Michel Hazanavicius, 2011. B&W. 98 min.
With Bérénice Bejo and Jean Dujardin
Silent with English titles

 

A brilliant homage to 1920s-era Hollywood, The Artist is a black-and-white silent picture made by the young modern French filmmaker, Michel Hazanavicius.

 

A revelation at Cannes, The Artist is already hailed as an Oscar contender.

 

The film explores the relationship between a dashing star (Dujardin, winner of Cannes’ best actor award) whose career is fading with the arrival of talking pictures, and a sparkling young actress (Bejo) whose star is on the rise.
