Checked this out again, and it doesn't hold up on TV. Another dud Best Picture winner.

Huh. Didn’t see the film (it being made after 1967), but it certainly struck me as something of a "pet rock" fad at the time, and I find your comment interesting.

I have to amend it. The last ten minutes work, but the buildup is way too long -- not an unusual problem these days. Directors have power now and they can fall madly in love with every foot they shoot.

Frank, if you don't see anything else made after 1967, see Benjamin Button. Powerful stuff.

The odd thing about the DVD of The Artist is that the print's so soft. Is that intentional, ya think?

Highly overrated, like most best picture films.
