Directors: Michel Hazanavicius
If you want to evoke yourself with the charms of old Hollywood, then “The Artist” is the best movie to watch.
This movie was released recently and won the Oscar 2012 for Best Picture.
The set is based on the time period of 1920s when the movie industry
cast off black-and-white silent films. The spirit of the past is brought
back to audience by writer/director Michel Hazanavicius through the
movie.
The
center point of the movie is George Valentin (Jean Dujardin)’s story.
He was truly the top movie star of the world during the time of silent
movies. Nobody was around him to compete, and his movies were some of
the biggest hits in Hollywood. He was all the time surrounded and
praised by fans and media for his every work. Besides, there was a young
actress named Peppy Miller (Berenice Bejo), who was struggling to
become someone in the Hollywood. Coincidentally, they both met each
other.
After
some time their career reverse. The talkies started and the new era
began. Peppy Miller started acting and became very famous through
talkies. Meanwhile, people lost their appetite towards the silent
movies, as well as George Valentine.
Through
the movie, you will see the deepest love and romance without focusing
on only sex. Ups and downs of life are so dramatic where you fear to
imagine yourself.
