incredible story of the survival

Rating: 9/10 (4 January 2003)

Based on a true story, Roman Polanski brings us the incredible story of the survival of Wladyslaw Szpilman. Set in Warsaw, Poland during World War II, we follow the lead character on his harrowing experience. He is a Jewish Pianist who has to endure the agonizing attack and occupation of Germany on Warsaw. Most of us have heard the horror stories, but to see them with our own eyes is heart breaking.
