The Pianist


    The pianist is the story of a brilliant pianist, a polish Jew, witnesses the restrictions Nazi’s place on Jews in the polish capital, from restricted access to the building of Warsaw Ghetto. This story is based on true story of Wladyslaw Szpilman, a pianist who survives through the Nazi’s reign. This story displays the cruelty of the Nazi towards the Jews. It touches us through our emotion with the appalling incidents that has been displayed. I think that this story is realistic enough to let us know and feel the exact condition of the Jews during that time. There's a certain amount of randomness to the events that is not comforting but that is the truth. 

**The pianist is nominated for six Academy Awards including Best Picture, The Pianist went on to win three Oscars, including Best Director (Roman Polanski), Best Actor (Adrien Brody), and Best Adapted Screenplay (Ronald Harwood). The film also won the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.
