An amazing fantasy film in the tradition of old Hollywood. The soundtrack won another Grammy for Italian Ennio Morricone...but was overlooked in other awards categories. The story is a fantasy of a baby born on an ocean liner, raised by the crew, he becomes the major talent on board...and when yet never ever leaves the ship...and when time comes to send the liner off to the scrap heap, he elects to go down with the ship. The whole film has an amazing melancholy about it...and is one that will come back to you in thought again and again. I've seen it for the third time...bought the soundtrack...and bought YoYoMa's recording of the music from the film as interpreted on his amazing cello. I can't recommend this film enough...it's going to take you back to the good old days of Hollywood and remain with you long after...Read full review

If you enjoy the earlier or the beginning efforts of jazz then you'll like this. The piano parts are very entertaining. I'm a retired musician and can appreciate the exciting ride the piano takes you on. Plus the story is interesting also. I plan on watching this a few times a year.

I saw this movie at a friend's place over a year ago, and it has haunted me ever since. it is extremely moving.... powerful. I finally realized I should order it so I have it myself. So I did. It feels like money in the bank.

Great movie with a wonderful story line and acting. This is the 170 minute uncut version, originally available only with PAL regional coding and very much superior to the earlier USA release DVD which was cut down (butchered) to 2 hours.

Entertaining with great music. Plot is pure fiction, yet not out of the realm of possibility.

A WORK OF FICTION ABOUT A BABY BORN AND ABANDONED ON AN ATLANTIC PASSENGER LINER IN THE YEAR 1900. HE WAS FOUND IN THE DINING HALL BY A MEMBER OF THE ENGINEERING CREW WHO REARED HIM AND CALLED HIM 1900, AS THE BABY HAD NO NAME TAG. AS A BOY HE TURNED OUT TO BE A MUSICAL PRODIGY AND EVENTUALLY PLAYED PIANO IN THE SHIPS DANCE BAND FOR FIRST CLASS PASSENGERS PLUS ON HIS OWN TIME ENTERTAINING THE LOWER CLASS PASSENGERS-MOSTLY IMMIGRANTS COMING TO THE US. THE CHARACTER 1900 STAYS ON THE SHIP UNTIL ITS DEMISE IN 1947 AND THE STORY CENTERS AROUND HIS GOOD FRIEND WHO TRIES TO SAVE HIM, GET HIM TO FINALLY GET OFF THE SHIP AND CASH IN ON HIS EXTRAORDINARY MUSICAL TALENT. TIM ROTH IS GREAT AS 1900; CLARENCE WILLIAMS III IS WONDERFUL AS THE SO-CALLED INVENTOR OF JAZZ, JELLY ROLL MORTON. FUNNY, GREAT MUSIC, AND FEW MOVIES CAN COMPARE IN ORIGINALITY. ONE OF MY TOP 10 FAVORITES, ALL TIME.Read full review
