I am so happy that The Artist won many of the awards it was nominated for. I love the lead actor, Uggie. What? Uggie was the best! Oh sure, he has four legs and needs a shave but he really did steal the show.
The only thing better than Uggie's performance is the background story of his life. This scrappy pup was rescued from the pound by his trainer/ owner and in his short life he has already had an illustrious career. He was given up by his original crappy owners for being too active. Really? Did you think a JRT would lay on the couch all day-those stupid jerks need a smackin'...but I digress.
Besides being known for his excellent award winning performance in The Artist, he stole the hearts of audiences in Water For Elephants.
His role in The Artist has been touted as better than some of the actors he stood beside and he even won the Palm Dog Award in Cannes.
Uggie has played his cards well and decided to retire while on top of his game. He will spend the rest of his days hanging out by the pool with his owner-chasing squirrels, signing autographs and sending love emails to his favorite girl, Lola (it could totally happen!)

Awww, if I had a say, Uggie would have won everything! I actually haven't seen The Artist yet but now that I know Uggie stars in it, I think I'll have to. What a cutie and a great story.
I love this. Uggie is just the cutest! Definitely the star of The Artist. And yeah, what were his previous owners thinking? Dumbos...
