If you like movies because they are a pleasant distraction then I'm not sure you'll like this movie. If you loves movies because you love movies then you will love this movie.
That sounds familiar. But it's true! Make no mistake, this is a silent movie made in black and white by French people, so it's not exactly palatable to the average theater goer. Well, fuck that guy. He gets enough movies all year long. This one is special. Even with it's runaway success we're unlikely to see a renaissance of silent cinema so you better enjoy this one while you can, which will be damn easy because this film is a wonderfully charming melodramatic tribute to, well, artists I would say.
