Will The Artist be this year's big winner?


The Artist is a bit of an outsider compared to all the other movies which participate in the race. Indeed, it is a silent black and white movie. Story about a famous silent movie star who sees his career going away bit-by-bit as the talkies that is to say movies with sound. At the same time, he falls in love with a rising actress.
 
 I have to admit I was a bit dubious before going to watch it. Since I have never watched a silent movie before, I was scared I would get bored. In fact, right from the minute the movie begins, you fall in love with the two characters and you want to know where their story is heading. Classical music is a great movie companion. Plus, it is quite surprising to see Dujardin pull off a silent role as he is usually a comedian.

I would advise you to see it: I promise you won't be disappointed ;)


Favorite Magazine

Today, I'm not going to talk about movies per se but rather a magazine that I like to read on a regular basis especially for their movie reviews.
It is an American magazine called Entertainment Weekly: it deals with many topics such as music, books, etc. However, what I prefer is their cover stories about movies: a few weeks ago, it featured a great one about the upcoming David Fincher movie The Girl with the Dragon Tatoo

 Take a look at the website when you have the time! ;)
