Bravo 👏 David ❤❤❤❤

AUSTRALIA. DELETE. age 29 to 32.

He realized their dreams ....superb

This movie still captivates me and to this day there is 3 scenes I think are among the best ever filmed.

My own 2-cent movie analysis: Rachmaninoff's 3rd piano concerto is used extensively throughout this movie as a metaphor for David's mental/emotional state, and other clues are given as well. His professor says "no one's ever been mad enough to attempt the Rach 3" and David asks "am I mad enough professor?" The professer then gives a look as if to say "yes" LOL. He often runs while dropping his sheet music everywhere. He once walked up the stairs with no pants or underwear on. When he performs the cadenza for his teacher at the Royal College, he has trouble sticking with the notes and is scolded. He plays until the piano wire snaps-- a foreshadowing of David "snapping". When he finally performs the concerto we see here, the excerpts are played out of order, again hinting at his chaotic inner mental world. Look at the frenzied camerawork as David plays that crazy scherzo near the end. Finally David falls on stage... again, not LITERALLY happening since there is dead silence, no one in the background and no one rushing to his aid on stage, indicating this is all happening in his head just as the snapping piano wire foreshadowed. Much later after David performs the Flight of The Bumblebee in the tavern and is getting praise, you hear the triumphant arpeggios of Rach 3's 3rd movement playing in the background. Fantastic cinematography! I credit this movie with awakening my love of Rachmaninoff's music, especially this concerto, and classical music in general.

I thought this movie was about Glenn Gould

One of my favourite films of all time but I don’t understand what’s happening at 3:40 the piano notes sound modified.

Wonder how many piano players went crazy while playing Rachmaninoff.

Sounds like a Yamaha clavinova sample to ears. Anyone else agree?

This compostitions fills me with the same awe that re-listening to rachmaninoffs third … and thats saying something 🙏🏼

Scena iconica del film Shine in cui più di uno perde la testa . Dalla bellezza e dalla difficoltà. Uno spaccato inimitabile di umanità.

O pai apenas tinha o desejo de sempre protegê-lo, mas, como pais infelizmente não podemos Só Deus pode!

The rhytmic frenzy and breakneck pace in which this sequence happens is mesmerizing… makes you feel how David slowly unraveled from this titanic effort. Brilliant direction and acting, all around!! ❤❤❤

Perfection

You tube has so many great players of this; including Rachmaninov himself...I have a classical playlist with Anna Fedorova playing the 3rd and 2nd concertos I like to hear the 3rd first flowing right into the 2nd...They are such important pieces! Unparalleled in my more than a half century of being a musician and music lover...

WA and SA and VIC. 1982 to 2023.

Some pianists are "made" to be able to handle Rach 3. I'm not sure why some can and some cannot. It's not always technique. Artur Rubinstein never did it. Most people believe Rubinstein had plenty of enough technique to learn it. I think once Rubinstein was asked. I believe he replied that he was "too lazy" to put out the effort. I don't know if that is true. When Glenn Gould performed in Russia, many famous Russian pianists went to hear him play. Richter was one of them. Richter loved what Glenn could do. When asked about it, Richter was alleged to have said that: "He could probably learn to do what Glenn did, but was "unwilling" to put out the years of effort required to do it. Pianists like Helene Grimaud never did Rach 3, but did to Rach 2, which is much easier. Grimaud made a musical career out of both Brahm's concertos. I personally find the Brahm's much EASIER than Rach 3, and I have played all of them, but obviously never as a professional. David probably has an organic mental disease that has very little to do with his troubled relationship with his own father. I think David has no way to control his own reactions. Even by being medicated, which was a disaster for him. I think that David should be "left alone" to just react with people the way he feels, naturally. He obviously is not going to cause them any harm. David is still a great pianist but has some idiosyncrasies that separate him from the rest. In my opinion, David has EVERY RIGHT to do the music the way he wants. If he wanted to hug me, I would hug him back, just as much as he hugged me. Sanjosemike (no longer in CA) Retired surgeon

"No David, you're not going anywhere!"

You have to experience this movie. I watched it back in 1996 (or 1997) at FEST in Belgrade. I cried in the cinema after this scene.

Still in my top 10 movies.

3:40

BEAUTIFUL.¨!!!!!!!!!!

I wonder if this was filmed in the Wayville Pavilion of the Adelaide Showgrounds?

gdy dotyka serca muzyka to stajemy sie aniołami ze lzami w duszy

There's so much subtext to this scene. Believe it or not, my dad was even worse than David's, and I can feel all the emotions and rationalizations that have lead David to this very moment moment, to him playing the Rach 3 and his experience through it.

I have no idea Rafael Nadal plays piano so beautifully ....

Зачем вам музыка Рахманинова, он же РУССКИЙ ? Идиоты.

Everyone who is so incredibly moved by this piece played by Helfgott should listen to Horowitz or Rachmaninoff playing it. There are worlds between them.

Film navet pour journaleux italiens

I saw the movie Shine. It was wonderful. I felt sorry for the son and what he went through. I can't begin to imagine how difficult it was to have a father who was a tyrant.

Rush was terrific in this film, but this scene - Father and son - was also extraordinary.

th-cam.com/video/AapjpeqmviM/w-d-xo.html If you love this piece or want to, Olga Kerns performance is 42 minutes of intense passion and satisfaction to this masterpiece

The ossia cadenza was the focus here at 3:14.

Big respect. Seven hours a day every day: that isolation alone could drive a mind mad.

Film fantastico ....io adoro ❤️Rachmanino

What a spectacular performance by Noah Taylor.

Nice Rack <666 ȜȝȣȢͲӣΩTRUE

Giusto pensare ed essere sicuri che questo è l'apice del pianoforte e della musica classica

Exelso

THE BEST MOVIE I EVER SEEN

This scene breaks my heart every time

Simple yet highly charming melody in the beginning followed by one the most demanding passages piano repertoire has ever seen.
