This is certainly the best work Mr. Polanski has done in many years..., Los Angeles Times - ...THE PIANIST achieves the monumental without abandoning the modesty of its origins....Polanski's strange genius serves Szpilman's remembrance..., USA Today - ...[Polanski] brings history to life....It stays with you..., Entertainment Weekly - ...[A film] of riveting power and sadness, a great match of film and filmmaker -- and star, too..., Box Office - ...THE PIANIST is a worthy Holocaust drama and a welcome return to form for Roman Polanski..., Rolling Stone - ...A portrait of hell so shattering it's impossible to shake..., Film Comment - ...A monument to the indestructibility of the human spirit...
Additional InformationRoman Polanski's THE PIANIST is based on the memoirs of the talented pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman (Adrien 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 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 until step by step 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.
