      "Sea Pianist" Tells the Life of a Piano Genius Legend

      Max saw 1900 on the ship that was about to be blown up. The opening remarks are the same as the original sentence. In the end, 1900 chose to stay at sea and blew up and sank with the ship.

      He told Max that he didn't choose to set foot on land that time, but turned back to the boat not because of what he saw, but because of what he didn't see. Not the city in front of you. but an unseen future. "Stop in the unknown."

      When Max left in tears, 1900 stopped him twice. He was...

      The Legend of 1900--Existentialism in Life

      The Pianist at Sea is really a great movie. The soundtrack is also very nice. I like this kind of inspirational creation. I would like to pay great tribute to the outstanding creator of this film! When I tried to put the image of the male protagonist, "1900," on paper, I found it futile. The brilliance of the story can only be experienced in the movie. The film's description of the protagonist...

      Pianist at Sea: A Soul-Breaking Poetic Journey Movie

      The plot of "The Pianist at Sea" is like the tide of the blue sea, climax after climax. Playing while the piano slides freely in the stormy weather, and the children's self-taught performances shocking a boatload of people, are just the foreshadowing of the masters. Jerry, the self-proclaimed "grandfather of jazz," got on board to compete on the piano in 1900, and the level of excitement was comparable to the most intense gunfights. It's a soul-stirring, poetic journey...

      If you have music in your heart, where can you not be free?

      In 1900, he never got off the boat in his whole life. He was born in Sri Lanka, grew up in Sri Lanka, and was finally buried in Sri Lanka! But he has unlimited freedom in a limited space! Just like the old peasant who played the accordion, when he heard the cry of the sea, he felt that he was free. In 1900, too, when he was with the piano and made friends with music, he was extremely free and happy. isn't it? There is music in the heart, where is there no...

      Giuseppe's literature and art are still too straightforward, both in terms of plot settings and camera language. Some actions that can be completely memorable are finally spoken in various languages, and the grade is really lowered. And I have to say that the more I go on, the more hypocritical it is, and I don't do it well. The pianist at sea has a Leoney feel to it, especially the music that instantly reminds us of America's past. The only constant is...

    Behind the scenes

    The exterior design of the ship in the film was inspired by RMS Lusitania and its sisters. The dance hall where the piano played in 1900 had a similar round roof.
    Filming "The Legend of 1900" made Tim visit Italy for the first time in his life. It was not Tonadore who convinced him, but the monologue "1900: Monologue". This fictional story about an unknown pianist moved him .
    Although Timothy Simon Smith didn't know how to play the...

    The plot of "The Legend of 1900" resembles a blue sea, with climax wave after wave. In the violent storm, while allowing the piano to slide freely while playing, the children's performance without a teacher shocked the people on the boat. These are just the master's foreshadowing. Jerry, who claims to be the "Master of Jazz", boarded the boat and competed on the piano in 1900. The excitement was comparable to the most intense gunfight....

    Movie quotes

    • 1900: You rolled out in front of me a keyboard of millions of keys, millions and billions of keys that never end. And that's the truth Max, that they never end. That keyboard is infinite... and if that keyboard is infinite, then on that keyboard there is no music you can play. You're sitting on the wrong bench... That is God's piano.

    • 1900: Christ, did you... did you see the streets, just the streets? There were thousands of them! Then how you do it down there, how do you choose just one... one woman, one house, one landscape to look at, one way to die...?

    • 1900: Land? Land is a ship too big for me, it's a woman too beautiful, it's a voyage too long, perfume too strong...
