She also wanted readers to have compassion and sympathy for the abandoned creature that Victor created

Advocates of original-language versions still consider dubbing to be nothing more than an aid or a stopgap measure to increase turnover in the film industry. Critics do see dubbing today as a "bridge between nations and educational classes"‚ according to the film historian Martin Koerber during a colloquium held on the subject at the Berlin Film Museum in July 2004.

Artist is a film that tells the story of a prosperous silent film star that refuses to obey to the up and coming talkies. The director Michel Hazanavicius‚ made the bold choice of making the film a silent movie. I believe that he did this because it complimented the overall theme of the film‚ it added to the characterization of Valentin‚ and it adds a dramatic element to the film.
