The story of a virtuoso piano player who lives his entire life aboard an ocean liner. Born and raised on the ship, 1900 (Tim Roth) learned about the outside world through interactions with passengers, never setting foot on land, even for the love of his life. Years later, the ship may be destroyed, and a former band member fears that 1900 may still be aboard, willing to go down with the ship.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

So crappy, so happy-go-clappy! Some directors should never direct. A Disney World tale in all its splendor.

This is a large story told in a very small way. I liked it a lot but I really wish it had covered more of 1900's life as a whole instead of just the snippets we got. I would have liked to have seen more of how he lived on the ship such as reactions of others to him and his role. The set direction is very good and all the roles were cast great. I liked the performances and over all I thought the movie was sound.Probably the most nicest, saddest, cutest movie I've watched in ages! i was pleasantly surprised by this movie i thought it would be an alrite movie but i thoroughly enjoyed this movie, its funny, great story line, well written, great cast, fantastic acting and includes Tim Roth looking hot and acting brilliantly!! the music soundtrack is also awesome and you can just fall in love with this movie! Its beautiful about an orphan who is left on a ship and taken in by one of the steam guys but after his unfortunate death Tim Roth gets into playing the oiano and becomes a sensation but hes never stepped of the boat and can he manage it when he falls in love?! Pruitt Taylor Vince tells the story of 1900 and revisits the ship but its about the blown up but is his friend still on the ship? A gorgeous movie completely worth a watch!!

An enchanting film which follows the extraordinary beautiful life of a talented musician, filmed with some wonderfully delightful shots, and backed by a stunning score, this is a fantastically delightful film. A story that knows how to stay completely true to itself and will leave you thoroughly invested, and paced as well as a fine piece of music it so eloquently models itself after.Tim Roth is amazing in this film, with a very good performance. Everyone else is quite good but he is the clear star here. This movie also had a number of memorable scenes, some of which will most definitely be remembered by me for a long time.

I do not have much to say. Just a few of simple opinion after witnessing this fascinating film. As far as I am concerned, 1900 and Max are just the same people, which I mean that Max has a WHO disease. In fact, there exist many clues that might leads to this conclusion. But it is just my first time to watch this movie. I think I need to review it more times and go deeper to this movie. I cannot forget the final scene where Max go straight into the fog and faded there. Just like Max said, "I don't know where to go when I set my foot on the land." Neither does Max. He cannot earn a living in the city, but as a matter of fact he was born in the city. How could he lost his ability? How could 1900 keep away from hunger? How could he keep himself tidy in such a massing ship? It is just Max's own imagination. I have to say so.
