Paris, Feb 25: Silent film “The Artist” has won six awards including best picture, best actress and best director at France's answer to the Academy Awards.
Just two days before the Oscars, co-star Berenice Bejo and director Michel Hazanavicius took top honors at the Cesar awards on Friday.
Best actor honors went to Omar Sy, star of the blockbuster feel-good movie “Intouchables” (Untouchable).
He notably beat “The Artist” star Jean Dujardin who won the category at Cannes, the Golden Globes and Britain's BAFTAs—and is among the best-actor nominees at the Oscars.
