The way the Rabbi closes his eyes when Amon says "such a small pile of hinges" is so heartbreaking.
I know you would think being in that situation would motivate those people to work, but it's in their religion to not work. They run scams to have people do their bidding. Truly malignant people.
the movie is pure propaganda and designed to make you feel sympathy for the satanic state of israel.
you think? ruclips.net/user/shorts0Y6QAvhzcG8
whats heartbreaking is that satanic illuminati runs usa and nato and previously nazi germany.
It almost looks like he’s saying prayers in his head or something I wonder if that was intentional or if I’m just thinking to much of it
Ralph Fiennes is a MOUNTAIN of acting. He portrays villains and heroes so well, it is insane!
@@markdavis7397 He was great in The Menu too
Strange Days just 2 years after this he portrays a lovable loser down on his luck. Talk about a change from Goeth
I flipped over when I realized he played Voldemort in Harry Potter as well.
@@markdavis7397 YOU’RE AN INANIMATE OBJECT!!
He is. I think Ezra does quite a job to.
To have gone through the first...then second click...then hearing a new pistol come out....must have been the longest seconds of life for the person kneeling.
This movie is fiction. Look it up.
@@Bucephalus84 I know....saw it the movies when it came out....30 years ago.
Wait....are saying that Holocaust was a fiction?
@@Bucephalus84 Fiction is all people care about. They can't stand the truth
@@Bucephalus84 how is it fiction?
@@tattooninja what's the truth
What makes Amon so sadistic is he was planning to kill him from the beginning but wants to play with the worker's emotions first before doing so, like it's a fun game for him. First by implying the worker is pretty much doing an interview for his life and if he makes a good hinge quickly, he will be spared. And then even giving him couragement and false hope by telling him he's doing a good job.
Humans have a peculiar ability to be evil in poetic ways like this. Another example is Japanese soldiers during WWII would take babies from their mothers and before impaling the babies on the end of their bayonets, they would make faces to the babies and tickle them and make them laugh.
@@justaguy328that is so fucked
@@justaguy328 Yet somehow nobody discusses these atrocities that the Japanese commited against women and children. Not their citizens nor their current government even have the balls to acknowledge that it happened at all
This movie is a work of fiction... Same as the novel.
That's bullcrap. Amon would have spared him if he saw that the box was full of hinges. Also if he didn't see any other type of distraction, he wouldn't have killed him.
Gotta love that triumphant Universal music awkwardly jammed in to the end of this hard to watch scene.
ahahaha
Евреи создали кинокомпании Голливуда.
Yeah that’s pretty sick
It took me a while to realize the guns never went off because of Schindler sabotaging the ammunition in his factory.
I also read somewhere that Goth himself was terrible in maintaining his firearms which was why both guns wouldn't work, but I think it's much stronger if the reason the Rabbi was save was because of sabotaged ammo.
If you don’t notice, everytime goeth and his aids pulled the the Luger P08 and the CZ 27 slide, not a single round comes out. Most likely the ammunition got stuck in the magazine .
@@ricarte1986 Or it's just Hollywood and they don't know shit about how guns work. Duh
@@ricarte1986 If you look closely, you can see bullets being ejected out the Luger. The CZ 27, you're right though.
This scene was far from scjindler messing with bullets. I don’t think camp generals would use average bullets schinder would’ve made anyway
How remorselessly fast and without any thought at all he pulls the trigger for the first "shot" is always staggering to me.
It's a movie. Try it in real life. It's much different.
@@sgt.thundercok4704 In real life psychopaths would care much less and use something else to get the job done.
As guy above said it's only because it's a movie. in real life the SS soldiers having humanity in them is the whole reason germany created the gas chambers. Because many SS soldiers started feeling remorse and often commited suicide because they were unable to live with themselves. Gas chambers made it easier to kill a fellow human.
@@sgt.thundercok4704 This was based on a real person who actually did those things.
@@sgt.thundercok4704 are you for real?
For me it remains a mystery why Ralph Fiennes was not awarded an Oscar for this performance in this film.
It's not really a mystery. Only one person can win a year so lots of great performances don't get Oscars. He was nominated at least so he did get some recognition.
Because Nazi = Bad
Roger Ebert called it the Star 80 Syndrome after Eric Roberts being nominated for his role in Star 80. He said, “Hollywood will not reward someone for playing a creep, no matter how good the performance is.”
So who won the Oscar on his category?
@@aresdonachelo5283I don’t know his name but he played the detective in “The Fugitive”
Spielberg contracted several of the former inmates of Plasow as consultants for the film; apparently when Fiennes came out of makeup and wardrobe for shooting on their first day, the "consultants" were pretty freaked out...

"oy vey, its happening again"
Oy veyyyy
It's like anuda shoah!
Always a daunting situation when your boss and couple of senior execs come to your desk and ask "What are you making?"
It's been a while since I've seen this movie, but to even risk slacking off when you're being forced into labor by the NAZIS is asking for death.
@@nahor88 it was free for all you could work harder than anyone else and still be killed
Underrated comment ahah
"You disappointed, apparently...."
@John Martlew you've never worked in a factory, and it shows!
The rabbi was the character I sympathised with the most. That whole moment must've been unbearably traumatising and tough to the point you'd almost perversely want to die once you're spared to prevent it happening again... once Oskar listed him, the way he said "thank you direktor" as if he'd been given a raise at work, and not just his life back to him and a bit more protection.... his face in that scene was utterly heartbreaking. Was so wholesome and sweet and grateful.
The way, wherever you see him he takes his cap off to talk, and puts back on to work... such manners, for obvious reasons, but still. This character really stuck with me..
You know this whole movie is a ruse, right?
You know all of this is just made up right?
@@gh87716 whether it's a ruse or not it was effective in what it did to people
@@gh87716 Hundreds of first-hand accounts. Multiple books with multiple sources have been written about this specific story. Entire documentaries with interviews with survivors and their children are available on RUclips for your free viewing pleasure. What crappy corner of the internet produces people like you?
@@gh87716 What do you mean? I'm german and I've been to these places. The people are real. The story of Oskar Schindler saving over 1000 jews from deportation is also real. There are records, pictures, family trees, testimonies of survivors and so on. The details are, of course, Hollywood.
It's also chilling how the other two officers are discussing why the gun isn't firing with the condemned prisoner still kneeling there as though he's of no consequence.
@VinAr Run I don't know, why is every film set in England in medieval times not speaking in old english? Why does everyone in Star Wars not speak Galactic Basic or Huttese? It's called artistic license. These are nazis, I don't think they so much as deserve commitment to the realism this film has already given to them.
@vinarrun3622
There are actually scenes where they do speak German in this movie, lol. But for your question, if they made the actors speak german the entire movie, the movie wouldn't have been as popular to Anglophone audiences (i.e. most of the world)
It’s genius filmmaking. Filmaço.
Caused it's made in America intended for American audiences
wow so deep
There are so many nuances in this film. The moment Goeth mentions the amount of hinges, Levartow knows his faith is sealed; there is no point in making excuses as it's already been decided he's to be shot. Only when Goeth is thrown off by the malfunctioning pistol is there a chance of changing his mind, from execution to frustrated assault; and Levratow does so by providing a reason for the low production numbers.
Even the guns were like "thats enough"
Fienne's snaps because it exposes the facade, laying bare just how evil they, and especially he, are. The frustration and then the Rabbi explaining he was taken off the job that morning.
I bet that hand crafted door hinge worked flawlessly though.
I bet the Inglorious Basterds would loved to teach Amon here a 'lesson in humanity'
@SHAZAM yeah but what if the inglorious basterds actually met Amon? Would be interesting. If this didn't happen the inglorious basterds would never exist
@@dumann9142 thats a joke of a movie
@@dumann9142 basterds is a comedy
Nothing to do with this
@SHAZAM This movie is not fiction, kid. Don't believe everything you hear on 4chan.
There was a production mistake in this scene: the second weapon with which he tries to shoot is clearly a pistol. When he gives up, and gives the gun away to the other officer, that is a revolver.
Specifically a CZ vz 27
I remember commenting this years ago lol
Must have been the best shot that they made that followed up and they decided it was a minor price to pay.
Then let us demand a reshoot to correct this most evil of evils. He who must not be named still lives, there is still time!
It was probably because the gun he used could not be dropped so they just used a revolver prop with less moving parts.
While I see this scene very dark, but that gun is like refusing to shoot a man who made it.
Especially ironic considering that Schindler’s factory purposely made duds on purpose.
@@jamesdragonforcehe made artillery shells, not small arms munitions.
@@alexander1902 They still count as war materials either way. The difference is only the size and role. Both still kill at the end of the day.
@@jamesdragonforce I misread your comment. I likely think it had to do with Ralph's real life character being lazy and undisciplined and not maintaining his guns in working condition, not necessarily dud rounds.
He made hinges
When he walks away he drops a totally different gun.
He keeps racking the semi auto slide but not a single cartridge was ejected
That would mean both guns were unloaded or failing the cycle.
Furth meaning Göth was stupid!
Yeah! He dropped a revolver, and he was using a pistol. (The one after the Luger). Production mistake.
Alot of arms and munitions were similarly being produced by slave labor. The slave laborers sometimes sabotaged the weapons/munitions in subtle ways.
@@actioncom2748 LOL... really good point. Repeatedly pulling the slide would have ejected the bullets. It's fascinating how 9mm's today work exactly the same, assuming that's being depicted accurately here.
@@nahor88 vz.27 is 7.65mm not 9mm
Ralph Fiennes was a class act in this film.Indeed, any film he acted in.kudos to all in this. History to be remembered
I always thought there was something oddly comedic about when the gun jams a second time and Fiennes goes "oh christ..." and then the other nazis bumble around with the gun, Its like for a split second it becomes a three stooges skit or something. But it only became a funny scene in hindsight after I already knew the old man didn't die at the end of it.
Grotesque more than comedic, it's the juxtaposition of the horror felt by the man who's about to die, and the men who are annoyed by the gun jamming. It's tuesday for them.
It’s not meant to be funny, it’s meant to portray the fact that in their minds they have no magnitude of what it is that they are about to do because it’s just another day at the office for them. If you don’t see your victims as people, then you don’t need to feel for them in terms of what you are about to do to them.
I've only ever seen this film once and that's how many times I needed. I was traumatised the whole watch. We watched it in school and it had a big impact in me. Seeing just this clip after years makes me sick to my stomach. And that's why I think it is the greatest historical movie ever made.
The good old ludeveko technique in action. There's a reason they make children watch this horror show...propaganda
@@user-xm9ms5dl8d Propaganda of what ?
Same!
It's completely fictional. Nothing about the movie is real. Get a life.
@@CdnUltrasA.C. yes 60 lakh civilians died is a propoganda asshole
That scene shocked me as a kid seeing it how without remorse or thought they'd pull the trigger, like men standing around a car trying to get the engine to start and it's no big deal, sad how a lot of this really happened
You know they brainwashed you right? This is all BS.
It still is, just other locations on the planet.
@@Balalaika74they brainwashed all of us. It's a literal satanic abuse ritual, on all of us.
If he was cocking the gun so much wouldn’t the bullets come out the side until it was empty
That would mean both guns were unloaded or failing to cycle.
Further meaning Göth was stupid!
@@actioncom2748 Or maybe those officers just wanted to fuck with somebody by dry firing unloaded weapons.
@@Shawn_White Göth doesn't strike me as a guy who likes to dry fire weapons at people.
@@actioncom2748 Indeed this definitely seems out of character.
@@actioncom2748 Well we all knew that! (That Goth was stupid)
Devastating film and one of the greatest and most important cinematic achievements of all time
Cant agree more.
No argument there. Terry Gilliam tried to shit on it by saying that it is a "Cop-out of a movie" because the Jews survived, but 1) If this is his idea of a cop-out, then Idk what his idea of serious is and 2) The fact that the Jews survived is the *point,* jackass. Good lord.

@@jeffbuckleydisciple2013 exactly
Pretty sure it doesn’t fire because it isn’t loaded. He keeps racking the slide but nothing is ejecting
That's because the ejector didn't work and the bullet got stuck in the chamber.

The scene with the two guns seems like the screenwriters made this up but it actually happened in real life
Reality often surpasses fiction because God doesn't have to care about a movie critic saying that it wasn't realistic afterwards.
@@danielmp2085 So many gun factories the Germans captured, the workers produced intentionally defective guns constantly. This isn't as farfetched as people might want to think. A youtube channel for WW2 guns opened a brand new crate of Czech-made WW2 Mauser rifles and every single one had the same defective sights causing shooters to miss.

I like to think that rabbi was the last thing Amon thought of as the noose tightened
I find it hilarious how they're discussing the reason why the pistol isn't firing as if it's a normal sunday morning
pretty much the whole point. All to show that killing is nothing to them. Just a typical occurrence like filing forms.

Having seen this a few times over the years, I realized I wasn't even breathing during the last scene. The work done in this film is amazing.
This scene put me on the edge of my seat more than any other in the movie. Tragically the real life rabbi who this character was based on was killed by car in New York city in the late.60s.
What? The movie is an adaptation of a fiction book of the same name. None of these people exist. Similar events may have happened obviously.

I have never been able to watch this movie, just the thought of it disturbs me that much. Just can’t come to terms that human beings can do such things to other human beings

Shut up about the Oscars. Only morons care about that.
One of the best films ever made.
What about inglorious basterds? Surely doing well @ teaching them a lesson in humanity
@SHAZAM who pissed in your Captain crunch this morning?
Yeah its a pretty good fictional film
This is third all time after avengers endgame and the dark knight
@jonathanbirch2022 lol I know bro. I’m just being facetious.
I didn’t even like The Irishman compared to earlier works by the greats.
This scene was so chilling. Imagine the kind of person that not only kills people without a second thought but is more annoyed at his weapon malfunctioning. (Which by the way, is a 1/1000000 chance occurrence with German weaponry and was more than likely a problem with the magazine seeing as how no rounds ejected from the slide. Thank god for that)
In my opinion this movie is Spielbergs magnum opus! A brutal, sad, yet touching and hopeful story that shows humanity in all facets for good or ill. It makes me so grateful that I didn’t have to live through such or horrific time.
I can't imagine anything because I'm not real
It's implied that it malfunctioned because the ammo Schindler's factory produced was all blanks

lol German weaponry was not that good. It was still made out of metal, not magic
@@HomeschoolVouchers Blanks are still 100% lethal at close range, the force produced by the gas expulsion from the barrel can crack someones skull. It's how Bruce Lee's son died.
The reason it didn't work was contrary to the OP's claim that German weapons were somehow infallible, that's a myth/lie perpetuate by the Nazis to make themselves seem stronger than they were. The truth is that German materials made in the 1940s were pieces of shit, they were having to use lower quality materials for construction due to supply shortages. And the designs themselves were often heavily flawed, like the so called "King Tiger" whose most lethal opponent was it's own gear box.
This movie should be re-released in IMAX.
Could happen this year. It’s 30 years old this year
A lot of fools in the comment would say “it’s Jewish miracle!”
No you fools! It’s movie miracle.
Has anyone else ever noticed that the pistols never ejected an unfired round?
Ahh yes... a documentary about working in Amazon
Как там вшивая Америка ?(Чарли Чаплин )
Rabbi Lewartows fear at 4:27 is so palpable and heart wrenching as he shuts his eyes, and his lips begin to quiver as he realizes he's about to die. Or so he thought.
It hit when my dad said " god intervention" during this scene
Never work extra hard in front of your boss.
Ralph Fiennes deserved an oscar in this movie . i kid you not , i had a nightmare about him when i first watched this movie . to this day i fear him for this role
Notice all the Jewish prisoners running in the background. When instead, if all of them would have of rushed the 3 Germans, they could have killed Amon who was weaponless at that moment. They would have eventually died anyway, but at least they would have killed Amon who had no working gun..
"If the day ever came that this factory ever produced a shell that could be fired, I'd be very disappointed."
There is a continuity error, when he drops the gun to the ground it is suddently a revolver :)
It was actually 3 pistols not 2, at the end of the clip you can also see a revolver that didn’t fire as well, when Amon walks off he tries his revolver as well and when it doesn’t work he throws it on the ground.
I looked closely, and I think it might be a bad cut or a continuity error. If you look at it, it turns from a semi-auto pistol from before it cuts to him walking away, to the revolver when the scene cuts to the shot of him walking away. So, it's still 2 guns, not 3.
“Tonight on How it’s Made!”
That's extremely accurate with the Opel Blitz - military transport truck. This is an exceptional and heavy film. I was always pissed at my father for taking me to see it in theaters when I was 10
5:16 Pistol
5:48 Revolver
I always wondered why Amon didn’t borrow one of the other officer’s gun or had the officers “shoot him right there on his authority”… he clearly wanted the Rabi dead no? 🤔
Too embarrassed and frustrated. Plus, he gets a kick out of killing personally.
Fun fact: the gun he drops walking away is a revolver. Even though a second ago he was holding a semi automatic pistol.
I just noticed that myself... why did they make such an obvious error?
@@NostalgicGamerRickOShay Because the sample gun they had on set was too nice to drop.
Fun fact : The Holohoax was just thst
Any firearm aficionados here who also want to know where the bullets go as he racks the gun/pulls the trigger half a dozen times yet they don't fall to the ground?
Dude had an empty magazine...
RUclips erased my comment haha. But you’re right when he racks it back, a round should fall. So this is an error in the film . But typically the explosion caused by the powder is what causes an automatic ejection of the round .
He survived the war, unbelievable
Funny enough there have actually been times recorded in history in which guns failed to shoot when they were to execute someone, as if they had guardian angel protecting them, there were one event I cannot remember the name of the guy but he was gonna be shot by a firing squad by law because he killed someone, 3 soldiers with rifles aimed and pulled the trigger all 3 guns failed to fire, they reloaded and tried again and still failed.
After that the commander tried to use his pistol, his execution was rescheduled, however a week later it turned out he was innocent after new evidence appeared and he was set free.
I do not believe in God or some crazy religious theory, but stuff like this seems too good to just be by chance, there is definitely a little nudge in the way that some of us have a set time to live, and we are not allowed to go until that time has come.
Anyone else notice he dropped a revolver at the end instead of the semi-automatic handgun?
No....was taking in the whole scene, like the group of folks in the back who stumbled upon the scene, and ran away when they saw what was going down. Meanwhile, you're checking for continuity mistakes. You get an extra lollipop after class!!
@@garyspence2128 I've actually been watching this film since it came out in 1993 and love everything about it and the story it tells. I had never notice the change in handguns until recently. So why you're being a smartass beats me, have a lovely day.

If you notice, there's a prop mistake where he has a 9mm initially in the scene, drops the gun, and in this shot it's a revolver
Strange editing mistake that his semi-automatic changes into a revolver as he drops it
The most deeply unsettling part for me is how matter-of-fact are these guards while discussing possible causes of the guns' malfunctions. To them it is nothing but a daily trifle. Had the gun fired - they would probably forget about another human being they murdered in a matter of minutes.
An example of a movie so well made I never want to watch it again.
Here’s a life lesson do not over work your self and be fast because then your boss will expect and demand that work from you all the time
Ralph Fiennes was so convincing that some actual survivors started to shake when they saw him in his Nazi uniform
Looking closer at it, I think the ppk didnt fire because the dude didnt put bullets in it. Everytime he cocks it no bullet gets ejected. He forgot to put the magazine in.
Actually there are three guns in this scene. The first semi-auto that didn't work, the second semi-auto that didn't work , and the revolver ( for the life of me I don't know how a film maker like Spielberg didn't catch that that glaring continuity fail ) that he dropped at the end of the scene.
Yeah, yep. That was my take-away from this scene, as well. Not the representation of the atrocities committed in the camps, not the great, harrowing performances, not chilling lines like "I need to make room", but a gun continuity error.
@@Jennyfischit is an error, so obviously people can point it out.
He was so proud of showing Amon his speed of making hinges he never thought about the hinges in the box
Omg, never realised that the gun that he toasts in the ground is a revolver, different gun than the one that he actually used to try to kill the poor guy...
4:27 Death hanging over his shoulder
I mean I can see the one lugar not working, the early lugars were somewhat unreliable from what I understand. But it really pulls me out of the immersion when the second pistol also won't fire. The odds of that are just astronomical. Highly unlikely.
I think that it is not supposed to be realistic I like to think of it like some sort of miracle
In the original novel this didn't happen, they jumped the shark with the movie adaptation.
The other two officers casually testing the gun while point it at the head of the rabbi... It would be almost funny if it weren't chilling.
Not making light of a serious scene, but I felt the entire time Levartow was thinking
'I can hear what the problem is.'
I agree a great and powerful movie. I'm catholic and parts of this movie brought me to tears.
Why does it matter you're catholic

Because you are soft and weak.
@@shmoga I am a janitor at Amazon and this made me cry
Second semi-automatic didn't work, he walks away and drops a revolver......
I imagine if they had found out then that he was a Rabbi, they’d find a third gun that worked.
I would have tried to save myself by saying I had already made a few piles of hinges. They just took the filled boxes; this was a new box, so there are a few hinges.
A craftsman being saved by poor craftsmanship is the height of irony.
5:08 the way he puts out his hand and is like “gimmy gimmy” 😂
I remember my friend's father commenting when we first watched this scene: "A man of God will always be denied injustice."
As years passed, I understood the meaning. By "Man of God", he didn't mean a Rabbi, but anyone who lived by the ways of justice and fairness - because they ensure balance, and God or not, Balance always wins.
I guess the 6 million weren't just and fair enough. They didn't have enough belief.
Yeah, do you remember the whole movie? I mean the guy is right 6 million dead.
@@Rascarrr Nor the millions of POWs, civilians, soldiers, etc. They were all just unworthy? If God spared him, why not the others?
@@MVProfits Irony: The Just World Fallacy more or less leads to atrocities like this in the first place.
The guns were empty or had bad magazines. No shells ejected from the chamber which meant the gun was not chambering a round. The luger had magazine feeding issues in ww2, some mags would not line up with action causing the gun to fail to strip a round. If the guards used a p38 they would have had more blood on their hands.
This scene made me feel sick and cold the first time I watched it. It doesn't get much easier on a rewatch. To be that soulless and heartless executioner, I believe there's something missing from a person.
Also wow, when Schindler shouts at his assistant, it goes silent then dogs start barking then Schindler reconsiders his attitude. Poignant.
Man, it was 40 years before I was born and up until a point I never thought we'd see such inhumanity again in the modern world. Then we got the likes of ISIS, Wagner, Blackwater etc... And then Russia hurts Ukraine for no other reason than old borders and bullshit. Then Russia systematically kidnaps children and families, relocates them to Russia, jails journalists and protesters, kills anyone considered 'acting against the state', Russia actively poisoned innocent people in my homeland.
Fiennes is a tremendous actor, but his character was a real, cold and evil piece of shit. Amon Goeth was a sadist and a monster in human flesh.
I'm an Atheist but sometimes I think about a hell made for people like him and a heaven made for the people who died to such monsters.
Sorry for the tangetial thoughts.... Thank you Spielberg.
Type much?
"And then Russia hurts Ukraine for no other reason than old borders and bullshit." Let me first state that I don't agree at all with Putin deciding to invade Ukraine, it's crazy to have a war like that, but man, stop guzzling propaganda. It's not exactly as clear cut as you think it is. Real world politics are not good vs evil cartoons.
A rabbi while in a concentraton camp was asked how can there be a god. His response was how can there not be? That both the evil and the good arrive at the same fate, that is, non-existence, a cessation of being, seems somehow wrong. I say this as an atheist. It just is.

Don't go to south America or Africa then. It's worse.
Everything is on point with this movie , the howl of the train while he is escorted out is down right chilling
You know From the studio that brought you fast and furious jurassic park despicable me pitch perfect and back to the future and other big movies universal made i never expected they would greenlit a movie like this.
20 years ago. Was a different time. I love movies now but those were great times for film.
People did not hold back.
it's Steven EFFEN Spielberg.
NO STUDIO WOULD REFUSE A MOVIE from Spielberg.
It's not really out of the blue. There's been plenty of tragic war films that have been made prior to this.
@@hairglowingkyle4572 no what i meant is a big name studio know for fast cars dinosaurs and minions is willing to make a very tragic movie like this one.
@@isaachernandez2592 ah true true
Knowing your gonna die, then hearing all those racks and clicks. I can't imagine the psychological torture.
The Swindlers List
I seriously don't have words to explain what Rabbi Levartow was going thru in those moments, desperately trying to plead his case. Chilling.
This must never happen again.
And yet we have politicians around the world who choose to act as though their souls were expired, and everyone in their way as dogs for kicking.
Bravo Ralph Feinnes. chills. every time chills.
Youre worried about politicians? Read some of the comments in this thread. Politicians arent the problem.
@@co94 Yes, because freedom of speech and offering a differing opinion is really a "problem" for you folks on the left who irrationally make war on free speech, huh? YOU are the problem. Not us with different opinions. YOUR support and "apologism" for politicians IS the problem, buddy.
@@co94 I agree. Holocaust denial is among the things that really makes it hard for me to give a person a second chance. Makes my blood boil.
Whole scene is hard to watch, but it turns my stomach when they’re hand adjusting his head for a clear head shot. All while he’s explaining his reason for the subpar amount of finished hinges.
You know movies are not real right?
@@brandondodd4713 Why does that matter for this scene/film?
I saw a picture of Amon Goeth after his capture by American forces. He has a somber look on his face like, "I think I blew this life."
As a Buddhist - I find it a useful framework for making sense of reality - I wonder how long he's had/will have to spend burning off all the horrendous karma he accumulated in his last life before he gets another shot at a human one, or even if he has come back as a human, or something similarly advanced, at liberation, enlightenment, whatever you want to call it.
The way he's leaning away from the gun in anticipation is too real.
You know I always found it strange that he waited for the Nazi to drag him outside, and after a few gun malfunctions to tell him that his pile was small because the machine was being recalibrated.
it would have ment nothing notice how he doesn't stop trying to kill him even after he says it
At first, he is positive he is going to die, and that it is not worth begging for his life. When the gun doesn't work, he has just a chance that he might not die, at least not right away, so he explains what happened.
Cant imagine how he would have felt.. or i should rather say how countless real people have felt when the gun didnt fail. The injustice and the inability to change anything about ur forthcoming end...
Number One...Masterpiece
If both his pistols didn't work, why not just use the other officer's guns? "Hey, both my guns aren't working, let me use yours."
If only ..
This has to be one of the darkest of dark comedy scenes ever filmed. It's so messed up but comical in a twisted way given the reactions of the Nazi's
Not even guns are that evil
Guns aren't sentient though.
