Danilo Castro

It isn’t easy to get modern audiences to engage with a film that looks like it was made a century prior. Yet, that’s precisely what director Michel Hazanavicius manages to do.

The Artist, as cute and charming as it was when it came out, falls into the severely niche category a decade later.

It’s the opposite of everything that sells at the box office today, and it’s a pure delight from start to finish.

It is an appreciation of silent cinema from a director who quite deftly incorporates the flavor of silent moviemaking, with its physically expressive acting, longer shots, and more patient editing rhythms, with a more modern sensibility...

Likable, visually captivating, and not without ingenuity even though it has a hard time transcending the clichés on which it's built. [Full review in Spanish]
