Movie Reviews of The Legend of 1900
Movie Review: Hollywood: please, please, please take note:
Summary: 5 Stars
Give us MORE of this sort of movie.
Not because of the cinematography, or the special effects, or the "star billing" but because this film captures an emotion that we are all familiar with and portrays it so excellently.
Tim Roth steps out of his Tarantino mold and does a SUPERB job of capturing the essence of an ellusive and eccentric and talented musician... and (to the credit of another fav of mine) "all that that implies..."
My wife picked this up because it looked like it was "outside the usual pale of [hollywood] orthodoxy." And man was it ever.
Just the ordinary story of an extraordinary person - even if it is a fiction.
Completely riveting from start to finish.
Movie Review: Blew me away!
Summary: 5 Stars
It was about 12:30a, the house was quiet and I was cruising channels for Indies. Like the sun rising this movie crept up and delighted me. It is a story I wish I had told...it was just waiting to be let loose. I watched it with slack jaw disbelief at it's originality, depth and beauty...neither of which overshadowed the pure brilliance of this story. It is like a ghostly visitation..buy it, watch it late, with a favorite beverage, alone first, as you will want to remain speechless...1900 will come to visit everafter, he will remain your closest secret friend...you'll never look at a luxury ship the same!Movie Review: The best movie ever 5 Stars
My favourite movie ever made....At first it might seem a bit slow, but the film script is a well planned poem that stretches over two hours of pure artistic magic.
It is warm, funny , intellegent and so much more.....
You may think this is a one sided point of view but i'm in fact a massive science fiction and adventure movie fan so this review can be trusted.
The piano duel scene is one of the best scenes of cinema i have ever seen and Tim Roth is brilliant.
Enjoy!!!

Movie Review: A memorable fable for adults, beautifully made
Summary: 5 Stars
How did this terrific movie slip under the radar?
It's about the nature of art, the power of music, the mystery of friendship and love. Most of all, it's about how our fears prevent us from experiencing the immensity of life.
When was the last time you saw a movie tackle issues like this?
The widescreen production is ravishing to watch. It's rare to see an art house film executed with such first-class grandeur. The acting is also uniformly excellent. And the score is luscious.
If you liked THE PIANO or AMADEUS, prepare to be blown away.
Movie Review: One of the best movies almost no one has seen
Summary: 5 Stars
I would personally rate this hauntingly beautiful movie among the best I've seen, and as others reviewers have said, it's worth watching for the music alone, even if you don't end up liking the story.
I first saw this movie, curiously enough, on a Lufthansa flight back in 2000 or so, and since then heard almost nothing else about it until I found it on a friend's Amazon wish list. It doesn't have a typical Hollywood sort of plot, but I'm surprised at how little an impact it seemed to make even with people normally into this kind of film.
