Review
Geoffrey Rush won a much deserved Oscar for his portrayal of Aussie pianist David Helfgott. A dazzling drama, following David's rejection by his dad after enrolling at London's Royal College of Music, his subsequent descent into madness and the touching love affair which would be his redemption.
