The Artist (film)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Artist is a 2011 French romance film directed by Michel Hazanavicius, starring Jean Dujardin and Bérénice Bejo. The story takes place in Hollywood between 1927 and 1931 and focuses on a declining male film star and a rising actress, as silent cinema grows out of fashion and is replaced by the talkies. The film is itself a silent film and in black and white. Dujardin won the Best Actor Award at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival, where the film premiered.
