		The Legend of 1900 geeft ons een kijkje in de wereld van de pianovirtuoos 1900.
		Deze komt echter te weten dat The Virginian zal worden gesloopt en wetende dat 1900 nooit een voet aan wal heeft gezet...
		The Legend of 1900 vertelt ons dus de levensloop van 1900, een pianovirtuoos die geen afscheid kon nemen van zijn thuis, het schip The Virginian.

	The Legend of 1900
		The Legend of 1900 is an interesting new fable from legendary Italian filmmaker Guiseppe Tornatore, maker of Cinema Paradiso and The Star Maker.
		On January 1, 1900, a small baby boy was found abandoned on the Virginian, a transatlantic ship.
		Morton is irrationally jealous of 1900 and challenges him to a piano duel to determine the better player.

	THE LEGEND OF 1900
		As 1900 begins some late-night dabbling with the ship’s piano, we learn that he is a musical prodigy capable of performing the most intricate pieces.
		The incident helps to further the legend of 1900 on the mainland, while he is content to repeatedly make the trip from London to New York.
		The tune is improvised and hauntingly beautiful, but 1900 smashes the master to pieces as he can’t bear to have his music go anywhere without him.

	The Audio Revolution Review of 'Legend of 1900'
		As an adult, 1900 dazzles the passengers with his artistry at the piano, befriends and becomes musical partners with Max and even is (reluctantly) drawn into a jazz duel with the great Jelly Roll Morton (Clarence Williams III).
		Despite its twinkly intelligence and gentle appeal, ‘The Legend of 1900’ has some rough spots, the most notable being a climax that is not so much arguable (controversy is not necessarily a bad thing) as unheralded.
		Although 1900 seems to suffer from a particular kind of agoraphobia, he is shown to be far more passionate about music-making than about confined spaces.

		The Legend of 1900 Piano Man The Legend of 1900 (Best of 1999) I won't be surprised to soon hear female moviegoers professing to be madly in love with Tim Roth.
		1900 -- yes, that's a name -- is the kind of movie character with whom women fall madly in love, and infatuation like that invariably spills over onto the actor portraying him.
		1900 to everyone else, the child grows up in the bowels of the ship, surrounded by a large and loving surrogate family, making endless journeys between Europe and America, never leaving the ship and entirely unknown to the outside world.

	Filmtracks: The Legend of 1900 (Ennio Morricone)
		1900 has never set foot on land, and he makes a living as the ship's 'piano man,' entertaining the passengers with his remarkable gift at the keys.
		In some respects, 1900 is a showcase of American music spanning from the turn of the century to the 1930s.
		For 1900, the Sony Classical label backs Morricone's music with an unusually strong promotional campaign as far as score albums are concerned; the record label advertises the album alongside the film's theatrical, television, and radio trailers.

	Legend of 1900 - DVD Movie Central
		The main character, Danny Boodman T.D. Lemon 1900, or 1900 for short (played by Tim Roth), is found abandoned on board the ocean liner The Virginian by an engine room worker (Bill Nunn), who keeps him and gives him his name (based on the year of his birth).
		Cruises, by their very nature, are divorced from the mundane routine of day-to-day life, but The Legend of 1900 has a truly un-real feel to it.
		In terms of using scenery to enhance the emotional aspect of storytelling, The Legend of 1900 is pure magic.

	The Legend of 1900 Movie Review by Anthony Leong
		"The Legend of 1900" is the latest masterpiece from acclaimed director Giuseppe Tornatore, the man behind the Oscar-winning "Cinema Paradiso", marking his return to film-making after a four year absence (his last film was 1995's "The Star Maker").
		Based on the novel by Alessandro Baricco, "The Legend of 1900" is not only Tornatore's first English-language film, but it is probably his most ambitious film to date, a five-decade epic that takes place aboard the confines of a cruise ship.
		With "The Legend of 1900", Tornatore has prepared a sumptuous cinematic feast with an engaging story about an enigmatic character, told in a whimsical yet poignant manner.

	Review: The Legend of 1900 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The entire tale of The Legend of 1900 takes place aboard a cruise ship during the early decades of the 20th century, but this is no Titanic.
		As characters go, 1900 is a little underdeveloped, and no one else gets enough screen exposure to function as more than a secondary player.
		Those attending The Legend of 1900 with hopes of re-capturing the glory of Cinema Paradiso may be disappointed.

		I've seen TV commercials for cancer charities that are less melodramatic than "The Legend of 1900", and at least those schmaltzy ads have a purpose.
		1900 may be a genius, but as a person, he's an arrogant jerk who refused to try to achieve anything with his life.
		The only marginally exciting moment in "The Legend of 1900" comes when the title character has a piano duel with the inventor of jazz, Jelly Roll Morton (Clarence Williams III).

	DVD Savant Review: The Legend of 1900
		Young 1900 experiences the fantastic beauty of his beloved ocean liner with wide-open eyes, watching the elegant 1912 passengers through a stained-glass dividing wall that serves as a figurative time barrier into a bygone age.
		We don't learn much about 1900 except his relationship to the Virginia; he jealously guards his talent against challenges and even keeps his music from being heard on a recording, almost like a ghost who wants to be in control of his manifestations.
		1900 plays rhapsodically, and at one point hammering what appears to be an impossibly intense piece as if possessed or aided by powers greater than himself.

		Abandoned as an infant on the ocean liner Virginian, he is raised by an engine room worker (Bill Nunn); then when his working class "father" dies on the job, 1900 makes his living wearing a tux as the ship’s piano player.
		It’s there he meets a trumpet player (Pruitt Taylor Vince), whose central function is to appear 30 years later and tell The Legend, kicking off a series of flashbacks.
		If 1900 seems a metaphor for grand imagining and innate genius (how else does he learn to play?), he might just as well be an emblem of short-sightedness and fear of the unknown, the very stuff that nurtures prejudice.

		"The Legend of 1900" has a fantastic premise: A boy orphaned on an ocean liner makes a family of the crew, grows up to be a great piano player and experiences the outside world only through the ship's passengers -- 2,000 people at a time.
		The story, based on a monologue by Italian author Alessandro Baricco, is at once a fable about innocence and inspiration and a childlike fantasy lived out by adults.
		One night, the young 1900 sneaks out from the engine room and sees someone playing piano; pretty soon he's plinking pretty sonatas on the grand.

		We next see the boy, named 1900 to match his birthdate, discover an innate genius at piano playing, a genius so amazing that the captain of the ship is awakened in the middle of the night to hear this young Mozartean prodigy (who sounds more like Richard Claydermann).
		The grown-up 1900 (Tim Roth, who gets to give the best performance because his lines in the embarrassing script are so few) now has a reputation as a musician which goes beyond the ship.
		He tries to lure 1900 ashore, but 1900 says he is incapable of dealing with the vastness of a city and what lies beyond.

		It is here that 1900 goes with the flow, sometimes being literally moved by the ocean to create waves of music and stories, resulting in stark and startling imagery.

		Abandoned in first class by his immigrant parents, 1900 was found and adopted by Danny, a stoker, and raised in the engine rooms, learning to read by reading horseracing reports to his adoptive dad.
		Increasingly lured by the sound of the piano in the first-class ballroom, he eventually became a gifted pianist, a great jazz improvisationist, a composer of rich modern music inspired by his intense observation of the life around him, the stories passengers on all levels of the ship trusted him enough to tell.
		Max realizes that 1900 must still be on the ship, and determines to find him, and to find out once and for all why he has so consistently refused to leave.
