After the victory of World War II, Polish Jewish pianist wladyslaw Szpilman began to write his memoir "pianist". After being adapted into a film, in the ruins of Warsaw, the title of the film is "Warsaw Robinson.". Later, the Warsaw government renamed "the city not conquered", and joined the Warsaw residents before the broadcast to welcome the Soviet army into the city.

Polish French director Polanski, born in France, was born in Jew. Polanski himself returned to Poland before the war. His mother died in the Jewish camp, and his father survived. He was 8 years old and escaped from a twisted hole in the wire mesh to survive.

One day, Polanski got a memoir from pianist wladysraw Szpilman. When he saw the first chapter, he felt that the subject would become his new film. As Polanski said, "the film describes the real situation of that period with surprising objective strokes, which is almost cold and accurate. Polish people have good or bad in the book, Jews are good or bad, Germans have good and bad... "" He wants the films he produced to be as close to the facts as possible, not the typical Hollywood style.

The pianist, after allowing Polansky to shoot, closed his eyes and slept in Chopin's music - in July 2000, he was 88 and could not wait until the film was finally completed.

From the beginning to the end, the film has been standing in the perspective of an observer to feel the damage of World War II to polish and Polish Jews. For example, when Szpilman was initially isolated in Jewish communities, he saw the child smuggling food die alive by breaking the spine, his eyes filled with helplessness and fear. At the end of the film, watching a group of Jews die in various ways, at this time, there is no extra expression in his eyes. At this time, the God of death, like a shadow, appears at any time, performing everything about death in various ways. He shuttled through it just to survive and survive. He knelt at the foot of the Nazi in Germany, just to survive and survive. As one of the undergrads in the film says, "it's harder to live than to die."

The characters in the film are very few white, and there is no heroic language. For help, or being helped, people have made final records with their hearts. Szpilman was saved several times by his old Nazi friends. Those who did not know how to make the fortune of the dead, the revolutionary party who gathered money in the name of Szpilman, helped the Japanese and the Japanese who hid in Szpilman. Jews, good and bad. Polish, good or bad. German Nazis, there are good and bad. Revolutionary party, good or bad.

Szpilman is a pianist, but the film itself is not the main form of music. But music, however, always plays a role in further baking the film atmosphere when it is critical. When Szpilman lived on piano in a cafe, Szpilman was absent-minded and music was available. When Szpilman saw a piano in his hiding place, he instinctively sat on it, and then his fingers began to scratch over the keyboard. The background music sounded, and it was playing if he didn't play. Music, in Szpilman, is a force of survival. When Szpilman finally faced with German officers, Chopin played Chopin's "the Fourth Piano narrative music", from being unfamiliar to skillful, from despair to forgetting the distance between life and death, music, and music, gave us another eternal door. It entertains people in peace and in war. Turn the war rage into a man's desire for survival.

To live is the greatest victory.
To the noblest soul, salute.

Some reflections on the pianist

1. On the Jewish nation

During World War II, the Jewish population of Warsaw in Poland was sharply reduced from 500000 to 6W. In terms of the history of the Jewish nation, Europe has always been persecuting the Jewish nation as a heresy. From this point, it has certain comparability with the Chinese nation.
What is forgetting? What is memory?
In the Second World War, China was also persecuted by Japanese imperialism. From September 18th to Nanjing Massacre, it has become the eternal pain of our whole nation.
But in the pianist, there is no hatred, no shouting, no curse. Only human beings desire to survive, forgiveness for war. He looked at the history and reproduced it in various forms. The Jewish nation after the war, for war criminals during World War II, took out huge amounts of property to be wanted all over the world. The Jewish people after the war, in the shortest time, smoothed the wounds, and then told the world in their own way who was the real strong.

2. About love

There is a lot of love in the film.
Like kinship. When the Szpilman family had six portions of sugar. Although they did not know that what they were waiting for was death, although they were humble and unable to determine their fate, the sugar was stuck in my throat, which made me unable to pronounce for a long time.
Again, love. Actually, the film can be made into a war love film. Beautiful Taole, Szpilman is full of love and worship. But not. When Szpilman, who escaped, met Dorothy again, she was in a state of arms and helped Szpilman with her husband, who was sitting in her room and practicing cello. Szpilman, always without any language, just stood outside quietly watching.
What is love before war? What is love?
Remember a film reflecting the Nanjing Massacre, and finally, it became a emotional play.

3. About death and music

The music in the film, carefully speaking, is actually some very simple music. But it's these simple music, moments and death. Szpilman's hand is on the piano, called playing. When Jewish workers were forced to sing Christmas songs on Christmas Eve, they were not angry, not sad, but hope. Szpilman's hand slides rapidly over the keyboard. Isn't it also the best life song?

4. About Polansky

Polansky, the film director, has always been a mixed character. He was born in France and his parents were Jewish. During World War II, he returned to Poland. His mother died in Nazi camps, and his father and he survived. But for that experience of the past, it is undoubtedly his life pain.
When Spielberg invited him to make famous film, Schindler's list, he refused. Because for him, this history is too painful.
In 1969, his wife, Sharon Tate, was killed by the Mason party, and he himself showed indifference to it. He was later involved in a scandal of rape. Although he strongly denied it, he served six months in prison, and was supervised by a psychiatrist. Finally, he thought that the judge would not be impartial and fled during the trial, and became an American Fugitive in 1977. Polansky has never returned to the United States since then.
A person who has experienced it in person, took the pianist with such a cool lens, without hatred and revenge, but tried to recreate a history as much as possible. The pain that the body and mind suffer is very human can understand.

5. About survival

From then on, please attach importance to any form of survival. Because, only living, can there be hope. Only living can we clean up the humiliation of "living". It is only living that we can remember this history forever.
