Overview
Hollywood, 1927: As silent movie star George Valentin wonders if the arrival of talking pictures will cause him to fade into oblivion, he sparks with Peppy Miller, a young dancer set for a big break.
In his review of this film Roger Ebert said that people held a grudge toward this movie because it is silent and it was filmed in black and white. He gave it 4 stars. I’ll accuse Ebert of liking this film too much because it was in black and white and silent. All in all, it was just ‘ok’. Not nearly worth the credit it got.
