Incredible Acting

Rating: 8/10 (12 July 2019)

This was probably Brody's best work. I am not a fan of war movies that were directed by Americans because I find that they tend to glorify themselves or romanticise war, or even both. It makes me sick because there are no winners in war, only survivors, the wounded and the dead. The Pianist was difficult to watch at times because there was no embellishment to the drama or violence that unfolded; it was shown as true to life as possible. You could see how bleak the situation seemed and how desperate the people were to just live another day.
