The Pianist Summary Nominated For 7 Academy Awards, Including Best Picture, And Winner Of 3, The Pianist Stars Oscar Winner Adrien Brody In The True-life Story Of Brilliant Pianist And Composer Wladyslaw Szpilman, The Most Acclaimed Young Musician Of His Time Until His Promising Career Was Interrupted By The Onset Of World War Ii. This Powerful, Ultimately Triumphant Film Follows Szpilman’s Heroic And Inspirational Journey Of Survival With The Unlikely Help From A Sympathetic German Officer (thomas Kretschmann). A Truly Unforgettable Epic, Testifying To Both The Power Of Hope And The Resiliency Of The Human Spirit, The Pianist Is A Miraculous Tale Of Survival Masterfully Brought To Life By Visionary Filmmaker Roman Polanski In His Most Personal Movie Ever.

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
