Hollywood, 1927: As silent movie star George Valentin wonders if the arrival of talking pictures will cause him to fade into oblivion, he sparks with Peppy Miller, a young dancer set for a big break.

French director Michel Hazanavicius' black-and-white silent film follows George Valentin (Jean Dujardin), a silent-era film star struggling to make it in the talkies. This witty and visually enthralling homage to early cinema features supporting performances by Malcolm MacDowell, John Goodman and James Cromwell.

Release date-November 23, 2011 (USA)
