Then why the damn coat?

Rating: 10/10 (19 April 2007)

This is one of the best movies I've seen so far. It was on the DVD shelf so I popped it in the player to give it a view. Excellent players all around, Brody - has a minimalist effort in acting but showcases raw emotion when is called to do so. It has one of the most perturbing moments in cinema, but also the most enchanting, touching, and emotionally jarring. The last sequence culminates the recovery and reclamation of a gift that the Nazi oppression has withheld. We all have our potentialities. Wlady Szpilman was one of those who actualized his potentialities. If only we can actualize all ours too.
5/5
