The Accompanist sure is an interesting movie. All about a girl who takes on a role as a piano player for a famous diva. In return, she escapes from the somewhat lower class life she leads, playing for a woman who is married to a guy who has suspicious leanings towards the Nazi party, but they're forced to flee anyways.
So yes, what we have here is a hybrid of The Pianist and The Princess Diaries. The plot goes further then that, exploring the many courtship the Piano player and yes, the Diva has. They also have to deal with political pressures brought on by the war, and her husband who can't really do much except go into one shady business deal after another.
The performances here are great, with the standout being Elena Safonova as the diva herself. All eyes are on her in every scene she's in, and what A voice! Not too sure if it's her own voice though The rest of the cast is great as well.
Finally, did anyone else notice how this compares to the life of Celine Dion and her husband, Rene Angelil? Just wondering.
