Review of The Piano (1993) by Jonathan A — 27 Jul 2010
I absolutely hated this one. While some of the shots were beautiful, I couldn't connect with it at all and thought the story was poorly written, the characters were wooden and it had absolutely no personality whatsoever.
It really, really hasn't aged well and I don't understand why Holly Hunter won an Oscar for it, nor why Campion's screenplay did. That said, Anna Paquin does a great job and you can see quite clearly that she was going to become a huge star.
Her Oscar was deserved.
