In the Pianist, (based on true WW-2 story) Adrien Brody was great too, even if it was directed by the pervert Roman Polanski.
The Miracle of Marcelleno also known as Marcelleno, Pan a Vino is a post WWII movie about an Italian orphan and a monestary.
It is about a little boy who wants to find his mom.
Makes me cry everytime.
Agreed, great movie. IMO, Adrian Brody is one of the best contemporary actors out there.
