    I think what the movie shows and what the ultimate lesson of Schindler's story is that Schindler wasn't a perfect man, he wasn't a paragon; he had his sins, however when ultimate evil was going on before his eyes he could not sit back and do nothing. In harsh times you don't have to be the perfect hero sometimes you have to do all that you can. Oscar Schindler didn't save everyone from the horrors of war, but he saved many. He saved enough to ensure that generations could go on to thrive. And, that is an ultimate good.

And when Spielberg approached composer John Williams, he told Spielberg that he was unworthy of composing for this film, to which Spielberg replied, "No, but those who are worthy are dead."

    Amon Goeth in this movie is reportedly tamer than the real one b/c the latter was so monstrous that he came off as almost unbelievable. The recent trend in writing villains is to make their motivations understandable. You'll hear lots of film enthusiasts preach that making a one-dimensional antagonist who's just evil for the sake of evil and only cares for money is the wrong way to go. It's almost as if this film is trying to give Amon a character arc regarding power & attraction, as well as attempting to provide answers as to why he is the way he is. Only for him to reject that exploration and immediately go back to the pleasure of violence. A reminder that monsters do exist in real life no matter if they're human.

    Easy. Most people would, given the right conditions. If you’re taught to hate someone else with what could appear as even a slightly good reason, even as a well-told lie, that’s a start. Compound that with telling people that they’re victims and have been oppressed, and taking revenge is righteous, etc. It’s not hard to create extremists who will kill their opposition, even torture their opposition, if they feel like they are in the right. The people you should be most concerned about are those who claims to be unable to do such evils, and also those who believes themselves to be the most righteous of their cause. Even in modern western politics people are actively dehumanizing eachother, and we’re only a few steps away from recreating the horrors of not even 100 years ago very soon. And it will come from people who say "I was just following orders", and those who refused to act. Evil prevails when people stand by and do nothing. There’s several nations *right now* talking about building camps to keep people in against their will. "It’s not the same!", people will say. I’m sure they said that in the 1920s and 30s too. Give it time and we’ll have another hell on earth, and at a much larger scale than ever before.

      They always say "It's not the same" and "You're not allowed to compare anything to the Holocaust" or "You're *trying* to be a victim" - These people do not think they can become like this, but they're human and propaganda is easily fell for.
      I already see people calling others things like "plague rats" and so much dehumanization. People don't think anything similar to this can happen again, but they're wrong. I may even have someone reply to my comment wondering who I am talking about because if they don't like who I'm talking about they can get offended that there's any sort of comparison regardless of historical parallels.

      I believe you are completely right. People are forgetting history. WWII history and the Holocaust are being forgotten, erased, if not outright changed. I really do believe we are headed in that direction. People think it can't happen in Western society, yet they forget that Germany was THE most advanced and progressive nation in the world before they fell under Nazism. What scares me the most is that no one will be spared. They WILL find a reason to keep you locked up, even if you do follow the rules. It's scary and horrifying how people can be divided into "us vs them" and how they can be brainwashed into seeing the other party as subhuman. They did it in WWII. They can, and are, doing it right now.

    • @LittleRedIrishRover
      @LittleRedIrishRover 2 года назад +8

      ​@@LadyBeyondTheWall I completely agree. They say those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it and it's happening right now before our very eyes. WWII and the Holocaust have been erased, forgotten and rewritten over the past decades and Western education is failing its people. I think people get upset over comparing what's going on now to what happened then, not because it's "offensive" or "insensitive" but because deep down inside they know it's the truth. I shouldn't have to tell people that some of my own family died in those camps to justify such a statement.

      @LethalOwl Well said. You're exactly right. I don't fear any one person, but I do fear that outcome. These things happened because it is in human nature to do so. If it wasn't, it wouldn't have happened. It's when society gets comfortable and forgets about history that they repeat it. Most of us take what we have for granted, so much so, that we don't think it needs to be protected.

      First of all, things were much worse than shown in the movie. The Göth in the movie was mild compared to the real one. Schindler on the other hand did much more than what was shown in the movie. In fact while there are inaccuracies, nothing that's shown is exaggerated. Schindler spent all the money he had and risked his life many times. He also traveled abroad secretly to meet Jewish organizations to inform them about the Holocaust.

      I am old, and grew up knowing people from that time. My dance teacher was a survivor of the Warsaw ghetto, her husband was a polish officer went into hiding and was a partisan he smuggled her out of the ghetto 3 months before it as liquidated. She lost her whole family, father mother two sisters and a brother he lost just as much. They both ended up captured in 1944 and had only been in the camps a month when the soviets liberated them. The people who lived next door to them were a lovely German couple, who were their age, the wife played the piano for our dance practices. As I grew up I mustered the courage one day to ask how they were friends, when Mr. Scharnhos (sp) was a german officer in the war. The two couples smiled and then gave me the best advice I have ever heard. "Hate eats you, fight it and fight the anger it brings". It was later I learned that Mr Sharnhos (sp) spent 1943-1945 in prison for refusing to shoot unarmed Ukrainian jews and for ordering his men to release them. His scars were not from the fighting they were from the torture he endured as a prisoner.
      In 1989 I was trained as a war crimes investigator and sent to Bosnia. I saw the camps and mass graves in Poland and Germany as part of my training, then went and saw new mass graves. Humans are evil and cruel, and vicious, yet there is also good. We must encourage the good, we must fight the hate, we must fight the anger or we become the monsters we fear.

    Its very interesting, the way the movie is shot with Oscar typically standing powerfully over the people he shares the scene with. It reflects the power and influence he has over people, and ultimately the power he uses to help others. But you see the contrast in the ending scene when he falls down to his knees, the symbolism there is great. The once proud and powerful, brought low by the tragedy and the humanity he has witnessed. Such a great and masterfully shot and acted film.

    I watched this movie for my history and English class because we were learning about WW2. We had to get permission slips signed by parents in order to watch the movie by in class and it was always emotionally heavy once class was over. We then had a field trip to the Museum of Tolerance in L.A.(I live in San Diego). You’re given a card of a child and throughout the tour you found information about the child and at the end you find out if the child on your card survived or not. Mine didn’t. She was 3 or 4 years old and she died in the gas chambers.

    I noticed you kept wondering if Schindler was a good guy or bad guy. It's not that simple in real life. He started out not really caring about other people, then gradually discovered new depths to his humanity. You were wondering when and how Schindler would betray the Nazis. It's not that simple in real life. Sometimes all you can do is endure and outlast the evil, instead of "defeating" it.

    I did a report on O.Schindler in my Graduate Criminal Psychology block. My end results was that its was very cross of unfortunate events for a business man to get personal with his employees during wartime. There is very little to unpack in his decisions as it was always "THE RIGHT THING TO DO", but with his business credibility behind it. This paper i did actually made me happy and excited examining a "criminal mind", but in all honesty he should not be charged under the Geneva Conventions.

    Thank you for reacting to this movie! It is so important to remember those horrible times and make sure that they would not come back again!! We are all human beings and what happened in the Second World War was beyond cruel...

    This movie should be mandatory watch in ALL high schools. There are young people today who don’t know what the Holocaust was or worse, they don’t believe it happened. They should all watch this so they see what humans are capable of doing to each other. What is still happening in some countries. We can’t forget.

      Yes! This is why I’m glad the theaters for its 25th anniversary reissue in 2018 truly deserve to be sardine tins of teens!

    When the real Helen Hirsch met the actor of Amon Goetz at the academy award she broke down in tears. He reminded her so much of the real Goetz.

    "How could anyone do this to another human being?"
    Some answered that question here very good, so I would like to add something else to this:
    In 2008, a german Movie was released, called "Die Welle" (The Wave).
    This film is about a teacher who deals with the subject of National Socialism and the Second World War with his students. The students claim that in our modern and enlightened society something like this could never happen again. The teacher then decides to start an experiment.
    Everyone has to dress the same, have to adhere to the same rules (whoever is asked something has to stand while speaking and should give short and concise answers, for example), the seating arrangement is changed and people should walk in lockstep.
    At the beginning everything goes well, the students seem more motivated by the newly introduced discipline, they write better grades, they perform better in sport. The word gets around in the school and more and more students are taking part. At some point there will be a vote on what this movement should be called. It is voted democratically and the movement is henceforth called "The Wave".
    As can be expected, the students who belong to the "wave" start to insult other students if they do not want to join or are even against it.
    All this is reflected so high that at some point the teacher realizes that his experiment went terribly wrong and he wants to end it. This leads to the fact that the students do not want to give up their beloved "wave", protest against it and insult their teacher as "traitor". One student (who was previously an absolute outsider) goes crazy in particular. This student has appointed himself the top bodyguard of the teacher (the teacher was not enthusiastic about it at first, but let it go because he knows the family background of the student). He draws a pistol, shoots a student and threatens the teacher with the pistol. When the teacher has almost managed to get the student to put down the gun, the latter reveals that the wave is his purpose in life and then the student shoots himself.
    The teacher is then taken away by the police.

      Also very good / scary is "the Stanford prison experiment" A Psychotherapist (Professor Philipp Zimbardo) in the 1970s wanted to proof his theory of people behaving in certin ways if you devide them into a group with power and a group of "inmates". So he took his psychology students, went to an empty building somewhere on the University-grounds and said we will stay the week here. half of you will be prisonguards and the other half will be inmates and this building will be our "prison" after 2 days!! the inmates were humiliated and beaten and everyone inside the building was believing the prison story, including the Professor! After 6 days, his fellow professors noticed something was wrong. When asked to stop, he screamed "NOT NOW IM RUNNING A PRISON!" His fellow professors where in shock, how quickly all went wrong. After stopping the experiment, on day 7, It became a horrible example of "How power and circumstances WILL trick the mind"

      @@thomasnieswandt8805 Heard about that. It's just insane. I think "Die Welle" is kind of based on the Stanford Prison experiment as well. It's just scary if you think of it.
      I just remembered that there is a german movie which is called "Das Experiment" and it is actually about that.

    Depression. Guilt. Suffering. Even if those horrors haven't done to us presently we still have to learn what is past so we could act immediately.

    I saw this when it first came out in the movie theater. I was 17 I think? I remember that the whole theater was quiet and by the end everyone was crying. I think everyone should see it at least once. Such a powerful movie.
