6. Roman Polanski pretty much lived that film.

I was going to say I'm getting kind of bored with Nazi and slave movies, which I am.... but the film is quite good.

There used to be a DUer...I think it was LiberalTexan...who was related to the German you'll meet at the end of the film.

Roman Polanski was a small child during that time, and there are parellels between his life and Szpilman's. So he took pains to make it very real. On the dvd there are actual newsreels shown, and then the exact replica Polanski filmed.

Adrien's performance is just wonderful. I could gush about that for a while.
