* HOsenfeld was already awesome enough as it is in the film. But unbelievably the script downplays his RealLife counterpart. The film neglects to mention that he had made a habit of rescuing persecuted Poles, including Jews, long before he met Szpilman. For example, he sheltered a Jewish man who escaped from a train bound for Treblinka by giving him a false identity and [[RefugeInAudacity hiring him as a teacher for Wehrmacht soldiers interested in learning Polish]].

* Wladyslaw Szpilman, a Polish Jewish pianist in the WorldWarII movie ''The Pianist'', believes he has met his end when he encounters a German Captain Wilm Hosenfeld, but instead of killing him, Hosenfeld, upon discovering Szpilman is a pianist, asks him to play something on a nearby grand piano. Cue a beautiful playing of Chopin's Ballade in G minor in a desolate, war-torn, abandoned Warsaw. Hosenfeld is so impressed that he allows Szpilman to hide in the attic of that house, which is turned into a German command post, and secretly brings food to him, until the Germans evacuate the position from the liberating armies.
