''The Artist'' is a 2011 French film emulating the style of cinema in the [[TheRoaringTwenties 1920s]], and the UsefulNotes/AcademyAward winner for Best Picture of the year. Written and directed by Michel Hazanavicius and produced by Thomas Langmann, it stars Creator/JeanDujardin as George Valentin, a silent movie star in 1920s Hollywood whose career goes into decline with the Great Depression and the advent of talking pictures. He falls in love with a young ingenue named Peppy Miller, played by Berenice Bejo, whose Hollywood career arc is the exact opposite of Valentin's.
''The Artist'' is unique not just for being shot in black-and-white, and in the old 4:3 AspectRatio, but being an almost completely '''silent film''', possibly the first feature-length SilentMovie to receive wide distribution since Creator/MelBrooks put out ''Film/SilentMovie'' in 1976. It should also be noted that this was one of the first Best Picture Oscar winners in years to be filmed entirely in Hollywood, the first black and white film to win Best Picture since 1993's ''Film/SchindlersList'' (and only the second since 1960's ''Film/TheApartment''), the first film from a non-English-speaking country ever to win Best Picture (but being a silent film, not the first one ''in'' a non-English language; that would have to wait until 2019's ''Film/{{Parasite|2019}}'') and the first silent movie to win Best Picture since the very ''first'' Best Picture winner, ''Film/{{Wings}}'', way back in 1929. It also won four other Oscars, including Best Director for Michel Hazanavicius and Best Actor for Jean Dujardin.
