At first, you might think watching silent film is so old school and boring but not this one. In fact, you can't even stop watching. I myself was amazed by the actors who did so well to act and put on a face that makes you stay and watch the next scene after another.
After watching this film, I was reminded of another favorite classic movie of mine, Singing in the Rain. I would say for both films refer to the era where silent films are on the verge of disappearing because talking films are being made available. This Thomas Langman film will make you cry, and laugh, feel sorry and feel good. It does deserve the awards it's got from the Oscars. In this era were living in, The Artist stands out by taking you back in time when movies were silent with some modern twist in it's music scores.
From among the movies that I've ever watched lately "The Artist" is one movie that I have to concentrate on watching from start to finish. It's not the kind of movie that you can just blink an eye on considering it's nature of being a silent film. This is not just any other bad silent film, this is a sophisticated work of art in a film It has a simple story line but it is profound on the message it wants to convey to it's audience, as the actors will make you go through different emotions through their facial expressions and actions..
This is truly a film you just have to watch. See the trailer:
