The Movie:

Excellent work, well done...
So this is a real movie huh? There's a lot of black keys on the piano... Must of been an xrated movie - lol - Hey your the one that said something about a sexual bond and black keys... Just watched Leatherheads with George Clooney - I wouldn't advise seeing it, but it was ok.
WOW! I am impressed by the image you've created and the story about it.
An excellent portrayal and a very dramatic composition to boot!
Super image Deanne. What was the name of the other movie they did down there? hehehe :) Don

Amazing movie and some of the most heart-wrenching piano music I've ever heard in my life, and I'm the daughter of a concert pianist. I bought the DVD then went and bought the soundtrack---it does wild things to my heart...gorgeous render and it couldn't be dedicated to a nicer person. :)

So diferent from your usual style still so incredibly beautiful and perfect. I could say it was 'The Piano' even before I saw the tittle. A splendid dedication!!!

I really like this one :) a lot!!!!!!!!!! wonderfull image :)
it makes us cry.. sad story never knew they made movies in that country other than the American Ring Saga and the Dutch movie Bride Flight with Rudger Hauwer Nieuw Zeeland is unknow to the people from Old Zeeland and the rest of our country.. perhaps that is good.. as no news is good news.. allll seems well between the coastlines of that island deep down under our feet
This reflects the mood of the movie perfectly and it reminds me of the movie poster itself! It's hard to say this within a gallery as fine as yours but I think this is one of your very best, Deane! I love it!
Excellent work!!!!!Great atmosphere......

A very nicely composed piece, the highlights from the lighting completely form the character and piano while they are still in shadow- a remarkable display of perfect lighting and a very imaginative work of art!
