Gerard Depardieu - Chopin
on: February 05, 2006, 05:36:18 AM
Hello!
Someone knows who plays the Chopin's Nocturne op.48,1 in C minor in the movie "Mon pere ce heros" (1991) with Gerard Depardieu? (it should be written at the end of the film, in the credits)

I have never heard such wonderful Chopin before, I want to know who is that marvelous pianist.

Thanks a lot for any help!

It is Depardieu.

He plays it with his nose.

No, the credits say it's the late Alexis Weissenberg.

It was Gerard Depardieu 20 years ago, now it is Жерар Депардье.
