Outside a movie premiere, enthusiastic fan Peppy Miller literally bumps
into the swashbuckling hero of the silent film, George Valentin. The
star reacts graciously and Peppy plants a kiss on his cheek as they are
surrounded by photographers. The headlines demand: "Who's That Girl?"
and Peppy is inspired to audition for a dancing bit-part at the studio.
However as Peppy slowly rises through the industry, the introduction of
talking-pictures turns Valentin's world upside-down. Written by

stunning
Jean Dujardin deserved
his Palme D'or for his captivating and wonderful performance. Where to
start...this film is so clever, so beautifully crafted, so mesmerising.
The lost art of the silent film is once again brought to life and that
era is impressively recreated, whether it be the acting style, the sets,
the locations (shot in Hollywood), the shimmering black and white
photography. It is obvious to see that the people behind L'artiste
respected that era of film making and wanted to recreate the magic with
some modern touches ( I won't spoil them) and totally succeeded. I saw
this in Cannes at an 8.30 am press screening and was totally entranced. I
cannot wait to see it again!
