The Artist
'The Artist' is a delicious throwback to the glory days of Hollywood's silent film period. Hollywood 1927. George Valentin (Jean Dujardin) is a silent movie superstar. The advent of the talkies will sound the death knell for his career and see him fall into oblivion. For young extra Peppy Miller (Berenice Bejo), it seems the sky's the limit - major movie stardom awaits. The Artist tells the story of their interlinked destinies. Bustling with energy and inventiveness, The Artist captures the mood of classic Tinseltown perfectly, and in the process, the heart of the viewer.
"The Artist encapsulates everything we go to movies for: action, laughs, tears and a chance to get lost in another world." (Rolling Stone)
