About this product

Product Information

Roman Polanski's THE PIANIST is based on the memoirs of the talented pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman (Adrian Brody), a Polish Jew, who miraculously survived World War II. The first half of the film transports viewers to 1939 Poland, and brings it to life clearly and believably. Szpilman is a tall, handsome, winsome man who is revered for his piano performances on public radio. He lives with his family--an intelligent, loving, and spirited bunch--in an upscale flat in central Warsaw. Bombings have begun to torment the citizens of Warsaw, and step by step, the Nazis infiltrate, the Jews are branded and set apart from their neighbors, imprisoned in a ghetto, and slowly exterminated. The story is told through Szpilman's eyes, and thus carries as much confusion and fear as disgust and torment. Polanski paints Warsaw in bleak shades of gray and black, expressing the helplessness of the Jewish people and the cruelty of the Nazis with captivating photography. In the second half of the film, which takes place in the early 1940s, Szpilman is alone, having managed to avoid the trains to the death camps. His struggle to survive, with some help from non-Jews but mostly his own will to thrive, takes place in long, silent, languid stretches filled with the imagined piano music that inspires Szpilman to live. In a climactic scene of immense beauty and spine-tingling tension, Szpilman must actually perform for a German soldier who is inexplicably patrolling the near-deserted and utterly dilapidated Warsaw ghetto. THE PIANIST, in the subtlety of its sublime and heartbreaking tale, is carried by the intensely moving performance of Brody, whose transformation is truly unforgettable.

True story of Holocaust Survivor
Heartbreaking to see the atrocities suffered by Jews in WWII. A well known pianist in Poland is separated from his family and left on his own in Warsaw to find shelter and food and warmth. Hidden by sympathizers in an apartment but at the mercy of a man that collects money for food for the pianist, but doesn't bring it. Befriended by a German officer that brings food and other necessities to help until the Russians arrive.Heartbreaking to see the atrocities suffered by Jews in WWII.

Sad, but very good movie.
This movie was definitely hard to watch at some points, since it displayed the actual cruelties of the Nazi's mindset. However, it is needed, since history will repeat itself if it is not retold and if good men of God do not stand for what is right. It made me more thankful for the blessing Christ has given me after watching this movie. I recommend the movie to able high-schoolers (and up) who can handle historical cruel violence.This movie was definitely hard to watch at some points, since it displayed the actual cruelties of the Nazi's mindset.

Disappointed with historical timeline.
I felt that the historical timeline jumped too quickly, without showing any facts. With the exception of the last half of the film, it was also difficult to believe that Brody was going through hardships. For the most part, Brody was always clean shaven and his hair was always in place. I don't understand how it won Academy awards.

A eye-opening gift to our heart and soul
The film "The Pianist" is a cut in stone definition of true prestige dramatic film making. Many others filmmakers have pursued to create films of this magnitude but tend to fall short. Filmmaker Roman Polanski captures hearts, in this soul wrenching look into the world as it was through the cold, harsh reality of humanity during World War II. Roman Polanski is a visionary who's created a masterpiece stemming from phenomenal epic writing, as he breathes life into his films.

Wladyslaw Szpilman writer of "The Pianist" has paved the way for Polanski to give the world an eye-opening gift in true emotional dramatics that can open our hearts and minds. This hard hitting film's story line personalizes itself through emotional delivery in every scene. The film's color sequences, sounds, angles, depiction’s, moods, and settings create perspective feelings and emotions that many film makers can only hope to aspire to. This epic view of the holocaust is one of a kind in it's class, speaking of class Polanski gives this brilliant film grace, and passion without unnecessary fabrications thus staying true to elegant film making and Szpilman's writing. Polanski receives a review of excellence for film development aspects, accurate sensory depth, set construction, design detail, and endless imagination. What was especially astonishing was the way Polanski managed to captivate audiences with a single character (Adrien Brody) "The Pianist", never the less another winning performance on his part. Brody’s character is depicted flawless, a gentle man with passion who’s world is torn from beneath him, leaving him starved, and sheltered in solitaire. Through this characters trials and tribulations, you'll experience the feelings that the character goes through as you relate personally with the film. Brody’s character shows how a man, no matter how broken his life, can stay strong by not giving up and remembering what makes you true. Brody and his character are impeccable, truly a triumphing casting crew. With Polanski's detailed visions and Brody's exceptional screening, this film duo could prevail all productions on the big screen. Aside the well deserved awards, This films influence and impact makes this prominent film a true inspirational work of courage, perfection and brilliance. -If emotional drama is what you seek I strongly suggest: "The Passion of The Christ" Filmed by: Mel Gibson "Green Mile" "Shindler's List" "Shawsank Redemption" "A Beautiful Mind" A Pleasure: Justin R.
