Similarly, when I saw "The Pianist", a movie that interprets the lonely beauty of artists, I thought of Andersen rather than "Amadeus". First, the actor who played the protagonist 1900 in this movie looks very much like Andersen, and I know it's just a coincidence; Second, Andersen's loneliness is closer to that of 1900; Third, the extremely fragile spiritual characteristics emitted by 1900 reached an unbelievable commonality with Andersen. He was a top-notch pianist, but only the people on the ship he lived on all his life knew about him; He was truly the son of the sea, spending his entire life at sea, never setting foot on land, and never touching the earth; His loneliness was fragile. One day in 1900, a white abandoned baby was found on the coal worker's ship where he worked, so he adopted him and named him 1900. For his birth, in the year 1900, on a giant liner traveling back and forth between Europe and America, in that Western world where the American dream was in full swing, everyone understood it. But no one could have predicted that this abandoned infant would be a musical genius.
