what's new? Saw this great movie more than half a year ago.
I highly recomend it, I only regret it that sometimes movies get attention due to awards.

hmm, brody should get an award just for loosing that much weight for the part...

i really enjoyed the film.
i liked its dry straight forward approach. it made the film more emotional.

do'h
9th Gate........door.....cabinet.....ahhahha
i actually found that movie to be quite LACKING.....i'd hoped it would be significantly SCARIER, but not at all. johnny depp tho......WOAH....he's always interesting.
my fav polanski movie.....Rosemary's Baby which i just saw recently with my BF......dat was some scary sh*@T!

just finished watching this film! i really enjoyed it. very harrowing. it doesn't match the emotional impact of Schindlers List tho, what i consider to be the BEST film about the Holocaust.
you didn't find the scene where he played the piano for the german emotional?!?!.....tears streamed down my face and i had to blow my nose twice......it struck me as so sorrowful, so beautiful, it grabbed my throat and heart at the same time.
i definately recommend this film, especially for history buffs!

i got that bad impression about it after seeing first 10 minutes...and it didnt go away untill the end, i'd probably leave, but i wasnt alone
perhaps that scene was ok...actually i would've wanted more scenes in which he plays piano
i dont know why, but i find films like this funny in a way (its terrible) and pretty silly (i wish i didnt)
i prefer casual films i guess (dont need no big scenes to get emotional...it usually happens when i watch japanese films, for me they are the masters of emotional scenes)
anyway, pianist is a magnificent film (but unfortunately it does nothing for me)

well it's interesting to get different opinions.....and movies effect people differently.
i find Japanese films to be less emotional however, the infamous japanese reserve.....even when a character in a film is committing hari kari....they shed no tears....so odd and powerful in it's own way.
anyway.....i'm glad i watched it FINALLY and i loved the chopin pieces, and i agree, while not appropriate for the film i wish there had been more piano playing.
after watching the BONUS features i wanna READ the book, seems fascinating and has parts of the diary of the German officer who helped him (and other jews) which i'd like to read.

This was a great movie, I saw it recently and was very moved. How someone could not find this movie emotionally powerful is beyond me. I loved it!

i know more people that liked it to those that didnt, so surely im missing something - but it seems all so remote to me...it was terrible for sure, but i just cant put myself in the perspective of the people that experienced holocaust
but the thing that really bothers me is that there's been 1000's of films about it and they all show same things
about hari kiri-come on...thats emotional in a terrible way, you need to see some decent japanese film like dolls, eureka or the railroad man - those are the most emotional films ever
:)
