You Don't Want To Miss It

What an interesting, fun and well done movie. This is for any of you that do not know the story behind the film.

After reading the review by the New York Times there was no way I could tell you about this movie and do it justice. So this is what they had to say.

"Remember the old days, when movies were glorious, magical and mute? Neither do I. But the passing of the silent era from memory into myth is what “The Artist,” Michel Hazanavicius’s dazzling cinematic objet d’art, is all about. This is not a work of film history but rather a generous, touching and slightly daffy expression of unbridled movie love. Though its protagonist mourns the arrival of sound, “The Artist” itself is more interested in celebrating the range and power of a medium that can sparkle, swoon and suffer so beautifully that it doesn’t really need to have anything to say. Strictly speaking Mr. Hazanavicius’s film is not a silent movie. There is a lot of music on the soundtrack and also a few strategic moments of onscreen noise that are both delightfully surprising and wildly illogical. The whole conceit of the picture is spun in willful disregard of the laws governing time, space and sound, an embrace of the preposterous that is perhaps more reminiscent of the spirit of early French cinema than of the old Hollywood where the action takes place". — A. O. Scott

There seem to be a lot of movies showing at this time that I would like to see. There is a great little theater nearby that is very current with their film selections. And, it is nice to get the senior discount. I never thought in my life I would say that! 

Have Fun and go to the movies.
