It’s often bemoaned that ‘they don’t make ‘em like they used to’. Well they do now! The Artist, Michel Hazanavicius’s nostalgic hymn to Hollywood’s golden era is the first silent movie in 80 years to win an Oscar having already been named Best Film by the New York Film Critics Circle, and the Golden Globes.
It’s 1927, and George Valentin is a movie megastar whose fame is threatened by the advent of talkies. He dismisses the advances of technology as a fad, pigheadedly progressing with directing the film he considers will be his masterpiece. With reverential nods to celebrated Hollywood insider stories such as Singin’ in the Rain and Sunset Boulevard, and to other classics such as Citizen Kane, period details that are lovingly recreated, and perfectly pitched performances, The Artist is a pure delight.
