A modern old film

Rating: 9/10 (26 October 2018)

The Artist is a 2011 comedy-drama film, written and directed by Michel Hazanavicius. The film stars Jean Dujardin in the role of George Valentin and Bérénice Bejo in the role of Peppy Miller. The story takes place between 1927 and 1932, period in which silent films were replaced by the "talkies"
The way this passage is told, following the life of a silent movie actor, allows us to understand how important all this is and how much innovation can lead to different consequences.
I think some scenes are brilliant , like the dream one, which allow you to feel the torment experienced by the protagonist, suddenly excluded from the film scene.
It absolutely deserved the various awards received, first on all the Academy Award for best film.
It is an excellent film that can entertain both the general public and movie lovers: a real tribute to the cinema, to Hollywood and its history.
