Shownotes
This week, we had an unexpected emergency, and Dana and I had to take a quick break. We will be back to our regular schedule next week, but this is the episode I recorded as a birthday favor for my little sister, Sarah, last year in August during the middle of the pandemic yet. It's a bit of a blast from the past as this was done before we really started to develop a lot of the newer production and editing on the show or some of the new feature parts we've added this season, and so this certainly will sound a lot different than the recent ones we've put out.
Tom and Sarah discuss The Artist (2011): written and directed by Michel Hazanavicius, starring Jean Dejardin, Berenice Bejo, Malcolm McDowell, and John Goodman.
Plot Summary: In the 1920s, actor George Valentin (Jean Dujardin) is a bona fide matinee idol with many adoring fans. While working on his latest film, George finds himself falling in love with an ingenue named Peppy Miller (Bérénice Bejo) and, what's more, it seems Peppy feels the same way. But George is reluctant to cheat on his wife with the beautiful young actress. The growing popularity of sound in movies further separates the potential lovers, as George's career begins to fade while Peppy's star rises.
