Nominated for 10 Oscars including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Best Supporting Actress! Winner, Golden Globe Best Picture! Top Ten List of Over 200 Movie Critics! 97% at Rotten Tomatoes!
We are thrilled to bring to the State Theatre the movie phenomenon of the year, an inventive, delightful, comedic, zesty romance set during the twilight of Hollywood’s silent era and filmed on location at numerous classic Hollywood locations. “The Artist” is a surefire crowdpleaser that tells the story of the entertwined destinies of a charismatic movie superstar confronting the new world of talking pictures, and a rising ingénue on her way to the top. Also starring John Goodman and James Cromwell, with an ensemble cast that hasn’t been matched in ages, this great film is “a rocket to the moon fueled by unadulterated joy and pure imagination” (Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune). “Everyone” is saying it will win Best Picture at the Oscars on February 26 — what do you think?
