海上钢琴师(英语影评)这个是⽼师的作业在⽹上索罗整理的A Film Review―The Legend of 19001900, an abandoned baby which is taken care by one of the crews in the ship, Virginia. 1900 was the year which the crew discovered the baby, thus, the boy was named 1900. The crew dies several years later and at that time, 1900 is entirely isolated. He is a genius and he knows how to play the piano without being taught. He gets his own style and wins the applause of passengers. However, he isn’t happy at all. What he is searching for is love and care, yet he cannot find them. In this essay, I willexamine how 1900 suffers from loneliness and how he is afraid of changes.The only companion of 1900 is the piano; he gets used to expressing his feeling via music. Yet, can the piano share with him? Can the music be the tonic for his loneliness? The poor guy has no choices; he was born to be lonely. Maybe it’s his fate. 1900 always wants to attract people by his absorbing performance. Though there is, in fact, nearly no conversation between them, they even don’t know one another. He still wants to be surrounded by the crowd. 1900 doesn’t want to be alone; he enjoys the time being accompanied by people. This can explain why he feels so disappointed, frustrated and he stops playing the piano when the crowd leaves as the destination is reached. 1900 has to become solitary again!One of the passengers admires his talents very much and tries to talk to him. The farmer shares with him about his misfortune and loneliness. 1900 knows the feeling better than anybody does as he has been suffering for 27 years! He hasn’t disclosed his feeling to others; he just says that he gets a friend sharing the similar situation. It’s a paradox that on the one hand, he wants to speak out his own feeling, which has buried in his heart for a long time, and shares with people; on the other hand, he can’t pluck up his courage to mention his situation in front of people. Mayb e it is of no use to tell others or 1900 doesn’t want anyone to sympathize him.Loneliness makes him afraid of contacting strangers, lack of confidence and shy while communicating with strangers. When there’re two strangers coming to inform him the co mpetition, he runs away and hides himself. Poor 1900 is afraid of being hurt. With no doubt, loneliness adversely affects his personality. On the shipboard, a young, pure, beautiful girl has caught his attention. He loves the girl and wants to send her a g ift. He doesn’t know how to initiate the conversation. 1900 practices again and again in the cabinet. He is too timid to send the girl his record. His personality makes him miss a chance. 1900 isvery unhappy and breaks the record. Again, he just keeps his mouth shut and never shares with the others. It is obvious that he no longer wants to share, he is too tired to find opportunities to air his feeling.Changes make 1900 scared, he wants his everyday life remains the same. For 27 years, he stays on board and never treads on land. Although his crews always persuade him to get off, he is reluctant to try. Several months after the girl had left, 1900 suddenly wants to tread on land. His reason is that he wants to listen to the voice of the sea as he can only hear it clearly on land. However, it’s true that he wants to find the girl and expresses love to her. 1900 hides his feeling again. Yet, when he is on the halfway of the ladder that leads to the land, he stops. He stands there to look at the city in front of him. 1900 gives up treading on land and returns to the ship.1900 can live safely on the ship as he can see the ends of the ship. Many years later, as the ship is too old and it needs to be exploded to pieces. One of the crew knows that he will be still on the ship. He tries to find him. Before his death, 1900 tells the reasons for not treading on land when he’s walking down the ladder. “ I’m not afraid of what I can see, I’m afraid of what I can’t see”, 1900 is frightened as he can’t see the en d of the city. “ Where is the end of the world?” Moreover, there’re only two thousand passengers on broad at a time. It’s a fixed number and it will not change. It can explain why 1900 prefers staying on board.He takes the piano as an example, “ Ther e are finite keys on the piano”, and he can make “infinite music” out of it. However, the world is a piano that is too big for him. There are infinite keys in the world, how can he make music out of it? It implies that there are so many changes in the worl d; he can hardly face the challenges. “There are thousands of streets in the city…which one should I choose to die?” It shows that 1900 is scared by the ever-changing world and he is too tired to choose. He thinks that he can’t adapt to the changes as “ th e world has passed me (him) by”. In addition, fame, fortune, girl can’t make him tread on land. 1900 chooses to die on the ship rather than getting off. It can be seen that how deeply he is afraid of changes. The marvelous life of 1900 makes him become the legend.Reflection:It's a simple movie, with a simple story and a simple main character - and thats what makes this film so good. It wasn't made to be great and big; it just want to tellthe story of a man who was left behind and raised in the Ocean. He never set foot on land and that's the only thing that makes him special. That and all its consequences. Visually the movie is beautiful and its a proof that special effects have nothing to do with a beautiful image - they are beautiful because you feel it. And it's a story that will make you want to meet the main character in person. The ending is wonderful and it's very well put (so hard to find a good ending these days). Tim Roth is excellent as 1900, but the two biggest actors in this movie are the "ship" and the "ocean". Both seem to have a life of their own. This is not only a movie that is worth to watch, it's a movie everybody should watch - it's the living proof that a moviedoesn't have to be great to be good. In fact, it can be excellent.。

The legend of 1900The society, the human beings, who is stronger? Who is weaker?Like The Shawshank Redemption, the legend of 1900 relates a story using the second perspective. But frankly speaking, the trumpet player is far from satisfactory than Red. That is not to say the play is terrible, it’s just because Morgan Freeman is so great that I almost consider the legend of 1900 as a plagiarized work when I saw it first.But when saw it in second time, the great skill of Tornatore, which is the ability to shape the roles vividly, become obvious. It is better to consider 1900 as a group of people, not a specific individual. Maybe it is a reason why the screenwriter doesn’t give him a name. Some people say 1900 is a reflection of the fate of artists. And their loneliness contributes to their artistic quality.1900, being adopted by a boiler man, is an abandoned infant. Unfortunately, his adoptive father died in an accident when 1900 is eight years old. On one hand, the immense talent makes him as a self-taught piano master. On the other hand, the fate also let him be deeply suspicious about the secular world. Even if meet a young girl he loved at the first sight, thinking over and over, he ultimately give up the impulse to find his first lover. Feeling that his fate is tied to the ship, 1900 cannot bring himself to leave the only home he has known. In the end, the Virginian blows up and sinks, with 1900 still aboard.This is an unreal marvel, a sentimental story, a genius interweaved with the ocean, steamboat, piano, land, loneliness and friendship. As the most European movies, the legend of 1900 also fills with an arm of insinuations. As an abandoned baby in the ship, a piano master in born, 1900 spent his whole life on the ship and never get off, strolling in the deck while other passengers are suffering from the seasickness. He can’t even get off the boat to looking for the woman he loved deeply. But what’s the key to understand these insinuations? There are a thousand Hamlets in a thousand people's eyes. From my own perspective it is the “choice”.The human beings are faced with the choice at all time. Each choice, big or small, decides the direction of our life. 1900 choose to stay in the boat, even all the passengers are sorely tempted to throw him overboard. He said: “Land is a ship too big for me.” He is anxious about the sense of no end, while the key of piano are not infinite, and that lets him relieved.In fact, when compared with the real world, the life of 1900 has somethingunreal. 1900 never contact piano before, but when he play it first, the beautiful music springs from his dexterous hands so naturally. Besides, how a person who never has the formal education can speak in so poetic language? And how he gets the food he needs to survive before Max finds him in that abandoned ship? However, the most controversial spot is the end of the movie: the hero’s conversation with Max. I really don’t agree with the 1900’s explanation why he doesn’t want to go off the ship at the very beginning, thinking he had a negative attitude towards life. But I finally understand the reason. Instead of playing the piano for others or for money, he desires to continue his love for piano in heaven, to play his own music.Just like the 1900, we all have our own world, and desire to live a so-called life in the demarcated safe zone. But can we? I still remember such words: “Take a piano. The keys begin, the keys end. You know there are eighty-eight of them, nobody can tell you any different. They are not infinite. You are infinite. And on these keys the music that you can make is infinite. I like that. That I can live by.” 1900 compresses his life into this side to another, then enlarges into the infinite music he can make on the only 88 keys.Now take the view from piano to the life itself. The freedom of society is infinite, but what a little pleasure can we enjoy from it? Life resembles a huddled adventure, so we are more prone to have a great admiration to these people who concentrate on a specific area always .Sometimes when be tortured by fate, resisting the change can offers us a sense of security. In other words, the human beings are may stronger than society if we can resist the extra temptation from the secular world. T hat’s what the movie want to tell us I think.哈尔滨工业大学航天学院。
Talking about a movieMost people like to watch movies. Maybe the plot is deeply moved, or it narrate a monstrous story. As far as am concered, my favorite move is the legend of 1900.This movie tell a man who is so brave that he can play the imagianry piano when exploded with the ship he was born, lived and died in. It is begin in first January 1900, ship crew Danni piked up a baby on the piano inside the hall of the ship and he named the baby 1900. 1900 grew up happily under the care and white lies of Danni.

Only a man like him can give up the first two bouts of a flight and beat the competitor entirely, convincing and potently in the last bout. Only a man like him can have such a beautiful story to tell. He is also a man never existed, never setfoot on land in his entire life. No ID, no visa, no parents, no birthday.

海上钢琴师英文总结English Answer:The legend of 1900, the pianist who was abandoned as a baby on an ocean liner and raised by the ship's crew, has been immortalized in the enchanting film "The Legend of 1900." Set against the backdrop of the 20th century's tumultuous events, the story unfolds through the reminiscences of Max Tooney, the ship's aging trumpet player and 1900's lifelong friend.1900 displays an extraordinary gift for music from a tender age. Despite having no formal training, hisintuitive touch and uncanny ability to improvise captivate all who hear him. As the ship sails across the Atlantic, 1900 becomes a legend among the passengers and crew, his music serving as a beacon of hope and solace amidst the chaos of the world.However, 1900's passion for music is intertwined with adeep-seated fear of disembarking the ship. He believes that if his feet touch land, his music will lose its magic and he will be confined to a life less extraordinary than the one he has built aboard the ship. This fear holds him captive, preventing him from experiencing the world beyond the confines of the ocean liner.As the years pass, 1900's life becomes inextricably linked to the rhythms of the ship, the ebb and flow of the ocean, and the faces of the passengers who briefly inhabit his musical world. Among these passengers is a beautiful woman named Betty, who becomes the object of 1900's affection. Despite their mutual attraction, Betty's life on land and 1900's life at sea keep them separated by an insurmountable obstacle.The arrival of the opulent ocean liner SS Virginian presents 1900 with an opportunity to confront his fears and finally step onto solid ground. Jazz legend Jelly Roll Morton challenges 1900 to a musical duel, an event that could propel 1900 to international acclaim. However, as the moment of truth approaches, 1900's fear consumes him. Herealizes that his music is not meant for the concert halls of the world but for the boundless expanse of the ocean.In a poignant climax, 1900 chooses to remain on the ship, bidding farewell to the possibility of fame and the love of his life. As the ship sinks into the depths of the ocean, 1900 and his music become one with the sea, his legend forever etched in the hearts of those who were touched by his extraordinary gift."The Legend of 1900" is a cinematic masterpiece that explores the themes of fear, isolation, and the indomitable spirit of the human soul. Through the unforgettable character of 1900, the film invites us to reflect on the choices we make and the sacrifices we are willing to endure to preserve the essence of who we are.中文回答:《海上钢琴师》英文概要。
