Szpilman (Adrien Brody) is a pianist recording a recital for a local radio station when bombs drop on Warsaw in 1939, just before the Nazi occupation of the city really begins to take hold. As he and his family are slowly stripped of their rights, they endure the humiliation of being forced to live in a walled ghetto, already overcrowded with the entire Jewish population of Warsaw.

  • That IS the central character. Playing the piano again IS what drives his courage.

    A brilliant film about anyone interested in Germany's horrendous treatment of Poland during World War 2. A true story about an incredibly brave man and how he survived in the Warsaw Jewish ghetto.

  • AbsolutelyBrilliant True Story

    A true story about a pianist Jew hiding from the Germans. A truly marvellous film that keeps you totally entertained throughout. Just brilliant. The only downside were the subtitles on the DVD which did not match the actual words spoken - a little annoying when your just a little hard of hearing and not totally deaf

  • The Pianist-A Review.

    This is based on a true story,and well worth a watch for the acting performances and period detail.A scene in which the pianist literally plays to save his life infront of a German officer is particularly poignant and tense.Well worth the time.
