The Artist (2011)


Finally! A thoroughly enjoyable movie-going experience! The Artist is a graceful tribute to the silent movie era, and playfully incorporates the storytelling paradigm of that time while remaining completely fresh and fun. Dujardin and Bejo are perfect for their roles, with expressions so minute and earnest, capable of eliciting any emotional response from the audience. They were also unbearably charismatic, and I particularly enjoyed Dujardin's character's obvious humanity and weakness. I highly recommend seeing it. It's playing at one of Seattle's most adorable movie theaters: the harvard exit.
