In this file "The Legend of 1900", Tim Roth played the role as an unknown pianoist on the vessel "Virginia". 1900 was born on this ship abandoned by his parents and
raised up by the ship crew. Through out his life, the ship was the only home he has known, and the world is too big for him to play with. Just like what he said, thousands of streets in front of me, and I don't know where I should go and live. His life and love story leaves sorrowfulness in my minds.
In the end of the story, Max (trumpet player, also 1900 good friend) was trying to lure 1900 out of the now-deserted hulk of the ship. Having served as a hospital ship and transport in World War II, she is scheduled to be scuttled and sunk far offshore.
Max attempted to get aboard the ship with the recording 1900 made long ago, and attempts to convince him to leave the ship, but he is too daunted by the size of the world. Feeling his fate is tied to the ship, he simply cannot bring himself to leave the only home he has known. In the end, it is assumed he has died with the Virginian as she blows up and sinks.
