6387 does not need to 9781 about her drinking habits - everyone knows she drinks whiskey a 1212 .
In the above text the bold-font words (w1,w2,w3,w4) are represented by the 9 non-zero digits - each digit for a certain letter.
Now solve the alphametics if:
W3+W1=W4
W3-W1=W2 .

and find the title of this puzzle.

At the queue level (and I don't have my documentation) I believed that I had the words THIS, STAR, BRAG and GOGO with one digit not allowing that to occur if the equations were to be true.

Those words do not allow me to arrive at an understandable title.

Going back from the title I can only arrive at one English word "STAR".

Advice would be welcomed.
