Une belle réussite fait menant à une réflexion honnête sur un sujet face auquel on aurait pu croire que tout aavait déjà été dit.

Brody is a sublimely haunting presence at the heart of The Pianist.

[I]t takes six or seven people to keep one half-dead Jew alive.... Wladyslaw's situation is extraordinary but what's happening on screen doesn't really feel so extraordinary. There's almost no emphasis, no point of view.

Brody tracks Szpilman's descent from smug celebrity to feral, starving man with uncommon subtlety.

While the film itself may not live up to the advance hype, Brody exceeds expectations.

True story of a Jewish pianist; OK for older kids.

Old-fashioned in both visual and narrative style and in its overall restraint, the film clearly benefits from the director's first-hand knowledge of the territory.
Newsweek

In going home to tell Szpilman's story Polanski seems reborn: once again he's become a filmmaker who matters.

A film that rivals every one of the greatest Holocaust films ever made...

It's Roman Polanski's strongest and most personally felt movie.
May 26, 2009
Roman Polanski's "The Pianist" is the director's finest achievement, and elevates Adrien Brody (Oscar win for Best Actor 2002) to eminence in his representation of Wladyslaw Szpilman, a Polish Jew who survived the Nazi occupation of Warsaw.

We admire this film for its harsh objectivity and refusal to seek our tears, our sympathies.
