If there is a musical instrument, it can be beautiful and graceful, it can also be pathetic, and even playful and light, just like the changeable elf, it has an endless mood healing huge energy, often called "the king of musical instruments", mentioning its name, even equivalent to mentioning the alias of "beauty"...
Yes, it's the piano!
When I was a child, I was also sent by my mother to the piano teacher to register, and the teacher squeezed my little meat hand and shook his head repeatedly, saying that it was too short, so he completely "broke" my piano dream.
Maybe I want to make up for what is missing, and later, I especially loved to watch movies on the theme of the wonderful life of a pianist.
Melodious piano sounds, moving stories, beautiful visual pictures... No matter how many real-life troubles there were at the time, they could be easily cured by the 100 minutes of a movie.
The following is a list of my beloved piano music movies, I believe that I can send a elixir full of gentle power in the middle of your sleepless nights.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > green book Green Book (2018</h1>).
Let's start with a relatively new film. Don't underestimate it, it also ranks 66th in the "Douban Movie TOP250", with more than 1 million people giving it a high score.
The story goes that Donald Shirley, an elegant, picky, self-disciplined black pianist, is on a tour of the racially racially charged South and hires a white driver.
The next part of the tour made both of them open their hearts and their fate changed.
Shirley playing the piano in the movie.
The legendary black pianist in the movie, in the history of music, really has his own person:
Shirley's first album, this cover, was designed by himself
As in the movie, the musician Shirley is brilliant, but has spent his life battling the "cold violence" of racial prejudice. The more people love him, the more people misread him in their own way.
Having a genius is not enough for life.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > The Legend of 1900 (1998).</h1>
This one is too famous, ranking 11th in the Douban movie Top250.
The pianist 1900 is a myth as wonderful and moving as a musical note, but without a trace.
He was born on the ship, died on the ship, with no birth record, no death certificate, as if it had never existed on earth.
But there is a movie that makes us believe that there really is such a pure pianist.
Because of this piano tone, this heartbeat, so real.
"People on land like to find the roots and waste a lot of time. Winter worries about the late arrival of summer, and summer worries about the coming of winter. So you keep going around looking for an unattainable place with all its seasons in summer—I'm not envious. ”
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Autumn Sonata Höstsonaten (1978).</h1>
This masterpiece of 9.0, almost no one in the headlines mentioned it, comes from the big director Ingmar Bergman.
Ingrid Bergman, the goddess of cinematic history, plays a pianist in it, and the director's royal muse, Liv Uman, plays her daughter.
The film itself, like the title, has a delicate structural design like a sonata, a narrative emotional theme, and tells a stinging story in warm orange tones.
The pianist mother with a bright artistic career actually faces her daughter who is separated from her by an emotional gap, and the pain is like a sharp knife stabbing in the heart.
The closest people, however, may be like the black and white buttons on the piano, unable to hug each other. Intimacy is the hardest practice in the world.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > prodigy (2007</h1>).
The heroine has a superb talent for piano playing since she was a child.
What is a true genius?
It is not only about having great skill, but also about having a deep self-confidence in the soul.
It was as if the heroine smiled at the silly boy and said softly: I am the music.
Beethoven. Mendelssohn.
The most beautiful part is the clean and gentle boy next door, who communicates with the heroine's heart.
An eccentric genius girl who is difficult to get along with in the eyes of others, but he can feel her, understand her, play his exam pieces with her musical soul, and cry when he hears her playing in concerts...
Finally, in the "piano grave" of the girl's father, the boy and the girl play hand in hand, and this piano sound is the sound of love.
Finally, praise the male protagonist Kenichi Matsuyama, he originally did not know the piano, it took five months of special training, and when he finally filmed, he was able to play Beethoven's music to perform the taste, with his clean appearance and slender fingers, it was so beautiful.
< h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right", > Kotonomori Piano Forest (2007)</h1>
Adapted from the manga of the same name by Japanese manga artist Makoto Ichise, the film tells a story about the piano and a teenager, and also explores what is really the pursuit of the art of music.
Yes, in fact, this is not a simple animated film, which can bring you deeper thinking and inspiration.
Mozart's piano sonata "K310", which appears repeatedly in the film, is a metaphor for the pursuit of independent thinking in art.
When Mozart composed this piece, he was still a humble court musician, eager to break free from the shackles of fate and create truly freely.
Yet in that era, Mozart was finally hit hard by illness and poverty. But K310 stayed behind and became a representative voice in the pursuit of freedom and ideals.
What is the difference between the same piano, a rich man who has been practicing the piano since childhood, and a poor child who can only play a broken piano in the forest since he was a child?
Listen attentively and find your own answers.
<h1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > piano boy Vitus (2006).</h1>
Werther is a teenager with an IQ of 180!
He can easily meet his parents' expectations of him, but he doesn't know what he really wants.
But he had a childlike grandfather. Grandpa wanted to be a pilot since he was a child, and in order to experience the mood of flying freely in the sky, his final career was a carpenter.
When Grandpa finally flew like a bird in a plane, he told Witt that although he had been a carpenter all his life, he was still happy because: ideals, just a part of life.
At the end of his life, Grandpa taught Witt how to stick to his inner dream: what people have to do is to follow the arrangement of fate and move forward bravely.
So the child bravely knocked on the door of the "legendary female pianist", where he had fled.
The female pianist once said to him, "Witt, you shouldn't play the piano for your mother, or for me, until you want to play music..."
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > shiny shine Shine (1996</h1>).
The film is based on the true story of Australian pianist David Helfgott.
David Huffcourt's real performance poster
Actor Jeffrey Rush won an Oscar for his fanatical acting skills - even the fingers can burst into a heart-warming superb acting, and won the Oscar.
In the film, he walks into a restaurant with a disheveled face, and with his cigarette butt fingers like an enclave, he plays a song "Wild Bee Flying". Every note from start to finish is played by the actor himself, and his fluency and professionalism at the touches of his fingers are impeccable, because Jeffrey Rush himself was once a piano teenager.
David Huffcourt was a piano genius who, at the age of five or six, was forced to challenge the "world's most difficult work" as a genius pianist in Piano Concerto No. 3 in D minor. His strict paranoid father, the broken family, cast a shadow on his memory and soul.
Following the feelings of the protagonist, we will hear a large number of classical piano songs, whether it is Vivaldi in the Baroque era, or the magic of La 3, or romantic works, which will throw us into the ocean of music at any time, and we can better appreciate the protagonist's fanatical state of mind of "playing the piano like no tomorrow".
There are more than 10 different pianos in the movie, ranging from ordinary ones to old peach wood ones, to Steinway, whose strings have been broken, and to the family piano whose keys are burned out of holes by cigarette butts.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > pianist The Pianist (2002</h1>).
How could there be no such one? The famous work of the great director Roman Polanski, somewhat comparable to "Schindler's List", is adapted from the autobiographical novel "Dead City" by polish pianist Wladyslaw Szpilman.
On the ruins, a Jewish pianist played a song for a German Nazi officer. In just a few minutes, the officer decided to reach out to him and secretly protect him.
The story transcends ideology and simple indictments of war criminals.
Human nature has no absolute relationship with which country a person is, which party he believes in, and what kind of education he receives.
In the dusty ruins of the attic, the quiet piano music flows slowly in the gap of light, flowing over the edge of the struggle between life and death, flowing through the faces of relatives in heaven, and flowing through the repressive years of long flight and humiliation.
The film is impressive for Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata and Chopin's Dance No. 1 in G minor.
It is said that Adrian Brody immediately rented a house for this role, sold the house, separated from his girlfriend at the time, packed two bags of clothes and came to the European set, and spent several months practicing the piano before learning to play Chopin's work on the piano himself.
However, the 28-year-old unknown also won an Oscar for this.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > Mozart's biography Amadeus (1984</h1>).
The film is a little older, second only to the previous Autumn Sonata.
From the perspective of a court musician, Sarrieli, the film presents us with the life of the genius Mozart. Sarielli was also a famous Viennese musician, but always burned a raging fire of jealousy towards Mozart. The pain and hatred in his heart actually deeply infected the audience.
