Best picture of the year? X
September 11 2012
Maybe it's me, but I thought The Artist was a good movie, but definitely not the best picture of 2011. I feel it won on its creativity in being a mostly silent movie, and the black and white filming. The characters were good, but the story was nothing special. The ending was a good surprise, though.
