The Artist

I went to watch this today. I really enjoyed it. It does feel quite French in places, but it was beautifully shot, and made a nice change from explosions and juddering cameras. And the dog really is excellent.

I really want to see this but there does not seem to be many cinemas hosting

I'm lucky that we have a little independent cinema here in Bath (Called "The Little Theatre", as it happens), which has been open since the 1920s and is brilliant. Watching the cinema with a cup of tea is great.

Saw this last week, really enjoyed - quite comic to start with but does turn a (little) darker as it goes on. Dog was brilliant as was whole cast, I want to grow a matinee idol 'tache now!

Worth noting that at least one of the small "indy" cinemas are showing the film but not until later this month (20th as our local Picturehouse cinema).

There is one in Belper that we have been to with other Midlanders which is like that. Much nicer than the chains aren't they?

Their web site is flipping awful though!

Went to see this at local Picturehouse in Uckfield. Thought it was a lovely film and the acting was exceleent. I was so impressed, I persuaded the wife to come and see it. She thought bits of it were Ok but got a bit bored with it. Thought George Valentin was too self-centered and a bit of a wimp once his career came to an end. On second viewing, I thought it a bit overlong, but still enjoyed the whole idea.

Heard on the radio the other day that when it was shown in Liverpool, a load of people demanded their money back as they hadn't been told it was silent.
