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 freedom!

The process of watching "The Pianist at Sea" was a bit "hard": the first time I watched it, unfortunately, just after hearing a person on the boat shouting "America", the projection screen went black, and it was not repaired that day. For a long time after that, there was always a delay of one kind or another, until one day, a few months later, my father guided me to start watching some world business cards, and solemnly recommended this film to me, and I did not watch it completely. again. The film itself is like a piano piece, not impatient or impatient, soothing and melodious, telling the story of an abandoned baby growing into a talented pianist.

The male protagonist, 1900, is an orphan abandoned on a luxury cruise ship and later adopted by the kind-hearted boilermaker Danny. This particular experience gave him an unfortunate legend: no nationality, no identity, never disembarked in his life, and legally speaking, he never even existed. In addition to his adoptive father, he also has a boat of family members. Everyone on the Virginia cruise ship expressed their love for 1900 in their own way: the cooks lovingly let him take the cake, and the captain sternly taught him not to steal. , the tourists did not hesitate to applaud them for their encouragement and even praise... Of course, Danny had the most influence on him. When asked what an orphanage was in 1900, he said "if a person has no children, he will be sent." When I saw this, I thought for a while that the subtitles were wrong. But when I saw 1900 excitedly said, "So if you have me, I won't be sent to the orphanage", I instantly understood this kind of "misinterpretation" - Danny was trying to make 1900 feel important, invisibly Give him strong confidence! If there is no "silent love" from all kinds of people, there will be no confident and free pianist in the upper class in the future.

Misfortune befalls the 1900s again. At the age of 8, Danny died unexpectedly and he was orphaned again. But luck also came to him again. One night, he accidentally pushed open the door of the upper class cabin, and through the luxurious glass window, he saw the piano, indulging in the beautiful melody of the object. At that moment, the musical cells flowing in 1900's blood were completely activated, and his soul that was sleeping deep in his heart was awakened. It was another inexplicable night. The passengers sleeping in the upper class were awakened by a burst of soft music. Following the beautiful piano sound, everyone gathered in the lobby, and the smudged 1900 was playing skillfully by the piano. The onlookers were just amazed at his self-taught without a teacher, but I, who watched the film, understood the hard work behind him - I don't know how many days and nights, 1900 recalled the movements of the violinist, and concentrated on imitating and learning. Pass, I think it should be the appearance after hard work. Since then, 1900 has music in his heart, and he is no longer alone!

The most romantic scene is that in 1900, in order to relieve the seasickness of the trumpeter Touni, he released the wheel lock of the piano. As the waves undulated, he sat beside the piano and played "drift" with the piano! The strong wind and waves are thrown into the air for a while and then to the bottom of the valley. 1900 seems to be integrated with the piano, playing the melody in my heart ecstasy, and together with the piano, it suddenly left and right, suddenly up and down, suddenly forward and backward, and transformed into a A beautiful sea "waltz". No matter the storm or the turbulent waves, everything in the natural world seems to be silent in front of the music. The only thing that permeates the cruise ship is the dancing melody and the unruly soul. At that moment, he is the music, and the music is him.

The 1900s traveled the world with the Virginia, as well as in their own musical world. He expresses his emotions with music and conquers more and more people with music. As his piano pieces became world famous, Jerry, the founder of jazz, came to the challenge. At the beginning of the piano fight, Jerry, dressed in white, held his head high, and said in a high-profile manner that he would make 1900 lose miserably! The two played three pieces of music each. After the first piece of music is played, it can be said that the waves are calm! The subtitles say "warm-up". In fact, in my opinion, very few people can read 1900, especially the arrogant Jerry. The pure-hearted 1900 didn't seem to realize that he was dueling with a piano, and he didn't even realize that the onlookers bet on both sides of the duel. He was very gentlemanly exchanging skills with Jerry. Jerry's fist hit cotton, and 1900, with his unique respect for music and sincerity to musicians, easily resolved Jerry's provocation. After playing the second song, 1900 had already burst into tears and applauded Jerry sincerely, "He's great, can I cast him?" And played Jerry's song again to show respect. But in Jerry's eyes, this became a blatant provocation. In the third song, Jerry was completely angry, his eyes were fierce and his words were harsh. 1900 was also irritated by Jerry's pride and rudeness. After Jerry finished playing, 1900 repeated his old technique and played Jerry's tune again at a speed several times faster than his. This time, it was 1900's silent retaliation. He seems to have four hands, and his fingertips are dazzling across the keyboard. In the auditorium, the lady's wig fell off, the gentleman's cigar fell on his trousers, and the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground... At the end of the song, the audience was silent, and the atmosphere was completely frozen. When 1900 gently rubbed a cigarette on the hot strings, the cigarette was lit, and the audience was boiling. 1900 won! As soon as the camera turned, Jerry, dressed in black and alone, disembarked sadly. It's still music, which makes 1900 sublime again, becoming a noble person, a pure person, a person who is out of low taste.

In 1900, he never got off the ship in his life, not even for the beloved woman, until it finally sank to the bottom of the sea with the explosion of the Virginia. Some people say that he is cowardly, imprisoning himself on the boat, and dare not go to the real world. I think he is looking for his own inner freedom. 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? As long as there is music in the heart, whether on sea or on land, on board or off, where is not freedom?

The Legend of 1900 quotes

  • 1900: I think land people waste a lot of time wondering why. Winter comes and can't wait for summer, summer comes and you never can wait for winter. That's why you never tire of traveling or chasing some place far away, where it's always summer. Doesn't sound like a good bet to me.

  • Italian Immigrant: The voice of the sea, it is like a shout, a shout big a strong, screaming and screaming. And the thing it was screaming was, yoooou... with shit instead of brains... life is immense... can you understand that?

    Italian Immigrant: Immense.
