Adrien Brody lost 14 kg for the role he is Still Haunted By ‘The Pianist’ After 15 Years “I was depressed for a year after ‘The Pianist,’” said Roman Polanski. “And I don’t suffer from that, generally. It wasn’t just a depression; it was a mourning. I was very disturbed by what I embraced [in making that film], and of the awareness that it opened up in me. But how much these things take from you changes project to project.” Adrien Brody became the youngest person to date to win an Academy Award for Best Actor when he won for this film at the age of 29.
