The Artist

This is not a sneak preview. This film has already released.

A fading film star and a rising new comer cross paths as Kinograph Studios transitions from silent films to the talkies. Who would have thunk in today's era of high tech special effects and motion capture movies that film makers would dare attempt a black-and-white silent film release with an old fashion story line. It's a throwback homage to the golden age of silent films featuring lighting, shadows, nostalgic mood music, and mugging to the camera. The film as a great look and feel with a sense of humor and a very cute and clever dog. This great gimmick is entertaining, but will probably work just once.

Alien gives it 3 "Tears of Love" stars out of 4.
