MALTIN</STRONG></FONT></FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>If Michel Hazanavicius’ <EM>'The Artist</EM>' were merely
an homage to silent films, it would be easy to dismiss as an amusing stunt. But
his hand is so sure, his actors so engaging (and engaged), that the movie plays
as well as any other picture made this year—if not better. Leading man Jean
Dujardin, who was named Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival, has charisma to
spare, and his perky leading lady, Bérénice Bejo, is a perfect match. <EM>'The
Artist</EM>' is an utterly charming film that earns its audience’s support the
old-fashioned way. </FONT>
<P></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Hazanavicius and his star have worked together before, on
the James Bond parody <EM>OSS 117</EM> and its sequel, <EM>OSS 117: Lost in
Rio</EM>. If you glance at the trailers for those popular French films online
you’ll see that Dujardin’s stock-in-trade is a cocky attitude and a winning
smile. In <EM>'The Artist</EM>', he is called upon to delve beneath the surface
of that personality, and does so in a way that seems as effortless as his
mile-wide grin. Bejo brings warmth and shading to her performance as a girl who
works her way up the ladder in Hollywood as Dujardin’s star begins to fade with
the coming of talkies. (She patterned her performance after flapper-era Joan
Crawford, while he studied Douglas Fairbanks, Sr.)</FONT></P>

<P><FONT face=Arial>The attention paid to finding authentic Los Angeles
locations and the casting of supporting roles and bit players who seem to fit
the period have all paid off handsomely. Costars John Goodman and James Cromwell
hit just the right notes, and never overplay their parts. The highest compliment
I can pay Hazanavicius is that there were times when I forgot I was watching a
brand-new movie. By LEONARD MALTIN (used with permission)<BR></FONT><FONT

id=cke_pastebin><STRONG>Although he’s inevitably described as “director
Alexander Payne,” it is his writing, usually in collaboration with Jim Taylor,
which helps define the filmmaker’s sensibilities. While he’s not above making
fun of his characters (think of the hapless schoolteacher played by Matthew
Broderick in ‘Election’, or the often-clueless Jack Nicholson in ‘About
Schmidt’) he never trivializes them. There is an unexpectedly funny moment in
‘The Descendants’ in which Clooney, fired up with rage, impulsively runs to a
friend’s house…but because he’s wearing flip-flops, the dramatic impetus for the
scene is somewhat defused by audience laughter at the sheer incongruity of the
moment. That’s Payne in a nutshell. </STRONG></DIV></DIV>

character devoid of that trait. He’s a successful lawyer in Hawaii who, as he
freely admits, has become so consumed by work that he has neglected his wife and
two daughters. Fate intervenes when his wife is injured in a water-skiing
accident that puts her in a coma. Overnight, he is forced to become a full-time
father to his alienated teenage daughter (Shailene Woodley) and her younger
sister, who needs to be sheltered from the dire news about her mom. In the midst
of this, Clooney also has to make a momentous decision about a huge parcel of
virgin land on the island of Kauai that is owned by his large, diverse
family. </STRONG></DIV></DIV>

neatly fit into any pigeonhole. It’s a serious movie that happens to have a

and an encounter between two characters can play out as high drama or be
undercut by humor. That’s one of the qualities that distinguishes all of Payne’s
movies and makes this one so special. (The screenplay was first developed by Nat
Faxon and Jim Rash from a little-known novel by Kaui Hart
Hemmings.)</STRONG></DIV></DIV>

id=cke_pastebin><STRONG>Although he’s inevitably described as “director
Alexander Payne,” it is his writing, usually in collaboration with Jim Taylor,
which helps define the filmmaker’s sensibilities. While he’s not above making
fun of his characters (think of the hapless schoolteacher played by Matthew
Broderick in ‘Election’, or the often-clueless Jack Nicholson in ‘About
Schmidt’) he never trivializes them. There is an unexpectedly funny moment in
‘The Descendants’ in which Clooney, fired up with rage, impulsively runs to a
friend’s house…but because he’s wearing flip-flops, the dramatic impetus for the
scene is somewhat defused by audience laughter at the sheer incongruity of the
moment. That’s Payne in a nutshell. </STRONG></DIV></DIV>

like most of us, and in the face of some extraordinary challenges, he tries to
summon his better self. That’s what I love about ‘The Descendants’: it makes us
reflect about how we conduct our lives, and how we might strive to be
better.</STRONG></DIV></DIV>
