Aging like fine wine.

Rating: 9/10 (28 November 2018)

I first saw The Artist back when it came out in 2011. I was only 9 then but was still able to enjoy the visuals and how it's a silent film that was made in the 21st century. But after seeing it 7 years later I was very pleased by how good it came out to be. I did not realize that it was about the transition from silent films to "talkies", and how it affects silent film stars. This film also has a lot of connections to other films, in specific Sunset Boulevard, which also deals with the transition from silent films to talkies. The performances in the movie are all full of heart and soul and are very believable, especially Jean Dujardin who plays as the lead character. It's very sad to see the two main actors in this movie to not be in big movies that come out today, but that happens. I just want to recognize the performance by the dog Uggie who plays as the main character's dog, it's one of the best animal performances I've ever seen. But what this has going for it is how it is going to age in the future.
