great movie December 16, 2009 Marianne Greenfield (Delhi, NY USA) This is a "must see" movie for music lovers. Great story, wonderful music, spectacular piano playing.
At least I got the movie. November 12, 2009 Robert A. Vandoren (LEESBURG, FLORIDA USA) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
I ordered the movie for my collection from Amazon. But it didn't come from Amazon. I came from an outside vendor that misrepresented it. It said it was a "full screen" version, but what I got was the "wide screen" version. Of coarse, no response from Amazon or the vendor. At least I got a copy of the movie.
Little known, but excelent movie with great piano playing an characters. November 5, 2009 David L. Donald (Koh Samui Thailand) Imagine a child who was born on a ship, in 1900, and never set foot on land in his life, yet learns to be a world class jazz piano player from listening to a few scratchy 78 records brought on board by passengers and crew. This is the oddball life of "1900", the title character, played very well by Tim Roth. He becomes a word of mouth draw for transatlantic travelers, such that even the self-described 'worlds greatest piano player' AKA Jelly Roll Morton, must come and see him...just to KNOW who's best.
Challenged by 1900's abilities, they have a 'cutting session',
each in turn trying to beat the other, and...
well you can find out how this ends. I ain't tellin'!
It is wonderfully shot and narrated, and one of my favorite movies,
with music as central but not over-ridding the personal story.
A movie I have long tried to get here in Thailand, and had to send
a Euro zone 2 cd to my sister to send to me. But I liked this movie enough to do that just to see it again.

This film leaves me truly speechless. Beautiful filming, profound writing and an interesting story. What more could a man want? Even a big explosion for the teenie boppers.
