DVD Reviews of The Pianist

DVD Review: This is what will happen to us if Obama gets his reform.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a wonderfully made movie. It is very well done.
The male star was wonderful. Every one should watch this movie, particular young kids. This is what will happen to the United States if the reform of Obamas passes. We can look for these things to happen to all of us. It has happened over and over in society. We just never thought it would happen in the US. i highly recommend this movie. I gave it a 5 stars because the acting was wonderful; everything was wonderful.

DVD Review: Fascism revealed
Summary: 5 Stars

A must see movie; it exposes how hundreds of thousands of Jews were exterminated during 1940's. The movie shows a survival of one Jew pianist.

DVD Review: good if you like history
Summary: 5 Stars

seller had it sealed wrap like stated, fast shipping... Thanks for the widescreen version and will buy in the near future again

DVD Review: Astonishing
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a WONDERFUL Motion Picture from Director, Roman Polanski, dealing with the Holocaust and the Malevolent treatment of the Jews during WWII, starring Adrien Brody. His performance carries you through his adversity on his shoulders, while never losing his love of Music. Astonishing is putting it lightly. Subsistence of life is what makes this great work so amazing. A must watch. I give this an "A".

DVD Review: Never Expected Such a Great Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

I have know little about the way the Germans treated the Jewish people in that war. I learned a lot about how the Jewish people suffered, and my heart goes out to them all.
I could not take my eyes off the screen. How this man suffer and his family and all the Jewish people.
From the title of the movie I did not expect such an intense movie. My applause to the director and actors/actresses.
Great movie to learn from; lots of truth about what happen back then to the Jewish people.
I sent my oldest sister a copy of the DVD, The Pianist. I'm sure she's going to love it. It's a tear jerkier.

May God Bless All The Jewish People That lost Family Due to the War.

Description of The Pianist

Music was his passion survival was his masterpiece. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 01/17/2006 Starring: Adrien Brody Run time: 150 minutes Rating: R Director: Roman Polanski
Winner of the prestigious Golden Palm award at the 2002 Cannes film festival, The Pianist is the film that Roman Polanski was born to direct. A childhood survivor of Nazi-occupied Poland, Polanski was uniquely suited to tell the story of Wladyslaw Szpilman, a Polish Jew and concert pianist (played by Adrien Brody) who witnessed the Nazi invasion of Warsaw, miraculously eluded the Nazi death camps, and survived throughout World War II by hiding among the ruins of the Warsaw ghetto. Unlike any previous dramatization of the Nazi holocaust, The Pianist steadfastly maintains its protagonist's singular point of view, allowing Polanski to create an intimate odyssey on an epic wartime scale, drawing a direct parallel between Szpilman's tenacious, primitive existence and the wholesale destruction of the city he refuses to abandon. Uncompromising in its physical and emotional authenticity, The Pianist strikes an ultimate note of hope and soulful purity. As with Schindler's List, it's one of the greatest films ever made about humanity's darkest chapter. --Jeff Shannon
