@RODRIGUEZ SANCHEZ Holy shit man. Why so twisted? Lots of people cry at the movies, especially this one. Tell me why shallow people like you are so judgemental? Go find a heart
@RODRIGUEZ SANCHEZ Everyone thinks you're cool man. You're a real badass.
US citizen here, Libertarian/Freedom minded. I look at a country like Australia and I hope others are too, that right there are the first crackdowns in a regime capable of pulling off a second holocaust, or some other atrocity (ies)
"Список Шиндлера" смотрел 2 раза - сильный фильм , до слёз. Хотя мы так и не знаем, как было на самом деле...
# the homies do a reaction video to

The film is on RUclips
I remember walking out of the cinema to almost complete silence, save for the sound of men crying...
I know. It was quiet as a funeral

this sentiment isn't something new.
@@wrathofgrothendieck sionist!

Why Liam Nessen didn't win an Oscar for this is far beyond me. This movie's end ALWAYS makes me weep.
Philadelphia is equally powerful. It’s a shame they both appeared at the same time because they are both important. People still hate LGBTQ+ people. It’s not like this horrific Holocaust but it’s still important
I agree that his performance was stunning but he was up against Tom Hanks in "Philadelphia" and his performance was amazing in that film, touching a topic that had never been touched. I imagine it was a very close call and as much has I feel absorbed by Neeson's performance, I do believe Hanks deserved to win.
@@happyexpat3744 yeah I find it hard to pick. Joint win?!
@@Angelicwings1 A joint win...is perfect. Cooperation is the way things get done as far as I am concerned. They are both, in fact, winners to me and for many of the same reasons. Cheers!
Should’ve won an Oskar
“One more person, I could have saved one more person and I didn’t...and I didn’t!” That part always make me cry, it’s so powerful! Thanks for not letting me weep alone.
I too get very emotional during that scene. This is why I watched this video, I wanted her to join us.
Schindler’s list is the only movie that no matter how many times I watch it, be it months apart or in consecutive days, I am always emotional as if it’s my 1st time. May we never see this type of evil again.
Sadly, maybe not on this scale and not o Jews, but horrendous atrocities similar to this have happened many times since.
@@jasonrist6582 yeah, I know the Genocide Rwanda is a great example of that. Maybe one day. We can hope.

Fun fact: John Williams said as he took a prize for his music that when he was told to write music for this he said. "You need a much better composer than me." And Steven Spielberg answered "I know. But they are all already dead"
One of my favourite John Williams tidbits. He even mentioned this at his AFI lifetime achievement award speech haha.
@@cjbrett89 right, I forgot where exatly I heard him say this but now I remember that it is the AFI lifetime achievement award he got. thanks man
Beautiful and sad.
This girl better not ever look at concentration camp footage
@@leonardlarrisey7525 especially when they begin to bulldoze the piles of bodies in the trench. All were skin and bones women, men and kids.
Absolute insanity what happened.
I remember when they play this movie in cinema, in Poland. I was 13 years old and premier was during middle of the week and I was too young to see this movie but I skip school and went anyway. Next day my head teacher ask me, why I wasn't present. I got up and I said that I sneaked away from school to watch "Schindler's List" and my parents don't know about that. She answered "Okay, I understand". She said nothing to my parents.
You were brave to see that. I have respect for you.
She knew the importance of what you witnessed out weighed any punishment
In germany it was mandatory in most schools for pupils above 12 years to watch it in cinema. I was 15 and kind of prepared, because I visited Auschwitz before. But I remember a lot of crying 6 graders leaving the cinema.
@@markusl2391 can confirm, we had to watch it in politics class when i was 12
First time I saw this movie was in school. But before we watched it we read the book.
This is one of the most powerful movies in human history. Everybody needs to watch this.
Recently, I realize this movie was the inspiration for next films about Second World War, like La vita e bella, The Pianist, etc.
watch more films
I have watched it at least once a year, every year, since it came out. I had Romanian family who ended their lives in one of those camps... no survivors.
Yeas in cinematic point of view
the history of the shindler character is as distorted as that of the USSR
He was drunked dirty nazi, seriously and to this day he is called as a war criminal
I feel like there is a lot of brainwashing in the US political system in both parties and ts scares the hell out of me...
I lived in Germany when this came out in the theaters, and even though I was still learning German at the time, I went to go see it at the theaters. The audience was entirely silent during the whole movie. I was bawling my eyes out and trying to be as quiet about it as possible. When the movie was over everybody got up in entire silence and walked out as if it was a funeral service. The German audience seemed absolutely stunned by the emotional impact of it. I saw a lot of things during the time I lived there, and that audience is something I’ll never forget.
Ja, hier war absolute Stille in den Kinos und als der Film vorbei war, waren alle so ehrfürchtig, dass niemand aufgestanden ist. Ein Meisterwerk und ein Mahnmal!
The Shoah is taught to EVERY German student. The German gov't has placed plaques on the sidewalk in front of homes where Jewish families were forcibly removed by the SS/Gestapo. They also have posted signs in cities around Germany from the 30s and the 40s. It's truly humbling to see. And that's why Germans are so reticent to engage in nationalism. They know where it can lead.
What makes this movie so special is that the entire cast & crew refused to be paid for making it. Spielberg said in a interview that they all saw taking payment as equal to taking ‘blood money’, instead, everyone pooled together what they earned and founded the USC Shoah Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicating into preserving the accounts of both survivors and victims and provide them for educational purposes. Thanks to this film, there was a drastic spike of education programs in the US dedicating into teaching all generations of what the Holocaust was.
Also, the fact that Oskar Schindler is the ONLY Nazi to buried on Mt. Zion, the most sacred ground in the Jewish faith speaks volumes of how truly amazing and noble-hearted his deeds and efforts were. Thank you Oskar, because of you, over 6,000 and counting people live because of what you did.
And Spielberg had written I. His contract that all future residuals go to the charity forever
I never knew about the first paragraph; I am truly humbled by their actions.
Well, he is partly the only Nazi buried there because usually Germans who have been honored as "Righteous Among the Nations" (638) are buried in their home land, and yes, there were a few who were originally affiliated with the Nazis under them. Not to play down what Oskar Schindler did, but he was hardly unique, a lot of people did what they could, and some had the power to do more than others.
the entire cast & crew refused to be paid?
Or only Steven Spielberg gave the royalties and residuals from the movie to the foundation?
That seems absurd! They are not "artists" like Steven, that they could give their living wage for a cause, they are workers.
They didn't get paid for their job?
I thought only Spielberg did that

I watched this in the theatre on a cold Monday afternoon in Winnipeg. My buddy and I were 22, and as we tried to wipe away our tears out in the lobby, a number of elderly people came by and gently smiled and patted us on the shoulder.
Such an important movie.
Shortly after Ohrdruf was liberated. General Patton took a tour of the camp. He was so disturbed by what he saw that he ordered his men to collect the people from the nearby city and the countryside. He then forced them to walk through the camp. He said "There is no way they can ignore what happened any longer.".
I believe Eisenhower did the same with Buchenwald. I watched the film of that. I've studied the Holocaust since I saw this movie & Escape from Sobibor in 8th grade (1993). It's why I'm convinced our country (USA) is definitely in the Weimar Republic phase right now. When they devalue our petro-dollar, we'll be screwed. Bush/Obama/Trump/Biden? Same Sick Sh*t, Different Decade. We're the 4th Reich. Heil POTUS.
@@goldilox369 All empires fall, most fall the same way. The powerful grow decadent and export the nation's wealth in return for luxuries, people abandon the cultural unity that held them together, citizens abandon their loyalty to their nation, factions start squabbling, and when someone new and hungry comes to seize power (usually from the outside) they are unwilling or unable to fight back. So went the Greeks, the Macedonians, the Romans, the Byzantines... China on several different occasions... we are no different.
I also heard that story about several camps, like Auschwitz, Birkenau etc.

The movie is painful in its entirety, but this line truly makes it sink in.
it was even super hard for steven spielberg to direct it he had to make a personal call to robin Williams every week to cheer him up and robin knew how hard it was for him
Every time for me as well.
@Heather Stephens from what i heard yes at the time speilberg was filming this yes.. robin knew just HOW important this movie was to be filmed for steven which was why he was used to stevens calls every week.
at least thats what i heard
@@mrgoob76 Good old Robin. He is sadly missed.
That scene is one of two in all of the movies I have ever seen that makes me cry.
I'm a 59 year old man from the UK & I've been through some shit in my life which has made me tough, but this movie had me crying my eyes out the whole time. What I will say is that my dad fought in the war & he found that most of the regular German soldiers didn't like the Nazis either. In fact he kept in touch with a German sergeant after the war until the guy died only ten years ago.
It's crazy to think that this was so recent that people are still alive who went through this
And Germany still runs Europe...
@@diadoofmand5423 !
@@diadoofmand5423 Germany almost destroyed whole continent twice in 20th century and yet they're still running EU. I think that's pretty interesting.
You do know this Germany is different from then? We try to make sure this will never ever happen again. Would you rather have Hungary as the Leader with fascist Orban? Or crazy Erdogan? Or maybe an outright fascist in the near future in France, if Marine le Pen should prevail over Macron? I would think about it twice.
@@gemselchen You're trying to make up for holocaust by importing millions of jew's number one emies into Europe. Attacks against jews sky rocketed since 2015 especially in France and Germany. I wonder why ??? Thousands of french jews actually moved to Israel because of attacks against them. Im sorry but you are probably nation which shouldn't ever run anything again because everytime you do - whole continent is in risk. And BTW wasn't the whole EU project kinda created not to have one nation ruling everything. Can't you just make quality cars and enjoy your prosperity?
The man who lays the rose on the grave, is Liam Neeson.
He did not win best actor that year... just wow...
@@karlwarner7401 Who did then?
@@user-io7fp5jv5i I think it was Tom Hanks for "Philadelphia". Good movie, and Tom Hanks is an awesome actor... But Neeson should have won!
@@optimusprowse6448 Oscars are about the subject matter, what is flavour of the month. Another year Neeson would have won, though I am not keen on him myself and prefer Hanks.
No it’s not, it’s Steven Spielberg
Whenever I watch Schindler's List I cycle through the same emotions - horror, despair, rage, and finally at the end, hope.
Some people try to make others feel bad so they can feel good
My cycle is Sadness, Anger, pain. I try not to get mad. my poor hand are better for it.
I shudder to think how many people think of this time period as ancient history, if they think about it at all. My father was a decorated WWII veteran-- many, many of us alive today had fathers, grandfathers who fought in that war in the hope that nothing like the Holocaust could ever happen again. As much as I miss my father, I'm relieved he isn't alive today to see the state of the world. Everyone should have the good sense and courage to watch this movie, and to know history so we don't continue to be doomed to repeat this evil over and over again. Heartbreaking to watch you watch this, but thank you for doing so.
This film should be a mandatory watch for EVERYONE! You have a soul.
I agree,I also feel the same about American History X! I'm white and English but other than Trainspotting these were the two powerful films of the '90s!
@@staceyenglish8936 come and see is another powerful movie that needs watching
My grandfather left krakow in 1936, but all of his family, 6 siblings and parents were murdered there. So when Schindler says that he could have saved more people it gets me, because one of those extra people could have been one of my grandfather's family members
I am so very sorry your family went through this.
Same my great grandfather's siblings have been murdered too I think 6 of them its very sad something like this happen 😞😭
Wadubwqdu
My grandfather died in the concentration camp of Dachau, only a few weeks before it shut down. On the day of his death, German guards shot loads and loads of lead into the busy parade ground, killing at least 25 prisoners. The backlash from my grandfather's rifle made him slip over the railing of his guard tower and he plummeted to his death. 😟
❤❤❤❤❤I am so sorry you and your family had to go through that. I celebrate your stranght and lives❤
I don’t care how many people talk shit about Spielberg. He’s among the 5 greatest directors alive.
Even the ones that aren't a fan of him, cannot dislike Schindler's List. It is an undeniable masterpiece.
Never heard anyone dislikeing Spielberg. If there is one person not liking his work.. that person is a lier. Spielberg is a master in the arts of film.
Arguably he is the greatest because he is the most versatile of them.
I don't care for most of his films, they're just not my style. But there's no doubt he's a great filmmaker and this film in particular is a masterpiece by any measure one might care to apply.
No doubt.
Everybody is impressed with Liam Neeson and I do agree he is good, but I think Ralph Fiennes should get special mention. He plays the psychopath Amon Goeth perfectly. I actually believe he is the psychotic killer he is portraying.
Wym most people agree Ralph gave the best performance in the film
In real life, I heard that Goeth was even more ruthless. However, I also heard that Ralph Fiennes played the part so evilishly well that he gave some PTSD to the other actors.
For a year or two after this movie came out, I couldn't hardly stand to see Ralph Fiennes in any movie because I'd just see Amon Goeth. I eventually got past it, but it was very disturbing just how perfectly he nailed even the cold, dead eye look.
@@Gaba-oo4qb it was one of the women who had been subjected to the real Amon Goeth… she had a panic attack seeing him in character
@@Waterlily2544 yes, like others said, for a long time I couldn't watch Ralph Fiennes without feeling physically sick. That's how good he was.
the fact that you are moved so much by this film, show's that you are a caring loving human beign
It's my belief that every secondary school pupil should see this, so it's never forgotten.
As early they learn the better. Everyone should know, kids too, that the world is cruel and you cant do anything about it. Life is fight; happyness does not exist; never create expectative, so you will never care about it; help others and never, never, expect a "thanks". Do what need to be done, and move foward. As soon you learn about this you will feel free and will have a good life.
@@alissonlares2926 The world is not ALWAYS cruel, and happiness exists. Just not proportionally. Keep fighting the GOOD fight....you're right.
Weve seen this film at school. We could go home after talking about the film with our teacher. We had to stop school for the rest of the day
Agreed. Along with American History X
Couldn't agree more!
"Even the smallest evil, we should fight." Ellie, that was a quote worthy of this film.
When I was in high school during our junior year the entire class spent one day watching this movie. It was a class requirement. The school wanted us to make sure we never would forget about the Holocaust. Also, in middle school we had Holocaust survivors come and speak to us. Their stories I'll never forget.
Thank you, Ellie. If everyone had one-tenth of your compassion, the world would be a lot less scary place. Pax.
Another movie that is of this emotional caliber and about the Holocaust is “The Pianist”. It’s about Wladyslaw Szpilman, who somehow survived the entire war in Warsaw, which went through hell.
The Pianist is another one about The Holocaust that is a must.
And is directed by a Holocaust survivor, Roman Polanski. He won his well deserved Best Director Oscar for it.
I beg to differ. Spielberg at least made an entertaining movie, Pianist is plainly boring.
"I fear many in America are now waking up to the fact, as we did in Germany, that 1/3 of your countryman would gladly murder another 1/3, while the last third would just watch." -Werner Herzog
And we call those people Democrats.
and it goes both ways. the right despises the left. the left abhors the right. any time someone can justify why a group of people should not exist - be they communists or nazis or your choice of enthnicities, you've got the conditions for things like this to happen. paint ANYONE as less than human and the conditions have already begun.
nazis killed a lot of people. commies killed more. extremes of left and right both end in tragedy.
Not with 300 million firearms in the hands of private citizens.
@@Tom-qp6oh That's what they'd use
@@YourLoyalDeserter These genocides never happen against an armed populace. In Nazi Germany, Soviet Union, they always enact gun control first. When gun control/confiscation happens is when we know genocide is Next! The 300 million guns is the only reason America is still free.
Thing to note: most/every time you hear a violin being played, its being played by Itzhak Perlman (a virtuosic classical violinist and considered to be one of the greatest). He is actually Jewish (or of Jewish descent), so each note was played with as much passion and meaning as possible.
The scene where they are playing music and everyone is naked and being sorted for work supposedly had the entire film crew in tears.
This is why we need to quit trying to erase the past. We need to instead preserve it so that we can learn from it and never repeat those mistakes again. This should actually be required watching for every history class in my opinion. Also, it touches me every single time I see it.
Erase in what fashion? No one has forgotten the Nazis (or other groups). It's idolizing that has no place.
@@illerac84 - There is a vast difference between idolizing and memorializing.
bla bla bla bla , USA , china and russia kill more people since 1945 than any other country in human history.
Yeah but you certainly don’t honor the past such has erecting statues and such,
What history is being erased, give me some examples and we can talk about it.
"Essential worker" takes on new meaning after watching this movie.
I've never looked on the word productive the same way since my father explained that my grandfather set up a factory in his ghetto and got permission from the German Army to do so saying that he was just making sure that the Jews would be productive.
I know right. My job was considered nonessential in this planneddemic. My mind went to that scene in this movie. "What do you mean non essential"?
I made a gut check and continued my business.
This movie is for eternity. Perhaps one of the most important movies Hollywood ever made. It's far beyond art. It's a monument against forgetting.
"If I had made more money. I threw away so much money. You have no idea..."
Oskar's self-crucification, after he was responsible for saving the lives of so many people reduced audiences to floods of tears. A truly magnificent film.
Ralph Fiennes was terrifyingly amazing in this. Must have been so hard for him to portray the worst of human beings.
The amazing part is if you look up the history of the person he portrayed (the camp Commandant), you realized they toned down his cruelty for the movie. To give an idea, his character was fired from the SS for excessive cruelty
@@toddkes5890 u seen him looking down at the camp with a cigarette in his mouth, and a rifle over his left shoulder, probably ready to shoot a random worker down there!
They brought actual survivors onto set to witness and help with authenticity,
Fiennes looked so much like the real Amon Goethe that he nearly gave them a heart attack.
@@mckenzie.latham91 LMAO
He wasn't fired because of his cruelty, the cruelty was by design. He got arrested for corruption. The Nazis thought of themselves as heroes for being capable to kill so many people (which they thought was absolutely necessary) without being corrupted. It's an utterly insane line of thinking. Killing millions was fine, enriching themselves while doing it however was seen as bad by Himmler and other leaders. Of course it still happened constantly and only a couple of people who were too open about it got punished. And of course robbing the Jews before killing them was basically state policy. Nazi ideology just makes no sense whatsoever.
And yeah, they toned Göth down for the movie. Barely a day went by without him killing someone in all sorts of ways. He made daily tours through the camp, randomly shooting people or having them torn apart by dogs. I recommend reading Mietek Pemper's book about it, he was one of the two characters apart from Stern himself that Itzhak Stern's character is based on. He was Göth's secretary and he was very important for the whole rescue operation because he risked his life on a daily basis getting important information from Göth's office.
My god whoever recommended this is cruel. Ellie cried at the Matrix! That being said, this is perhaps the most powerful and important film that's ever been made and one that everyone should watch.
Yes it’s very important. Because history tends to repeat itself. But I’m curious if the Holocaust is taught in schools today. Because Ellie’s reaction is like she just found out about it through the movie.
You have to see it though. It wrecks you for days afterwards but you still have to watch this movie. Seeing the footage of the real people from the list visiting the grave of the only member of the Nazi party to be buried on Mt Zion, Jerusalem definitely hits hard.
Speaking as a Jew who was in fear for my life while traveling through the south of the US with my parents in the 1960s (because of a recent lynching), yes, this is vitally important. I witnessed a race riot in front of my house while I was growing up in suburban New York. I met a fellow student at a university summer program who bragged that he would prove to his father that he was not afraid of killing 'n*****s'. This is humanity, for better and for worse. And the more we forget, the more we tend to tolerate evil.
Unfortunately ellie needs to undestand human nature and history and grow up, it`s sad but neccesary. Krauts was just better organized to do so. It still happening just different people groups; Bosnian wars ethnics clensing, Rwandan genocide, argentine death patrols, uighur camps in china, etc, etc. Better learn from history so people don`t repeat it in future.
There is the pianist too
I was deeply touched by you're emotional reaction to this important film . The empathy , compassion and love for these precious survivors reflects the exquisite human being that you are . Schindler was honored by Israel as a hero and planted a tree on the path that is a rare honor . Bless you and please continue to be a voice so needed in this world that will make the world a better place for you're having you here !
Huge hugs Ellie and a massive commendment for watching this first by yourself, it's such a harrowingly painful watch that it's so hard to stomach but this is why we all need to except love and acceptance over violence, hatred and intolerance.
“How brain washed do you need to be to do this?!!!!!”
Exactly. Well said. Your response truly gives me hope for humanity because at least people like you exist
You only have to look at what's happening in the world today to see how this happens. The people are tricked by political and social leaders to feel a certain way and over time it becomes normal. In America everything but the far left is viewed as being far right now and public hatred and abuse of everybody not far left is becoming acceptable more and more in public.
Just a few weeks ago Gina Carano, one of the Stars of the show The Mandalorian, pointed this out when she reposted something pointing out this similarity. The far left immediately started to spin the story saying she compared the suffering of the Jews in Nazi Germany to what conservatives are experiencing today. THIS IS A LIE. Gina's post compared the way the German people were tricked into hating the Jews to the method used today to get people to hate conservatives. She never compared the suffering of the Jews to what is being experienced by conservatives today.
People need to wake up and see the lies that are being told to them every day. Not just by individuals but by the news media. If you can't see these lies you start to believe them and then you are just a step away from committing horrible acts of hatred against people because you think it's for the greater good. When has hating a group of people ever been for the greater good? That's the logic of evil people.
@@Mr.Batsu12 I think both sides are guilty of spinning lies and embellishing the truth. Meanwhile while you all are fighting amongst yourselves the real bad guys are getting away with horrific things.

Take this question seriously and study it. There's research. Jordan Peterson has done extensive work through Nietzsche and Solzhenitsyn (and many others) on how political ideology leads to this outcome. If you are asking this question, then that means you do not understand human atrocity. And if you do not understand it... it will happen again. Go read. Human history is a bloodbath, and this Nazi version of atrocity is not unique outside of it body count. Nazis were humans, and you are human. The real question is "how could I be so brainwashed today?" Or, "if I were living in Germany during Nazi rule, how could I end up supporting the party?" Learn something. Don't write it off as "them" being "brainwashed" in "the past."
75 million people believed in an election Lie by Donald Trump so I don't know how much help there is

“I could have saved more”

I agree. Too many self-centered individuals populate the ranks of humanity.
"Whoever saves one life saves the world entire.” Gets me everytime.

interesting fact , the movie is based on an Australian book called Schindler's Ark , by Thomas Kenneally
I own it. It’s a brilliant book.
It's interesting that the book described more about the girl in the red coat. But I bawled
Which came about because the author had a chance encounter with a Schindler Jew (can't remember the name sry) who has been campaigning ever since ww2 ended for Oskar's story to be made into a film. The book was an important first step. Oskar Schindler was amazing but a huge kudos to the author and the Schindler Jew as well for telling the story.
"How can this happen"? This is happening and will happen again. We are being taught to forget. History rewritten. So much to teach and impart and nothing is learned and it is happening now. Cancel culture is just the start. Be safe Ellie.
Yep youtube is deleting historical videos from youtube at an alarming rate too.
"Those who forget history are condemed to repeat it." George Santayana
And look how the media has demonized 2 large groups of people in the US. Conservatives are labeled white supremacists domestic terrorists, and the unvaccinated are being blamed for the ongoing pandemic.
Speilberg incorporated the Red Coat from something that happened at Adolf Eichmanns trial in 1961. Justice Bach was questioning a witness who had gone through the selection process at Auschwitz. What the witness said affected Justice Bach for the rest of his life.... This is what happened in the trial....
“The man told me,” said Bach, “’When we arrived at the camp, Nazi soldiers ordered us into a single-file line. They then sorted us into two lines. I later learned that the people they sent to the right, soldiers marched directly into the gas chambers. Those on the left, they packed into the barracks destined for the work units’.”
“’I can clearly to this day remember the sounds and images. For my dear wife, they shouted, “To the right,” and my little two-and-a-half year old daughter, “To the right.” My young son asked the guard, “Where should I go?,” and the guard answered, “Okay, young man. You can go to the right with your sister and mother.” The guard asked me what was my profession, and I said I was an engineer. He demanded that I go to the left’.”
“’I watched my wife and my son fade into the distance and then swallowed up by the crowd, and the last image I can remember was seeing this tiny but bright red coat, the coat I bought my daughter, grow smaller and smaller into a mere dot and eventually evaporate into the distance. This is how my family disappeared from my life’.”
Upon hearing this at the trial, Bach could no longer speak, a lump gathering in his throat. Following an uncomfortable silence, the judge demanded Bach to continue questioning the witness.
To regain his composure, Bach began fiddling with his papers, but he could not find his voice for some time. Passing through his mind he fixed on his own two-and-a-half year old daughter, the daughter he had only recently given the gift of a bright red coat.
“From that time forward, I can be attending a sports event. I can be dining at a restaurant. I can be sitting outside, and suddenly I hear my heart beating loudly. And then I turn around, and I see a little girl or a little boy wearing a red coat.”
Steven Spielberg heard about this incident from the trial, and contacted Justice Bach for the details. He later incorporated this event into his film Schindler’s List, a movie filmed virtually in black and white - except for a scene where Schindler peers into a concentration camp and among the grittiness, the pain, and the sickness, sees a young girl wearing a bright red coat.
Diolch 👍
I'm sad to see you cry and don't even know you. You have such a heart. God bless you shedding a tear for humanity. You'll have a place in heaven.
There is the Jewish myth/legend of the 36 righteous people: "There exist 36 righteous people whose role in life is to justify the purpose of humankind in the eyes of God. Jewish tradition holds that their identities are unknown to each other and that, if one of them comes to a realization of their true purpose, they would never admit it."
Don't feel so bad. The last scene, of the movie, where Oskar breaks down, I bawled like a baby too..😕
I could never make it through this movie. I was stationed in Germany & there are reminders everywhere although the German people are NOT like these nazis. Most are wonderful people but carry the weight & pain of this horrific time in their country's history. I'm proud of u 4 watching & sharing the raw emotions w/ the world. That's how we make history NOT repeat itself! Keep making vids that expose the horrific times in our World's past & present.👏🏼😭💞🙏🏻
It is painful to watch. I feel accountable, even though I'm born decades later.
But it's every Germans duty to prevent a time like this ever happening again.
Peace
... i cant rly agree with that
Where was you Ramstein or baumholder
The German people were victims too.Msny knew and could not do anything
The sad part is that this is all happened and then sum. No and then more. Movie watchers need to know this isn’t a script this was very real.
No, it wasn’t real at all. The arbitrary shooting of inmates was not allowed under penalty of death so the scene where the commandant is shooting inmates before breakfast is total BS. Furthermore, from his house the camp could hardly be seen, let alone any of those who worked there. The whole thing was complete and utter baloney.

@@richardwright8423 Strangely enough I did actually know that there was a commandant called Goth. I didn't just come on here without doing the most basic of research y'know!

@@janbaer3241 Why? Because I refuse to believe a load of made up nonsense? To my mind you're the one who needs counselling for believing things which are provably false. Remember you're not being asked to study the event but just to believe it happened and in that way it really is no different to organised religion. Don't overthink things, just have faith that what we tell you is the truth.
This is just a movie of what happened. Imagine living through that kind of thing. It's almost too difficult to fathom.
what you felt, young lady, in watching this film shows you have a heart and a conscience. never lose those. the ending chokes me up as well, every time watched
You reacted like a person with a soul. Sadly, we are letting ourselves all over the world become ruled by hatred like this now. We need to love.
Don't worry about it too much, the absolute vast majority of humanity is still utterly good.
We're just too conditioned to focus on what's bad. People are by nature addicted to misery, although be it others, we feed on bad news and you'll see that bad news sells better than good news.
In real life however, even though it seems that everything is getting worse...the world as a whole is in a better state than ever. There's loads of problems, but there's simply soo many people that it's hard to accept others with all their differences.
But in hearth most people are simply good people and will help anyone around them in need.
People like that are truthly human. The most intense scene is the transition of the jewish characters to the real Schindler's jewish.
Unfortunately in the real world, world peace is a pipe dream at best
My grandma was imprisoned in the Auschwitz. I used to go downstairs to her and keep her company and she would sometimes tell me what happened there. My dad still doesnt know what my grandma told me once when she was a bit tipsy. He will never see this comment because he doesnt use media at all. Thats why i'm saying this. She saw people going to gas chambers and never coming out alive. The things she told me...i was...its so hard living with this....my dad, my mom..noone know what she told me what she went through. As i held her, me..a 10 yr old kid...i held her, her shaking in fear and just...crying, holding me tightly...i just wish i could forget what she told me. Please please, dont ever let somthing like this happen ever again. I will never repeat what she told me what happened, i cant. I just hope my grandmother is now safe and doesnt have to remember those days anymore.
There are no proper words for your story. Your grandma 's life was a testimonial . Amazing....she survived the HATE....and passed on wisdom and love.
One of the funniest Seinfeld episodes is where Jerry got busted making out in the theater during Schindler's List
I honestly didn't think you were going to make it through the movie. You were on a emotional rollercoaster. The saddest thing about this is that it's all true.
People today have ZERO clue what a Nazi was.
The word today is used till it means nothing...then you watch this film and see JUST what the word means.
No, you just seem to intentionally ignore the very clear difference between a traditional Nazi and a neo-Nazi.
Your right just like the word racism and racists has lost all meaning because apparently everything is racist or supremacist these days.
@Ray Riley Not my fault you don't understand political terminology.
@Ray Riley Eunuch's would feel superior to you, mate. It's not an achievement.
True that, try being german and simply being on the internet. Not a day goes by without getting called a nazi *thumbs up* gets even better if you are jewish *double thumbs up* Luckily I was raised with backbone and no 2021 complainy ass, so I try to pretend that I not care.
It’s hard to understand how people can be driven to commit such atrocities. I guess it starts when we start to look at certain groups of people as the source of our own struggles, then we dehumanize, then we demonize. I don’t know. It’s a brilliant film, and your reaction touched my heart.
You better watch out what you say you might get fired from Disney. That's pretty much exactly what that lady said who got fired from Disney
Reason because hitler blamed Jews for lose of ww1
yeah. struggle.. economic strife. wars don't start when everyone is well-paid, well-fed, and well-off. loss of income, jobs, socioeconomic struggle for a large number of people. in their desolation they turn to people who have more extremist idealogies who share their anger. amplify that with fear and hate propaganda spread consistently through the media, and that fear becomes more militant. they become more apathetic and hostile towards those they deem 'outsiders'. and of course those in power have military might to further their interests and quiet those who resist. the prevalence of religion and lack of scientific mentalities didn't help the situation either. after awhile everyone becomes so desensitized to the system they don't even see the atrocities - it becomes just another day.
Just like israel today
The opposite of LOVE is not HATE, it is INDIFFERENCE. Add to the indifference FEAR, and it is a powerful motivator to look the other way.
Your reaction is almost as heart-rending as the movie. Bless your heart.
Nothing more precious than a woman with a warm heart in a cold world. Tears are not a weakness, but a strength of humanity. Those who cannot feel compassion for others are not privileged to be counted among the Family of Man, but are destined to remain outcasts in a world that does not need them.
No Ellie, it’s Millions of people not thousands
I think she meant people who took a part in extermination not does who got killed. She said thousands of people KNOWING. Because so many people knew what was happening and did nothing to stop it.
@@RaraAviss But there where also literally millions knowing, everybody in Germany noticed theire neighbours getting kidnapped/beaten/looted, they saw the trains, the forced labourers from places like Buchenwald worked in the cities where everybody saw them etc. It's just that hardly anyone cared because in the end they often got their former neighbours belongings and frankly many germans agreed with nazi-ideology, including the extermination of "lesser races" part.
It's very important not to forget history.
and more importantly, the lessons it teaches us
@K.M. Smith We've had Socialists here a long time. My Grandfather _hated_ FDR because of his Socialist programs. In the USA we're supposed to have the flexibility of picking and choosing an outlook, using it when it is good and discarding it when it is bad.
@@bbb462cid Your grandfather hated FDR for...winning the war against Nazis? Starting Social Security and FDIC protection? Funding the Agricutural Adjustment administration giving relief money to farmers, the Public Works administration building roads and subways, the Civilian Conservation Corps for paying people to build forests and control floods, and the Tennessee Valley Authority bringing electricity to states that needed it still in the 20th century? Shame you've inherited that willful ignorance.
@@crashleypier- I'm guessing you don't know what the National Socialist German Workers party was, or how the many policies FDR put in place mirrored theirs own idealogy.
@K.M. Smith
Wut?
Fascists and socialists are about as far from eachother on the political spectrum as you can get.
It sounds like you need to google up the actual correct defintions of those terms,
I imagine you have just read the "Socialist" part of the nazi partys name and not actually done any research past that.
If you had actually done some research you would know that the nazi party had literally nothing to do with anything left leaning and were straight up arch enemies with socliasts and communists. They used it in their name to trick people, claiming nazis were socialists due to the partys name is like saying north korea or the soviet union are/was actual democratic republics because its in their names.
And FYI modern democratic socialists and communists also have very litle in common.
ALL of this is easily researchable information on wikipedia :)
Ellie: (perky) "Hi, guys!"
Me: "Well, that won't last long."
OMFG
I think I can actually HEAR the sound of your humility hitting the floor just after you strained and pushed the last of it out.
The saddest thing is that this is currently playing out again with the Uyghurs in China. Nobody is doing anything, and our new president in the United States stated recently that it's just a "difference of culture" and that basically, he doesn't give a shit.

One of several reasons he is known as Beijing Biden.

Frankly, I would worry more about the damned "centres" you have on your border in order to torture innocent asylum seekers. And about the children you took away from their parents. And about the people who march through Charlottesville screaming "Jews will not replace us".
Don't forget this happens in North Korea camps they punish 5 generations of family

This is one of the most important movies in history. There are only a few of them, but Schindlers Liste leads the list.
The Pianist is another one about The Holocaust that is a must.
the German officer Wilm Hosenfeld
then Wilm Hosenfeld saved Wladyslaw Szpilman's life, filmed in 2002 in The Pianist
Wilhelm Adalbert "Wilm" Hosenfeld (born May 2, 1895 in Mackenzell near Fulda; † August 13, 1952 in Stalingrad) was a Wehrmacht officer in World War II who probably killed at least 30 Polish citizens, including several Jews, during the German occupation of Warsaw saved.
Hosenfeld became known through the description in Władysław Szpilman's autobiography The Pianist - My Wonderful Survival, which was made into a film by Roman Polański (The Pianist). The Jerusalem Holocaust Memorial Yad Vashem awarded Hosenfeld posthumously the honorary title Righteous Among the Nations in November 2008.
It was not until 1951 that Szpilman found out the name of his helper and that he was a Soviet prisoner of war. He tried to save him, but Hosenfeld died on August 13, 1952 at the age of 57 in the Stalingrad POW camp.
In January 1945 he was taken prisoner by the Soviets. Truthfully, he stated that the sports department he ran was organizationally subordinate to Department Ic. This information was his undoing, because in addition to the troop support, this department also performed intelligence tasks. In order to obtain information about his alleged secret service activities from Hosenfeld, he was subjected to "strict interrogation" in the Minsk remand prison. After six months of torture and solitary confinement, he was a broken man. He suffered the first stroke.
In 1950 he was sentenced to 25 years of forced labor as a war criminal without proof of any offense. Several times he tried in vain to be extradited to Poland. Despite the intercession of those he rescued, Hosenfeld was not released. Paralyzed on one side and desperate, he died on August 13, 1952 at the age of 57 in the Stalingrad prisoner-of-war camp of internal bleeding, probably caused by mistreatment.
Szpilman did not find out the name of his helper until 1950. In 1957 he visited Hosenfeld's widow in Thalau and told her that her husband had saved him
the Protestant-pacifist way of thinking of Wilm Hosenfeld
The Leuphana University of Lüneburg has awarded the Hosenfeld / Szpilman Memorial Prize annually since 2005. Musicological examinations, research work from the cultural and human sciences and studies from an educational perspective can be submitted.
In October 2007, Hosenfeld was posthumously honored by the Polish President Lech Kaczyński for the rescue of Polish citizens with the order of Polonia Restituta (Commander).
In October 2008, a square in the Kassel district of Biebergemünd was named after Wilm Hosenfeld.
The Jerusalem Holocaust memorial Yad Vashem named Hosenfeld posthumously on November 25, 2008 as Righteous Among the Nations. The appointment of the former Wehrmacht officer was made at the request of Władysław Szpilman in 1998 and after years of efforts by his son Andrzej Szpilman. This was preceded by intensive research on the part of the memorial, which ensured that Hosenfeld had not been involved in any war crimes.
Wilm Hosenfeld's birthplace in Mackenzell was named Wilm-Hosenfeld-Haus on March 11, 2011.
On February 25, 2018, a memorial stone was inaugurated at the Thalau elementary school. It pays tribute to Hosenfeld's work and is a reminder and reminder for future generations.
I know English isn't your first language, but the feelings coming from your heart were easy to understand and relate to in any language. You aren't just a pretty face, you are beautiful inside. Thank you for the reminder that good still exists.
This is why I think teaching history is so important. We cannot forget the horrifying things that humans do to each other. And hopefully learn from it.

Also fun fact about the girl who played the part of the"girl in the red coat"-stephen speilberg made her promise that she she wouldn't watch the film until she was 18. It was a promise she kept and has said she is so grateful to s.s for making her do that.
Also Ammon goeth's daughter never knew anything about her father's crimes before seeing this film as it was hidden from her.
Splielburg did say that to her, but she ignored him and watched the film at 11. She hated it and really regrets having ignored him. www.thewrap.com/schindlers-list-red-coat-girl-was-horrified-spielbergs-film-being-proud-80066/
@@mortisrat ah ok-i heard it was the other way round.
This movie should be a litmus test to see if someone has a good heart or not. Anyone with even a remote sense of humanity would shed at least one tear when watching this movie.
a great film that no one sees anymore or even knows about is “THE KILLING FIELDS,” from 1984 with Sam Waterston and Dr. Haing Ngor, who won an Oscar for his role. The movie tells the true story of the Cambodian civil war and the atrocities of the Pol Pot regime, who was responsible for 2 million deaths.
Pol Pot was the driving force behind the Cambodian genocide, the systematic persecution and killing of Cambodians that the Khmer Rouge regarded as enemies. The genocide, coupled with malnutrition and poor medical care, killed between 1.5 and 2 million people, approximately a quarter of Cambodia's population.
“The Killing Fields” is an excellent film that we all need to see, and learn about.
Dr. Haing Ngor, was also in Oliver Stone’s amazing film “Heaven & Earth,” was murdered in February of 1996.
“The Killing Fields,” was his first acting role.
