at ObiwanThis gut-wrenching Oscar-winning film follows pianist/composer Wladyslaw Szpilman (Adrien Brody) during the years of the Nazi occupation as he eludes deportation, choosing to remain in the devastated Warsaw Ghetto. Directed by Roman Polanski (himself a Holocaust survivor) and shot in Poland, the film is a grim view into the darkest depths of the Holocaust, portraying Szpilman not as a hero but simply as a survivor, emphasizing the role of luck that decided the fate of many of the Nazi's victims. Free popcorn. Free. 8pm. Obiwan (6617 3231)
