About this product

Product Information

The story of an individual who is born and raised on a ship, learning about people and the outside world through interactions with the ship's rotating passengers, THE LEGEND OF 1900 comes from director Guiseppe Tornatore. When a deckhand, Boodman (Bill Nunn), discovers a newborn baby on January 1, 1900, he Christens him Danny Boodman T.D. Lemon 1900. A freak accident takes the life of the older Boodman, and 1900 (Tim Roth) is looked after by other members of the ship's crew. As he grows up, he learns to accept the crew as his family and the ship as his home. A glimpse of an individual playing a piano intrigues 1900, and before long he's a well-accomplished adult pianist. The legend reaches land and eventually earns 1900 visits from Jelly Roll Morton (Clarence Williams III) and a member of the music industry who wants to record him. The song that 1900 plays is dedicated to a beautiful young woman (Melanie Thierry) who threatens to lure him off the ship. Sheepishly, he stays. All of this is told in flashback, remembered by 1900's despondent friend Max (Pruitt Taylor Vince) as he prepares to pawn his trumpet. When he discovers that the ship is about to be sunk, he is convinced that 1900 is still on it somewhere and the frantic race is on to save his friend.

    An intellectual feast.

    The first time that I saw this movie I was totally mesmerized. The cinematography is magnificent. The musical score is stunning. The acting is brilliant. I have two copies on my shelf...just on the chance something happens to one of them. This is a great story that just fills the mind with the feeling of being visually rewarded. Anthony

    Big Budgets Is No Gaurantee

    Poorly written script not consistent with the time period of story. Special effects were over done, leaving the viewer with a sense of wonder rather than authenticity. The story itself was badly flawed with all sorts of impossible and improbable scenarios. And last but not least, the main character did not age on the screen although decades passed by. Very romanticized sentimental soap opera without any redeming message although lame attempts were made.

  • The Legend of 1900 (DVD, 2002)

    This is one of those movies that always seems to play on one of the obscure movie channels at 1:45AM or 6:00 on Monday morning. If you start to watch it, chances are you might change the channel. If you stick with it, you will really enjoy it. Tim Roth plays the lead role of, "Danny Boodman T.D. Lemons 1900"! "1900", as he is called was found on a Trans-Atlantic steamer shortly after arriving in New York on New Years day 1900; just another baby born on an immigrant ship and left behind because he has no papers. Danny Boodman, a engine room stoker is checking out the main ball room for any lost jewelery, money, or wallets. He finds a new-born baby and decides to keep him. Now, what should he name the baby? Why not Danny Boodman after himself? One of the other stokers suggests "1900" because ...

  • 1900 now sits on my favorites shelf

    It is seldom that I double back on a movie more than once. In the case of "The Legend of 1900" I liked this film so much I bought a copy on line an put it on the shelf with others that I like to watch over and over. Movies such as: "Out of Africa"; "The Bridges of Madison County", "Treasure of Sierra Madre" etc. Then I made the mistake of loaning it out. It never returned and I forgot where it went. After lamenting its loss, I bit the bullet, reordered it on line, and put it on the favorites shelf where it shall stay this time. The movie has the whole package--story plot, philosophy, great acting, incredible music and wonderful cinimatography. As another reviewer wrote, suspend belief, lean back and enjoy the ride. I give this 5-star film an ...

  • One of my favorite movies

    By far one of my most favorite movies that I can watch many time over. If you enjoy none mainstream movies, music, create stories, with no big headliners; this is the movie for you. I happened across it and was delighted with the story. Great movie to watch alone or with a loved one. This movie will inspire you to find the genius that exists in all of us. Best way to watch this one is to lower your expectations and let this movie take you away. Although I suck at music and can't read a note, I really enjoyed the movie which is a movie with music and a genius. Nothing like Amadeus, to me that was hard to watch. Remember setup a mellow mood, lower your expectations, and let yourself go. Enjoy - Eric
