The Pessimist

Rating: Null/10 (15 June 2003)

Of all the holocaust movie, there's Schindler's List Of all the pianist movie, there's Shine
Up to the 1/3 part of the movie, I can still appreciate the life of the pianist. But not untill he started staying in the apartments trying to stay alive with nothing but luck.
It is somewhat interesting to see that someone so obsessed with music, somehow fails to see the danger lies around him. For instance, once you were faced with this kinda danger, the most logical thing to do when you were kept in an apartment or asylum is to find an alternate route or a hidden spot. (At least that's what I'll do). Infact, the pianist just carry on and believe that luck will keep him alive.
Not until he met the german captain and fail to return his thank to him. but also the ss jacket incident which keep me thinking what an obsession can make a person fail to see the surrounding life and logical threat around him.
But anyway,it is a good movie, especially if you love chopin's works.
