The
Pianist (Widescreen
Edition) DVD
Winner of
the prestigious Golden
Palm award at the 2002 Cannes film festival, The Pianist is the film
that
Roman Polanski was born to direct. A childhood survivor of Nazi
occupied
Poland, Polanski was uniquely suited to tell the story of Wladyslaw
Szpilman,
a Polish Jew and concert pianist (played by Adrien Brody) who witnessed
the Nazi invasion of Warsaw, miraculously eluded the Nazi death camps,
and survived throughout World War II by hiding among the ruins of the
Warsaw
ghetto. Unlike any previous dramatization of the Nazi holocaust, The
Pianist
steadfastly maintains its protagonist's singular point of view,
allowing
Polanski to create an intimate odyssey on an epic wartime scale,
drawing
a direct parallel between Szpilman's tenacious, primitive existence and
the wholesale destruction of the city he refuses to abandon.
Uncompromising
in its physical and emotional authenticity, The Pianist strikes an
ultimate
note of hope and soulful purity. As with Schindler's
List, it's one of the greatest films ever made about humanity's
darkest chapter.

The
Lord of the Rings -
The
Two Towers
(Widescreen
Edition) DVD
Fantastic
creatures, astounding
visual effects, and a climactic battle at the fortress of Helm's Deep
make
The Two Towers a worthy successor to The
Fellowship of the Ring, grander in scale but retaining the
story's
emotional intimacy. These two films are perhaps the greatest fantasy
films
ever made, but they're merely a prelude to the cataclysmic events of
The
Return of the King. |
