"Thank God, not me. He wants us to survive. Well, that's what we have to believe."

First of all, I'm not bothered about the Jews or the Nazis in this film. I really do not care. What I want is a way to identify their cause and the manner in which they live and how they fight their enemies. I most identify is the kindness of those around who were willing to help Władysław Szpilman, especially Captain Wilm Hosenfeld. Bagi aku kebaikanlah yang harus diutamakan dalam filem ini. Pasal Yahudi dgn Nazi tu 100% aku memang tak peduli. Pergi jahanam. Yang penting aku enjoy tgk filem ini.

Wladyslaw Szpilman ( Adrien Brody ) seorang pemain piano. Memang bersungguh-sungguh dia ni nak jadi pianist. Tapi nak buat macam mana, tu memang bakat semulajadi dia. Semasa perang berlaku, dia memang takde chance nak main piano, keje dia pon main piano jugak. Selepas keluarga Szpilman ni kene angkut, tak tahulah sama ade dipindahkan or dibunuh. Wladek ni ditinggalkan sebab ada sorang askar ni tak kasi dia pergi. Selepas tu, mulalah kehidupan Wladek ni dengan penuh keseksaan.

Lepas tu Szpilman terpaksa jadi buruh untuk bina bangunan. Dia lari dan ditolong oleh kawan2 muziknya untuk sembunyikan diri. Memang susah kalau kita tengok kehidupan Szpilman ni. Aku pun kesian tengok. Lepas tu dia lari2 lah untuk cari tempat berteduh sebab askar Nazi dah ramai mencari dorang ni. Dia pun lari sampai menyorok dalam bangunan hospital yang dah kena bom. Lepas tu dia duduk la dekat satu rumah ape tah. Szpilman ni nak buka tin sebab dia lapar sangat, tiba2 tin tu terjatuh dan tergolek dekat depan German officer ni. Tapi tak dia tak sangka yang officer tu tak bunuh dia malah officer tu menyuruh Szpilman ni mainkan piano untuk dia, piano yang officer tu jumpa dlm bangunan tu. Selepas tu, officer tu tolong bawak makanan untuk dia, bagi tempat teduh yang lebih baik dan bagi coat untuk dia supaya tak kesejukan. Memang baik sangat. Tak sangka pula orang Nazi sebaik tu. Selalunya zalim.

Dah la aku malas nak cerita panjang sbb aku nak korang semua tengok filem ni. Tapi aku cerita ni je, yang last.Seperti biasa, freed prisoners of a concentration camp pass a fenced-in enclosure of German prisoners of war sitting on the ground and guarded by Soviet soldiers, they start collectively verbally abusing the prisoners, with one tirading that he used to be a violinist. A visibly beaten Hosenfeld, a shadow of his former once proud demeanor, comes up to the fence and asks the violinist if he is familiar with Szpilman, which the violinist confirms. Hosenfeld states that he helped him in hiding and asks if Szpilmann can return the favor. Szpilman, now playing live on Warsaw Radio, is visited by the violinist in the studio, who takes him to the site with all the prisoners having been removed along with any trace of the stockade. In the film's final scene, Szpilman triumphantly performs Chopin's Grand Polonaise brillante in E flat major to a large audience in Warsaw. Title cards shown just before the end credits reveal that Szpilman continued to live in Warsaw and died in 2000, but that Hosenfeld died in 1952 in a Soviet prisoner-of-war camp.

If nothing else, Hosenfeld teaches us that our acts of kindness towards people can have enormous impacts in ways we cannot imagine. I hope there are many more people like Wilm Hosenfeld. Generous, humble and selfless. I hope also that they are all not from the jews and the nazis.
