HE GOT A CAN OPENER THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE TO EVER EXIST

Man, I can not get this film out of my head. It is so rare that a movie can affect me the way "The Pianst" did. The last movie that did that was "Casino". I was really tired when I was watching the movie. It was almost midnight, so I was thinking that I'll start watching and I'll finish it in the morning. Did I? No, indeed I did not stop watching. I couldn't stop it. I just wanted to see what would happen next. I cried during "Schindler's List", I sobbed in this film. Everything that happens in this film is so sad. Adrien Brody does a remarkable job of acting in this film. I would very highly recommend this film. Especially if you are a history buff. Please, I think this film should be in the top 10 best films of all time.

You can't believe how much I liked this movie, as a pianist myself, and without having read the about-summary, I expected it to be piano-exclusive kind of movie. I was wrong, but then, I was lucky. It turned out to be a real adaption for Wladyslaw Szpilman's miserable attempt to survive the dense era of the World War 2, and oh boy was it intense ! I felt like I am in Szpilman's shoes ! The movie is long, and detailed, it depicts everything, it makes you feel everything. And man, the ending, I had goosebumps, it was wonderful, I love how they cut the "Chopin's Ballade No.1" piece, they removed the happy parts, and kept only the relieving-then-intense parts. It is just beautiful. (This is no spoiler by no means)May you rest in peace Wladyslaw Szpilman, You are a legend, and your life made a great legendary movie !9/10

I usually don't cry when I watch movies. This movie left me in tears, I sobbed and I could relate to the main character - not exactly in the same way, but how it feels to not being seen as a part of society (apartheid and other issues of today). I didn't pause for one minute. I felt a lot of mixed emotions. This movie is so beautifully made, one part of it - when the SS soldier saves the main character - shows that there is hope for humanity, and that people have the ability to avoid their racial views and save each other when they truly feel sorry for one another. I truly recommend The Pianist, you won't be disappointed.
