Schindler's List: A Cinemaic

The images it shows makes us really feel the hardships of what they faced in the concentration camps. And it really focused on the time spent in the camps with the brutality of the guards, also with the persecution of the

For example, he succeed his first quest for riches, but at the end of the war, he spent everything he made, and managed to save 1,300 Jewish men and women lives. Not too long after his factory, which produced enamels goods and munitions, Schindler's Jewish accountant put him in touch with some of the few Jews that has any remaining wealth. Furthermore, they invested in his factory, and in return, they would be able to work there and hopefully be spared. He was persuaded to hire more Jewish workers for his factory to pay off the Nazis so they would allow them to stay in

I learned that Nazi Germany were so heartless that they would separate their own families to even make the matter worse. “All the skilled workers had already been sent to other camps”(46). This made me realize that the strong, Jews, were more likely to live than the weak ones. The weak, old Jews didn’t have a choice, but to die. “On the other hand, the dentist seemed more conscientious: he asked me to open my mouth wide.

Oskar Schindler was a factory owner during the Holocaust and he was also a participant in the Nazi party. Although he was a member of the Nazi party, Schindler grew to care and later save the Jews that worked in his factory. These Jews were later referred to as “Schindler Jews” because he saved over 1000 Jews. There are many ways that Schindler was depicted, some kind and others not so kind. In the movie, “Schindler's List”, Schindler is seen as a hero for helping and saving Jews, which is the right way to picture him as.

After watching the documentary I think you really get a sense of how horrific the Holocaust was. I mean we always learn about it in school, but it is usually through textbooks and primary source documents. We learn about the atrocities; however the American educational system touches upon it lightly. Ultimately, Americans only get a small idea of what the Holocaust was especially to the Jewish people. We learn so much about the Holocaust, but not about who lived by it.

I now have a added perspective of how horrible this time in history was. People did anything so they would not have to be sent away to the concentration camps where there was a good chance that they would be killed. For example, one scene in the movie showed children hiding in the outhouse, so they would not be taken away like the rest of the children. The Jewish people should not have been treated likes this, but it is important that future generations learn about what happened. This will be helpful in stopping this from happening ever again.

This documentary is one of the toughest videos to ever watch. It shows the more than dreadful images of prisoners, and the horrid conditions that they endured. Images sometimes were more tough to swallow than others, words were more touching than some, but more than anything the pain in the prisoner's eyes is what set the feeling of pure terror in someone's heart. One piece of evidence collected from this documentary is the camps were made specifically for the Jews which later lead to the Jews being completely wiped out. This premeditated action of making the concentration camps was so disturbing that it lead to the holocaust killings over 11 million innocent lives.

This was a really fine written book, showing a great deal of value in remembering the past and the importance of family. And the movie was portrayed extremely accomplished, even though there were alterations that I didn’t appreciate. In my opinion, the book was superior over the movie, describing in depth the suffering and sadness in the camp effectively, which the movie did not, and developing the characters in a suitable way. I would recommend this to anyone who delights in history along with fiction. It contains the reality of the holocaust while including fictional characters and plot lines.

In the story, “Night” there are many different themes established. The one that stood out the most was freedom and confinement. The Jewish people were stripped of their freedom; the Nazi’s were forcing them to go to death camps and ghettos. The Jews never got to see freedom unless they survived the horrific event.

People’s lives were changed in the Holocaust, they had bad living situations, work that you hardly got a break from, and transportation that if you couldn’t continue something horrible would happen. Jews had gone from having a decent life to having the worst life you could possibly imagine, all

Schindler did some very bad things in the beginning, he used slave labor for his profit and he schmoozed many people for his benefit. Though near the end he still schmoozed to get what he wanted, now it was for the benefit of the Jews that he was saving. Schindler change of character and attitude saved 1200 Jews. Schindler changed a lot and because of that many generations of the jews he saved lived

Without the fear of being afraid of the camp at first arrival or the fear of the Jew not eating because they know they will be killed, there wouldn’t be much hope. This proves the point on why fear overpowers people and make them not do what they would normally due since there life is at risk. This truly shows the bad of the holocaust. Due to all the fear no one could stand up to

They noticed roll call was taking longer than normal but then a man was brought up in front of them of them and hung. The German’s wanted to strike fear in the Jews. They made everyone walk right in front of the hung man and look him in the face. Many of the men almost couldn’t do it. The beatings had continued and the men were losing faith in everything.

Throughout Schindler’s List by Steven Spielberg, Oskar Schindler’s character has changed drastically. At the beginning of World War II, Schindler was a womanizing, selfish and manipulative man. After seeing the process that he watched the Jews go through, he realizes the way the Nazis have treated them is unacceptable. Towards the end of the war Schindler has grown due to the experiences he has been through. These experiences have made him a decent, unselfish, and manipulative man.

People to this day still find horror and beauty in this film, finding this film an extraordinary masterpiece executed by director, Steven Spielberg. Some people do disagree with the images shown in the film, however, as a whole, the entire community who thoroughly enjoys films agree the accuracy of this film that did not hold back any viewing content truly added greatly to the film. Perhaps the most touching reaction came from the place where it all started. The premiere of Schindler’s List in Germany with a room filled with 800 people – Germans and Jews, diplomats and artists, film makers and people who had known Oskar Schindler when he lived there (Whitney, 1994).
