This film, although a tough one to stomach down, was a phenomenal historical masterpiece. Based on a Memoir by Wladyslaw (Waldek) Spilman, this film I feel did a great justice. It's groundedness & overall raw feel displayed this musician's story in a whole new light. I usually don't like reviewing historical media but this just had so many great elements to it.
