THE ARTIST
Written by
Michel Hazanavicius
Silent film, illustrated musically, with some title cards to
indicate the dialogues, with actors whose lips move when they
speak although we never hear their voices. The images are in
black and white, in format 1.33.1 TITLES 1
The letters of the titles come up on a title card typical of
the 1920s. Elegant motifs around the edge of the frame, and,
in the background, there are geometrical shapes reminiscent
of the light beams of a film premi�re. Behind is a stylized
town. The titles end in a fade to black. On black, the date
appears on the screen: 19272 INT. LABORATORY - DAY 2
