if you love this, you MUST watch the video of "Let There Be Light "!!... it's a song by rock noir band BELLADONNA and MICHAEL NYMAN and it's based on this music from "The Piano". Michael Nyman himself plays piano on it... search for "belladonna nyman" here on youtube and you'll find it!! :-)
Incredible movie--one of my all-time favorites. This weekend saw 'Bright Star'--beautiful also...Jane Campion is an AMAZING writer/director...she portrays her characters and scenery so beautifully and hauntingly, it nearly hurts to watch...
i agree, she's a goddess. her movies are so raw, haunting, and feminine are good ways to describe her movies. The Piano and Bright Star are two of my favorite movies.
What is it with this movie? I think if you described the setup to me I'd think "Oh, that's a little precious, isn't it?" But instead it's just strange, and beautiful. Still holds up very well 15 years later.
There were tight ropes around the piano, but when the weight shifted, they decided to toss the piano overboard, which was tied up to tight ropes onto those planks. I think the sheet that she put her foot into to be dragged down into the water, was just a careless line that had snagged itself around one on the plank ends as they went into the drink. I love this movie...
I forgot about this part of the film. It reminds me of Hans Christian Andersen's Little Mermaid, although Ada had a second chance that the mermaid didn't.
Sometimes, whether driving to work, or laying awake in bed in the middle of the night, this scene 'appears' in my mind like it's carved in my brain...Haunting...
God, her voice is so adorable!!!!

I found this cd for £4.99 on Michael's own web site -- to buy go to MN Records dot com and it's available on the CD called 'The Piano'

I forgot why they threw the piano overboard? Wasn't this at the end of the movie?

Ada thought the piano had been damaged because it got jammed to the boat and requested that it be abandoned.
