The Pianist Trailer
Vladislav Spielmann, former prisoner of the Warsaw ghetto, a real Polish pianist died in 2000.
During the filming of the episode where the hero Brody had to jump out the window, despite lying bottom of a safety mat, Brody hesitated and asked: "Somebody has already tried to jump into this box?" All shook their heads. "What, no jumping?" - He asked. And then he took Polanski and siganul the window. Already below, he shouted: "Well, someone has tried it. Now it's your turn! "Brody jumped great hitting face and skinned ribs.
In scenes of deportation in the crowd as one of the children appeared Daniel Spielmann - the grandson of Wladyslaw Spielmann, and one of the Jewish policemen played by his father and the son of Wladyslaw Andrzej Spielmann.
... from the book "3500 kinoretsenzy»
existential war drama
To some, this tape seems to Roman Polanski cold and dispassionate, although these terms are unfair. Rather, we can say that his picture is so objective, as can be nesubektivnym people who personally experienced the horrors of war and the Holocaust. And it concerns not only the main character, a Polish musician Wladyslaw Spielmann, who miraculously managed to survive the terrible era and died at the age of 88 years before filming "The Pianist," based on his memoirs.
After all, Roman Polanski - perhaps the first world-class directors, who only at the end of the seventh decade of his life decided to appeal to what he knew was not hearsay and survived, as they say in their own skin. He is just as incomprehensible escaped the tragic fate of his parents, sginuvshih in a concentration camp, and, choosing from Krakow ghetto, hiding in the village.
The Pianist - Ballade No.1 in G minor Op.23 - Chopin!!!
But even those who do not know the facts of Polanski's biography could be expected from the renowned director of horror films, tapes and mystical thriller, no doubt, something frightening, anxiety, nervous and rocking. Therefore, the beginning of "The Pianist" willy-nilly is a common, ordinary, devoid of any expression, not to mention a keyed manner.
Despite the decision shoot a picture in color (Visiting Polish operator Paul Edelman had previously worked with Andrzej Wajda for films "Nastassja" and "Pan Tadeusz"), breaking as it chronicles the tradition of black-and-white movie, as declared in the same Weiden "Korczak" and Steven Spielberg in "Schindler's List, Roman Polanski is not immediately and seemed to effortlessly achieve "everydayness narrative."
The Pianist Trailer 2 (2002)
And this is the worst! When day after day, in between times, in a hurry and without any explanation of some men dressed in German or in special uniforms for the "Jewish Police" (it turns out that there were some!), humiliated, beaten, shot other people only for what they are - Jews, it works, ultimately, much stronger than the exaggerated pathos of passion on the total extermination of the Jewish nation's poor.
And the title character does not behave as much as a direct participant in the events, but if a witness who watched a little of the for everything happening. He - a kind of architectural mediator in something likened to a camera, captures on film what goes into its lens. By the way, it more than once pointed out in the elected angles filming, when Vladislav Spielmann watching things happening "everyday terror" through a narrow doorway or through the edge windows, especially in those scenes where he is hiding in illegal apartments.
And here, incidentally, was first detected a clear roll call "The Pianist" one of the key works of "old Polanski - namely, the" Tenants ", where the director is not by chance he played the title role of a Kafkaesque type, gradually descending from the mind in a rented apartment in a very rather poor district of Paris. Since both Spielmann, which remains virtually alone in the last third of the tape and tries to survive in this world in spite of reasonable arguments, which is still not live, can not be saved because, after all, and others died for nothing that none of that, it becomes like ... in Robinson Crusoe stranded on a desert island, clinging to life last bit of strength.
And unlike from the weak-willed and depressed Trelkovskogo of "Tenant", which, above all, becomes the victim of his own doubts and suspicions in relation to the world around him, the hero of "The Pianist" survives thanks to the belief that he should not, in general may not disappear before they are over time. And this word even expressed his conviction gives him just the music from which the pianist was forced excommunicated for several years.
kind of "torture the lack of music "is best expressed in the episode, when Vladislav Spielmann, after a very long break for the first time turns around the piano, but can not play for reasons of secrecy, so that forced a finger in the air without dropping them on the keys - but in his mind (and over) the music sounds Frederic Chopin. And salvation comes to the pianist did not when the Germans were leaving Warsaw, which break the Soviet troops, and when by chance it discovered by the German captain Vilm Hozenfeld can play the piano. The rest - not silent, but the music, though contrary to the final phrase of Shakespeare the hero, casting an agonizing question: "To be or not to be."
Stay tenant in this world sometimes difficult and almost impossible if the person did not own a mission, which consists for him in his writing. This man and is alive. So that Roman Polanski made a film not about the "art of survival", and the survival of through art. In the end, and his own fate miraculously kept in order to maximize realized that talent in the field of cinema.

I am delighted with this strong and aktera.Film tyazhelyy.Posle view I looked at other products on -On the other enjoyed a slice of lemon, recalling how his father Brody (piano) on the cover of the violin had shared a little toffee-wide starvation semi.A when his hid in the apartment and there was a piano, how he wanted to touch these white keys ... can not imagine myself without music, at once included his system with Julia London, all the sounds seemed to me it seems bozhestvennymi.Mne without tears and immersion in the event such a film is simply not possible to look at.
