Hello again, on this next post I would like to express
my own thought toward the movie I watched before and the articles The Jews and
their deceits. First of all, I want to talk about the movie screening from Dec (4
A) The Pianist. I would like to thanks them because of their hardship in
screening the movie.
A little bit explanation about
the pianist is this movie is about. Wladyslaw Szpilman (Adrien Brody) who is a gifted
pianist who specialized in played Chopin pieces, which he did over Polish
radio. He played the last live music heard over Polish radio airwaves before
Nazi artillery hit. He and his family, including his father (Frank Finlay), his
mother (Maureen Lipman), his older brother Henryk (Ed Stoppard), and his two
sisters Regina (Julia Raynor) and Halina (Jessica Kate Meyer), are all captured
and sent to the Warsaw ghetto. The Nazis then decide to exterminate some of the
Jews in the ghetto, so they begin deporting them to the concentration camps. As
he and his family are being loaded up on the trains to be shipped away to the
camps, a former friend named Itzak Heller (Roy Smiles), now a Nazi collaborator
working as an auxiliary police officer, saves him by pulling him out of the
line. He spends the next couple of years moving from hideout to hideout, helped
by Jewish sympathizers, including a cellist he had met earlier named Dorota
(Emilia Fox), and a singer named Janina (Ruth Platt) with her husband Bogucki
(Ronan Vibert.) He might have had a romance with Dorota, but the war got in the
way. After he can’t make it to any more safe houses, he spends the last part of
the war in the ruins of the Warsaw Ghetto. It is there he is confronted by a music-loving
Nazi soldier named Captain Wilm Hosenfeld (Thomas Kretschmann), who helps
Szpilman ride out the rest of the war after an impromptu performance given by
the pianist.
Though
I enjoy watching this movie with the plot gradually up towards the climax,
still, I did saw one by one student start to leave the hall, which due to the
length of the movie (cafeteria did close a little bit early time by time with
just a little choices of food at night, so many student need to queue up early
to get the food). This then result in postponing the movie to the next day.
Before,
from what I learn from the culture I raised up in my hometown, I did think that
Hitler did a very good job by eliminating many of the Jews. However when I
watched this particular movie, The Pianist, I realize that, every society/religion
consist of many interlocking parts. Which means every single of them may vary
from one to another. Just for example, we take our religion which is Islam; all
of them are Islam but not all of them really being an Islam themselves. Though there
are Muslim does not mean they are good, however it also does not mean there are
bad. Eventually, everything actually depends on our self with who we want to
be. The very same thing can be applied to both of Jews and Nazis. Both of them
might consist villain and they also might consist one that nearly to be an arch-priest.
In the end I would say that in order to determined someone or some society our
own mind must be ready to accept and learned from all sided before we made a
conclusion towards them.
