The Pianist


The Pianist is a movie based on an autobiography of a Polish Jewish radio musician, Wladyslaw Szpilman, played by Adrien Brody. It tells the story of his struggle and journey through the Holocaust. This is a very emotional movie and is not an easy one to watch. "It is never easy to watch people suffer and die without even the glimmer of hope, which makes it extraordinary that Polanski, another Polish Jew who survived, has been able to bring Szpilman's detachment to the screen." as said by Manohla Dargis, Seattle Times Staff Writer
