A remarkable story of one man's survival in

Rating: Null/10 (3 July 2009)

Wladyslaw Szpilman, a famous Polish Jewish pianist works for the Warsaw radio.His whole world is turned upside down with the World War II and the invasion of PolanndThe movie is based on the novel written by Wladyslaw Szpilman.I read it a few years ago, and it really stunnded me.This is a magnificent movie made of that book.Adrien Brody, who won an Oscar, is brilliant in the lead.The suffering he goes through is seen on every expression of his face.There are many scenes in this movie that shock you.There's that when the German officer orders some Jewish workers to lay down and then shoots them all in the head.With the last man in the line he has to reload his gun and the man can do nothing but wait until he's finished.Another shocking scene is when the man in a wheelchair is pushed out of the window.There's a lot of beauty in this movie also.It's beautiful every time Szpilman touches his piano.When he plays, it all seems a little better...for a while.
