Saturday (27/8) 21:05 Talking Pictures The Pianist (2002)
An intellectual family of Polish Jews come under the evil Nazi regime during WW2. The eldest son, a talented pianist played by an Oscar winning Adrian Brody, is separated from the family so forced to survive in isolation. The film pays tribute to the quiet heroism of the oppressed among unflinching mental and physical cruelty and humiliation from the German forces who are given seemingly free will to behave as they please. The shocking and sickening but all too familiar story is directed by the legendary filmmaker Roman Polanski and partly based on his own experiences.
