In fact, from the beginning to the end of this 140-minute film, there are only two long shots where the hero is playing the piano. For most of the rest of the time, the Jewish hero hides and flees in terror under the guns of the Nazis. With the help of a kind person, he was lucky not to set foot on the train to the concentration camp, and was lucky enough to be sent to a different room, where he lived with fear and hunger every day under the eyes of the Nazis.
It is a blessing to be able to live in times of peace. We have food and clothing, a comfortable life, a healthy body, and freedom. As for the Jewish nation living under the iron shoes of the Nazis, they have long lost their basic dignity as human beings, and have even been deprived of their right to live. They would be executed on the spot by the Nazis at any time, anywhere, without any reason. Killing a person at that time will not cause any shock at all, as if life is like dust, and it is shot away.
free? It was delusional, and it was lucky not to be sent to a concentration camp. From demarcating Jewish quarters to prisons, from prisons to hiding in unoccupied rooms where people dare not open the door, dare not see people and cannot make a sound, so that a pianist, sitting in front of a piano, can only use his fingers in the air Pressing falsely, for fear of making a sound and causing death, freedom has long since become a sacred word that I dare not imagine.
food? Hungry people can do anything. An old man robbed an old lady's lunch box in public. The lunch box was knocked over, and the greasy omnivorous porridge was spilled on the ground. All the porridge was swept into his mouth, ignoring the cry of the old lady and the speechless silence of passersby.
sleep? As long as you can find a place where you can lay your body flat, it is a bed. Even in a half closet full of ammo, be grateful that God at least gave you a safe place to stay. When the pianist escaped from prison and stepped into a friend's house, and saw a sofa where he could sleep, the satisfaction in his heart was felt even by the audience. When the war was raging, even the operating bed of the Nazi hospital could be used as a sleeping place.
clothing? The brothers also had an argument over the color of the tie. Almost overnight, they said goodbye to their neat suits and woolen coats, put on shabby work clothes, and scrambled in muddy water like drowning dogs. In the ruins, being able to keep out the cold has become the first need. For this reason, the pianist even put on a Nazi uniform, so that he was almost killed by the Soviet Red Army as a Nazi.
A piece of bread, a glass of water, a bed, a piece of clothing, a friend, a family, a day when we can walk down the street without fear of being shot at any time, these things seem so handy to us that we have never been grateful , in another time and space environment, it will become the most important thing in life. So, when we have these most important things every day, do we think that we could actually lose them all at any time? Should we be more content and grateful for what we have now? Are the things we fight about, get angry about, and worry about every day really that important? Every day we should think about the pianist in rags, frantically looking for a mouthful of dirty water in the rubble.
I have always lacked musical skills, but the two piano performances by the male protagonist in the film really give people a deep memory. Once, when he was starving and cold, and his life was threatened at any time, under the watchful eye of a Nazi officer, he played a song full of sadness, anger and conflict, and a ray of sunlight came in from the window. On the pianist's bearded face, the sun almost penetrated the pianist's thin nose due to extreme hunger and malnutrition. The fingers were almost frozen because of the cold, and it was almost difficult to play a continuous tune at first, but the inner pain was quickly vented to the keys through the fast-flying fingers, and the sad and angry sound of the piano even made the Nazis hold their breath. .
The second time was after the war, the pianist, who had recovered his health and clothing, was making records in the studio. At this moment, his tune is soft and soothing, it is the rest of the traveler who has traveled for a long time, and it is the release after being trapped in a cage for a long time. When a friend who has experienced calamity appeared outside the recording studio, the pianist shed silent tears. , the sound of the piano continues, and at the end of the film, the scene of the performance is transferred to the silent theater. After experiencing the pain of war, separation, and family destruction, people can sit in the theater and listen to a beautiful piano performance. What kind of emotion and excitement are in the hearts of individuals, at this moment, music has become the most tender spiritual comfort they have come into contact with after their ordeals, soothing their pain-torn souls and rekindling them Yearning and longing for a better life. Music is their spiritual paradise, and it is the most sacred spiritual baptism in their hearts. The pianist played with confidence and without reservation, showing his consummate skills to his heart's content. He wanted the purest, most beautiful, and most beautiful music to be fully delivered to every dried-up music for as long as possible. in the mind. . . . . .
A good movie will inspire you to think about the meaning of life, make you re-examine the world around you, and make you feel uplifted and delighted. "The Pianist" is such a movie. For this reason, even if it violates the laws of life, it is worthwhile to see it at 2:30 in the morning.
