This is by far the greatest movie of the year. I want to be a film maker and I can say that I felt absolutely jealous of the creator of this feature after watching it. The use of sound is magnificent. Jean Dujardin is a fantastic actor. And the story is so well written I cried through out the hole movie. It is a tribute to film in its purest form. When film language began there wasn't any sound and I've always thought image is the most elegant way to tell a story. Soap operas relate on dialogue to tell you what's going on, and that's why I've always thought their story telling is vulgar. This is the opposite side of the spectrum. I believe you should see this film even if you think that a "silent" and black and white film isn't interesting. You won't be disappointed. It's funny, engaging, deep, meaningful and subtle.
