2011 Movie France, Belgium Drama, Romance, Comedy 100 min Ages 7+
By: Michel Hazanavicius With: Bérénice Bejo, Jean Dujardin, Penelope Ann Miller, James Cromwell, Beth Grant

Outside a movie premiere, enthusiastic fan Peppy Miller literally bumps into the swashbuckling hero of the silent film, George Valentin. The star reacts graciously and Peppy plants a kiss on his cheek as they are surrounded by photographers. The headlines demand: "Who's That Girl?" and Peppy is inspired to audition for a dancing bit-part at the studio. However as Peppy slowly rises through the industry, the introduction of talking-pictures turns Valentin's world upside-down.
