Poe P Apr 10, 2019 A 2011 silent black & white film with French actors at the helm ... Okay, so that may not be the best way to sell a movie to the masses. However, this is an exception that I feel everyone should see and go into with a clean slate. It was nominated for 11 Academy Awards (of which it won five). It's as close to a modern day classic as you can get; it tells the story of films' transition from the silent era to "talkies" and the downfall of some of films greatest silent actors because of it (in the early days of film, it didn't matter what you sounded like or if you could deliver a line. It was all about your presence on screen. With the advent of "talkies" that all changed). If you like the idea of a movie about movies, then I would suggest the following as other options for you as well: The Purple Rose of Cairo, Cinema Paradiso, Peeping Tom, Sunset Blvd., Man with a Movie Camera, The Player, Singin' in the Rain, Ed Wood.

Anakin W Mar 12, 2019 There's a reason movie studios switched to "Talkies" from silent films. THEY ARE MORE FUN TO WATCH! Why go back to the dark ages for the sake of being quaint and retro? I found the lack of sound in The Artist incredibly annoying and the movie itself quite tedious. Rating: F See more

Feb 25, 2019 One of the worst movies I had seen in my entire líder

Hagrid R Feb 25, 2019 I watched this again on TV and, although it was a little diminished on the small screen, its charm and originality still shone through. A classic, and more deserving of its Oscar than all the winners that followed. See more

Rey P Dec 16, 2018 Meh, not as impressed as most people. Not my style.

Harry L Dec 5, 2018 Most obvious and deserving Best Picture winner of a generation.
