This movie was excellent. On a side note. I was in Florida visiting my Grandma, with my (now wife) girlfriend. She was at a senior home, and while I was eating lunch with her, an older gentleman called me over to his table. He asked where I was from and told me he was from Krakov. I knew the name. I knew the area. He then rolled up his sleeve and showed me his tattoo. He was in Auschwitz from opening to closing. He told me everything about his survival and remembered it like it was yesterday (to compare, if he talked about today, you would think he was crazy) 4 hours later, I was still talking with him, while my wife was talking to my grandma. I'll never forget this conversation and I wouldn't trade it in for everything. The man's whole family was murdered, and he was the lone survivor.
Krakow* sorry i had to
Same stories people have in Gaza now.This movie changed nothing.
@birbidboxer the W sounds like a V in polish, and V sound like Ws.
It is just a movie, a great movie, but should't be put too much "on to it's shoulders". I rather just think people didn't change, and won't change what ever happens in history, shorter or longer time ago.
@@vega371 i know im polish 😁
When one of the Holocaust survivors first saw Ralph Fiennes in costume, she began to shake uncontrollably. He broke character to comfort her, something he never did on set. Amon Goeth's granddaughter, Jennifer Teege, is Black and wrote a book, "My Grandfather Would Have Shot Me: A Black Woman Discovers Her Family's Nazi Past ." It's a fascinating memoir.
John Williams composed the score for the movie. After Steven Spielberg screened a draft of the movie for John Williams to compose the score, Williams said that the movie needed a better composer than him to do it justice, to which Spielberg replied poignantly "I know, but they're all dead."
I love that story, it really shows the character of both men and how much they respected each other
They did a fantastic interview with Stephen Colbert together where Spielberg said that he can get the audience to the edge of tears, and John Williams gets them the rest of the way. They both talked about how John can watch the first cut of the movie and just totally understand what Steven is going for. Steven also said that he quit questioning John's musical decisions on the movie Jaws - because John was able to use the score to stand in for the unseen menace of the shark - which kinda saved the movie because the robotic shark didn't work most of the time anyway... and if you go back and rewatch the movie with that in mind, you can see exactly how much the music builds up the menace of the shark so well that you only need those shorter glimpses of the shark to sell the fear right up until almost the end of the movie.
This is Stephen Spielberg's magnum opus in my opinion. Easily one of the greatest movies ever made.
I think he would agree with you.
Hook is my fave
If you thought the ghetto massacre scene felt too long, imagine how it felt to live through it. I don't mean to come at you - I know you got the movie and were feeling the feelings - but I do think Spielberg captured the experience of these events just about as well as anyone could, including the "why won't this end, when will it be over" part. He got it right enough for survivors and their families to have a hard time watching this movie, by many accounts.
Btw, my interpretation of the little girl in the red coat is that she represents the moment that Schindler's empathy kicked in, when he could no longer stay blind to what was happening. It was his turning point, even though he wasn't aware of it in the moment. He starts to change from that point onward.
Also, I agree with you - these people were incredibly stupid. A person has to be almost too stupid to breathe and walk at the time to do what most of them did every day. There's gaslighting, which can break a person's mind to the point that they lose their ability to think rationally, and there's simple evil by which a person does this kind of thing knowingly and purposefully, like Amon Goeth. But then there are all the people who "go along to get along," who just give up their own agency and their sense of self to ride the coattails of a strongman. People for whom making moral decisions is to much work, so they just abandon all personal responsibility and do whatever they are told, and believe they will be taken care of by their leader, not because he's proven he'll do it, but because buying into whatever he says is easier than really thinking about any of it. That kind of stupidity is a kind of evil, too, and in the end, in history, many of those idiots learned the world has no sympathy for it. "I was just following orders" is no defense.
Amon Goeth's grandaughter is actually black and she discovered the truth about her grandfather while researching on her ancestry, the shock put her in a deep depression but she later recovered and wrote a book about it.
Her name is Jennifer Teege.
very interesting book
This movie, for obvious reasons, really wore on Spielberg. He'd call none other than Robin Williams to help cheer him up. Robin would talk to him, go through characters & just riff to raise his spirits. ❤
If you ever doubt that Steven Spielberg is the GOAT, you just have to remind yourself that he released this and Jurassic Park THE SAME YEAR. Blows my mind every time I think about it.
Liam Nielsen plays Oscar Schindler, great actor
For someone so knowledgeable and articulate I'm pretty shocked you don't recognise Liam Neeson, the main actor. He has been an A-B list actor for the last 20 years at least. This movie is highly regarded as one of Steven Spielbergs best works, if not his best. Honestly should probably be a 10 on IMDB.
Also someone else suggested 12 Angry Men, I would also highly back that suggestion, both these movies are the only two black and white movies I've ever seen, and I was shown both during my secondary school years. Both fantastic movies.
I've seen a few excellent B&W movies. The thing is, they draw you into the story so well, you don't realise 😂 but then, I grew up watching the older Twilight Zone programmes so B&W isn't a stretch for me x
I was a grad student when this film came out, and a couple of my friends & I went to see it on opening weekend. We didn't go in blind by any means - in fact, I had read the nonfiction book "Schindler's List" a few weeks earlier. We had planned to hang out at my place after the movie & have a few drinks. That didn't happen, of course. We each had a reaction very similar to yours. Nobody said a word on the ride back to my apartment and for a few minutes once we we were home. When we finally began talking, it was about how hard it was to verbalize any of the things we wanted to say about how we were feeling and how genius & brilliant the film was. Eventually, after a few more minutes passed, I made each of us a drink, and we toasted the film, Schindler, Spielberg, the cast, the Jewish people and a couple more I can't remember until our glasses were empty. My friends left, and I spent the rest of the night in shock and contemplation.
Probably one of the greatest movies you can only watch once, because it is so powerful, heavy and heartbreaking. Spielberg is probably one of our greatest living film makers today. He's also made films such as Saving Private Ryan, Lincoln, Jaws,ET the Extraterrestrial, Close Encounters Of the Third Kind, just to name some. He has a crazy catalogue of films from just about every genre.
I told myself I would never watch this movie again after the first time, but as the mother of two sons I felt it was my responsibility to watch it again with each of them (nine years apart) when they were learning about World War Two in school. It’s good to learn facts but reinforcing those facts with the stories of real people in such an emotional way won’t be forgotten.
The actor portraying Amon Goeths (the leader of the concetration camp) did such a good job that survivors who were invited on the set needed to be consoled because it woke their memories. And his character needed to be toned down, Spielberg said they had to do it since he would have appeared as a comic villain otherwise. Sometimes real live writes scarier stories and more vile villains than any work of fiction ever could
Ralph Fiennes
He also plays another snake character: Voldemort.
@@jennifergawne3002 Thanks! I keep forgetting his name XD
Because he made a conscious effort to try to be that man. Method to the core.
@@mestupkid211986 Even Helen Hirsch's actress said in an interview she was scared of Fiennes when he was in character.
Amon Goeth was so much worse than this movie depicted, if you can believe it. When Spielberg talked to surviving Schindler Jews he had to tell them that half the things they told him Goeth did to them couldn't be put on screen because it was so horrific the audience might not believe it. He was so cruel and bloodthirsty that the SS literally expelled him because he was too psychopathic! Let that sink in.
Liam Neeson is the lead actor, he is an actor worth checking out.
A great black and white movie to check out is 12 Angry Men starring Henry Fonda. Sidney Lumet is the director and he did an incredible job.
I definitely concur that Mr Boyd absolutely must see 12 Angry Men as soon as possible. A couple of others he must seen are Inherit the Wind and To Kill a Mockingbird.
It should be mandatory in civics. But the main antagonist is definitely the best actor in that movie, and he was very wary of taking that role due to the vicious nature of the roll. Think Mr Boyd would definitely applaud his acting prowess.
I actually despise Neeson as an actor because he's always Neeson in every movie. This is the exception.
Which version do you recommend?
@@joakimberg7897 Definitely the black and white version starring Henry Fonda...if you mean what version of 12 Angry Men. 💯
It's not wall jewelry - A Mezuzah is a small, decorative case which Jewish households attach to the right doorframe of the entrance to their home. And in fact, the word 'mezuzah' means doorpost in Hebrew. This practice has been in Jewish tradition for thousands of years, and it plays an important cultural role in defining Jewish identity. This is a masterpiece and a true story. There were a few people who risked much to help.
Another Spielberg WWII masterpiece is Empire of the Sun, based on the autobiography of Jim Ballard. Part of the Japanese campaign in the Pacific that I was unfamiliar with.
Great Film 👏👏👏👏
A young Christian Bale, showing a hint of what was to come.
I always get the feeling that when Goethe was pardoning people he looked in the mirror and was about to pardon himself when he had a moment of clarity, and for the briefest of moments he saw himself for what he truly was (a monster) and realised he was unpardonable.
He then immediately buried this moment of self reflection, embraced his evil self and resumed his monstrous ways.
It's just how I see that scene anyway.
I like your take on that scene. I always took it that Goethe after reflection on himself then pardoned himself so he could go on with him evil ways.
Goeth or Göth, not Goethe
I think that is such a brilliant and insightful observation I completely believe you are correct. It completely explains his whole change in character. It's so Brilliant And now that you said ITIT seems So obvious. Thank you very much for your Your comment
In high school my class took a field trip to watch this movie, directly followed by a trip to the Dallas Holocaust and Human Rights Museum. One of the saddest and most depressing days of my life. Edited to add: I believe Liam Neeson was beat out for best actor by Tom Hanks performance in Philidelphia somehow. That was also the last time I watched the Academy Awards because I believe Neeson got shafted.
That's why I don't like arts competitions. If Neeson had won, Hanks would have gotten shafted, because his performance in Philadelphia was gorgeous. It's pointless and silly to compare performances in different films, and it's only developed as a marketing tool for the studios.
Tom Hanks did a fantastic job on Philadelphia, so him winning the Oscar is understandable. Tommy Lee Jones winning for The Fugitive over Ralph Fiennes, however, is something I really can't understand.
that's nothing compared to the Academy Awards the following year. "Shakespeare in Love" won the Best Picture award over "Saving Private Ryan". The latter changed the way war movies are made. There is a "before" and "after". I was so pissed that I haven't watched the Oscars since. The reason "Shakespeare" won is that was the year Weinstein pioneered the political lobbying campaign for the Oscars.
@@Serai3 I agree. Sporting events are contests. Art is something else.
The use of shadow in this movie is spectacular. As it’s in black and white, you have to pay attention to how the scene is lit. In the beginning Schindler is shown in mostly shadow, to show how ‘murky’ his character is. As opposed to the end when he’s shown in more light. It’s even more noticeable when he’s in the scenes with Göth. Spectacular use of light and shadow.
Spielberg is one of the greatest storytellers in the medium of film.
One movie that might equal it is The Color Purple, also by Spielberg.
I was in 8th grade when Schindler's List came out, and I remember that it raised some controversy about the depiction of concentration camps in film. No matter what emotional response an audience member might have to a place like Auchwitz, or Dachau, or any of the hundreds of other such places in a cinematic setting, there's nothing in the cinematic experience that could ever fully convey the pain, misery, and terror of actually living through that reality. I understand that side of the argument, but I still think Schindler's List is an important film because it shows that not everyone was willing to completely surrender their humanity to the madness of the Third Reich.
Many survivors have said that the element that cannot be conveyed in words or pictures is the stink
That's true of any movie that depicts a real thing. You could say it not just about movies, but about any art. The point isn't realism, it's _interpreting_ the events of history, and that can only be done through the lens of an artist's eye and mindset. Even documentaries are interpretations of reality, dependent on what the filmmaker wants to say.
The thing he took off the doorframe is a mezuzah; it contains a scroll of scripture from the Torah as a blessing on the home.
Probably the most cold and soulless take on this film that I've ever seen
I can't watch this movie without crying, and I rarely cry. It's just too personal and so well done. Thank you ❤. Hugs from Chile 🇨🇱
Liam Neeson portrayed Oskar Schindler
Ralph Finnes portrayed Amon Goeth (he’s more famous for being Voldemort in Harry Potter movies 4-8)
You're probably the first person to watch this with a dry eye...
Kraków, Poland Principal photography began on March 1, 1993, in Kraków, Poland, with a planned schedule of 75 days. The crew shot at or near the actual locations, though the Płaszów camp had to be reconstructed in a nearby abandoned quarry, as modern high rise apartments were visible from the site of the original camp.
Incredible reaction. It was a joy to see how much this film affected you.
Next, I'd watch One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest. Another phenomenal all-time great.
My Godparents survived in similar fashion; my Godfather was ‘permitted’ to work on tanks/tank parts. My Godmother, for whom I am named, would at times speak of horrors personally witnessed, but I’ve always- even as a young girl- felt she held the worst locked away, inside herself to protect us. It’s just so hard to imagine there was a worse w what she did share😔
After the war they immigrated to America. My Godfather would go on to create, invent, and patent many things- some of which are still used around the world in daily living today. When I imagine the descendants of his torturers benefiting from same I think- ‘Redemption- with grace.’
They were grateful all of the days of their lives for the opportunities they felt America afforded them.
Extraordinarily strong and resilient people… and I speak not only of my Godparents❤️🩹
THANK YOU for reacting to this amazing and incredibly important film.
Stay safe & love big💖
Spielberg filmed Schindler's List in Poland where everything happened. The camp scenes were filmed in the quarry next to the actual Plazow Camp. Amon Goetz' actual villa is still there and someone lives there. The reason for the color to black and white was because Spielberg said that color and light are life. The girl in the red coat was the focal point of where Schindler starts to really wake up to everything around him.
Raoul Wallenberg was a Swedish diplomat to Hungry & he set up safe houses & handed out passports that only Swedish citizens would possess . He managed to rescue 8 or 9 thousand Jews from the Nazis . In January 1945 he went to the military headquarters of the Soviet army & was never heard from again .
My mom is 92 and remembers. Those men were just plain evil...
The actor who played Isaac Stern is Ben Kingsley. Schindler was played by Liam Neeson. I didn't mean to write so much but once I started I couldn't stop.
They say history may not repeat, but it sure does rhyme
Its happening again, different but the same.
To show Spielberg's talent, this came out the same year he did Jurassic Park. Two somewhat different films! By the way, John Williams also showed his verslitiy in scoring those two (plus Star Wars, Superman, Indiana Jones and loads more)
Another great movie (and real story) about the holocaust is Roman Polanski's "The Pianist" (great story, great photography, great color grading, great oscar winning lead actor Adrien Brody).
Shindler's List, The Pianist and Valkyrie, with Tom Cruise, remember us there had been heroes among nazis too, when they woke up themselves about what "the mustache man" intentions were really on about, and they deserve to be remembered.
Anyway, the little girl in red coat represents the turning point of Oscar Shindler, from a business man to a people savior. When he sees her, he understands what was really going on and who he was really financing and supporting.
The sobering irony in this film is in spite of this film's warning in history, it keeps happening... Rwanda, Bosnia, Gaza, on and on and on.
From Wikipedia:
To Spielberg, the black and white presentation of the film came to represent the Holocaust itself: "The Holocaust was life without light. For me the symbol of life is color. That's why a film about the Holocaust has to be in black-and-white.”
That’s just one reason this movie by Steven Spielberg is a cinematic masterpiece because he is one of the best in the business and knows what he is doing.
Thanks for reviewing this movie.
This is one of the best films since "moving pictures" were created.
The arc of the character against the horrors of man's inhumanity to man is beautiful in filmmaking, and tragic in it's telling. The tragedy is that it's historically (mostly) accurate. And any inaccuracies are irrelevant.
Brilliant movie making. Powerful story.
Stellar cast and epic performances.
Sits atop a very short list (no pun) of the best of all time. I also think Mr Liam Neeson deserved the Oscar (again, no pun) that year, although it's difficult to deny Hanks for his role in Philadelphia.
Seems we're in violent agreement.
I appreciate that part of Mr L Boyd's brand is to go into each film with no information...and I enjoy that almost all the time...but there are a few movies that might call for slightly different treatment, even against the normal rules of the channel. It just seems to me that it would have been better for him to know that this is pretty much a true story...and that he should not be treating it like a fictional tale to be picked apart or made fun of. For instance, in a reaction to a different film his diatribe on kissing and Elvis and diseases at 41:39 would be wryly funny, but on this reaction to this movie it comes of as quite tonally off and out of place.
It will be very interesting to see his reaction to finding that out at the end.
My feelings exactly. I still haven't figured out if he is completely out of touch with what this movie was really about.I am Actually offended That He went into that direction about getting diseases from kissing people rather than staying focused on what was actually happening at that time and why And I don't think that has anything to do with the fact that I am Jewish
It is how it is ...the best most tragic, most emotional moving stories is told by actual life.
Although Schindler is in the movie portrayed as "the hero + Philantrop" which he definitively wasn´t...according to time witnesses who knew him personally it is stated that he was a selfish slimy but always charming opportunist in full bloom = he was no Nazi but colaborated with them willingly for his own benefit/in order to become wealthy and sort of influencial from early on BUT he had a very good "one of a kind feeling" for political situations so he noticed early on that the Nazis will take over everything so he sided with them from their very beginning as the Nazis got in power.. but he also noticed then after the first war years early on way before anyone else that the Nazi Regime will not last and therefore he saved then all those jews solely for his own benefit for the time after... because he basically was so deep involved that he had nothing to loose anymore because he was aware = either he get killed later by the allies as a high ranked Nazi collaborateur for sure when he does nothing - or - the Nazis will kill him when he get caught saving jews but with a small chance that he will not be caught until the war is over and the Nazis gone = So saving jews was simply just a better bet for his own life...but he then saved many people from death that is a fact and a given and for those who survived that hell (and for their descendants) solely because of him his actual motive is definitively irrelevant.
Interesting fact: In the scene where all the bodies are disinterred and burnt, you see a Nazi screaming and then firing his gun into the fire. That wasn't acting. That scene was incredibly hard for the actors to perform, and that guy finally snapped and started freaking out. I can't imagine what a horrific grind it must have been to act those roles in a film so committed to being as realistic as possible.
Goeth was not stupid or an idiot. He was venal and bloodthirsty, attributes that the war gave him permission to indulge. And that's why he couldn't figure out Schindler's motivations - because he simply wasn't wired that way. It just never occurred to him that the plan was to save the people simply in order to save them because it's not something he would ever have done. That's the thing with psychopaths; they have no ability to see anything from anyone else's perspective.
The reason the train ended up in Auschwitz had nothing to do with Goeth. It's because a central myth about the Third Reich is completely wrong, to wit, _these people were not efficient._ They were not well-organized and did not make good decisions. They were good at _seeming_ like that, but the regime was really crappy and disorganized. (The only reason they were able to pull all of this off at all was the massive amount of help, including new inventions, they got from IBM. Yeah, that IBM. You didn't think they did all this by themselves, did you?)
In an odd way, Schindler’s history of being a self-serving, amoral asshole ended up protecting him from exposure because Goethe and others were less likely to suspect what he was doing, and he knew how to continue playing the part.
This is one of those movies that will leave you speechless and unable to describe it other than “a masterpiece”
Studying history is so important. This will happen again 100 % guaranteed
These people are going to die of thirst and you're worried about them blowing germs on the icicles? And the boy who jumped into the outhouse pit. I'm fairly certain the last thing he was worried about was getting a staph infection.
"Wer nur ein einziges Leben rettet, rettet die ganze Welt" (Anyone who saves a life, saves the life of all humanity)
There is a holocaust museum in Schindler’s factory, the only color in this movie was the little girl in the red coat to represent the innocent victims from what I read, excellent reaction. Thank you
If you liked the main actor, Liam Neeson, you may want to watch Taken. It's an action movie.
Also another black&white movie you may like would be Sin City, it's based on a graphic novel I think.
I don't think there are movies out there that can beat Schindler's List in this genre to be honest
There’s no such thing as a scene that is too long; there are only attention spans that are too short.
Yeah...the "this scene was a little too long" kind of blew it for me...
Yeah.... I would argue that the fact that the scene "feels too long" is exactly how it should feel. It should feel like an eternity, because that's what it was for the real people.
He's kinda acted like it's a work of fiction.
Movies that might be in Schindler's List's league:
Inherit The Wind
12 Angry Men
Glory
Lincoln
Casablanca
Grave of the Fireflies(1988)
You have seen Liam Neeson before, he was the Jedi in Star Wars I - The Phantom Menace, he played Qui Gon. He has been in lots of films the last 30 years so you probably just did not recognize him.
The little girl in the red coat is supposed to represent innocence
I'm glad your new channel came across my feed!! Excellent movie to watch.... Hard watch.
Your reaction at the end... I felt that.
Thanks for sharing and for doing what you do!!
Watch it every year
9:52 this was shot in the early 90's, there were no digital film cameras and the film grain was not an added effect. Although technically it could have been done at that time (I believe ILM used optical film printers for merging Jurassic Parc scene elements) it would have made the movie silly expensive and complex when they could , and did, just shoot on black and white film stock.
11:00 you are probably right when it comes to film stock and lighting techniques from the 1950s and earlier but this was shot in the 1990s so that is some 40 years of continuous technical development and improvement.
I challenge you to watch another black and white that will captivate you. It's called 12 Angry Men (1957). It's very different from Schindler's List. It's a fictional movie, based on a stage play, and it's very dialogue driven. It is widely considered (along with Schindler's List) among the greatest films of all time. Someone who is as attentive to the technical details and artistry of lenses and lights as you, should definitely consider watching it. Most of it was shot in a single room. It was remade in the 1990s with a very impressive cast, and is worth a watch as well, but the original (also a very impressive cast) is a masterpiece.
When Spielberg approaches John Williams about composing the music for the film Williams refused saying it deserved a better composer than him Spielberg agreed but said they were all dead so Williams became the composer.
I’m 43, my grandparents were in the service during the war. My parents are baby boomers. We were shown this movie in high school. We knew about the holocaust but seeing it portrayed like this was still shocking. I’ll show it to my kids someday.
“That guy” who played the lead was Liam Neeson. Yeah, THE Liam Neeson. Very surprised you didn’t know that.
If you like history you should read about Sir Nicholas Winton (the British Schlinder) and Angel Sanz Briz (the Spanish Schlinder). There were more who did what they could to save lives. There will be a movie released about Winton named One life.
There was another nazi in China, who saved a bunch when Japan sacked Nanking.
If you like History, you shouldnt get information fro mfictional books like this. You should read the balflour declaration!
This was filmed in all the real locations where possible. They even reconstructed the Plaszow concentration camp basically on thee same site. The exterior shots of Schindlers factory were actually filmed there (its a museum now). They were even able to actually film at Auschwitz-Birkenau.
No, they were not allowed to film at Auschwitz.
Spielberg reconstructed the site a few kilometers away.
@daedalron They reconstructed the site right outside the main gate of Auschwitz Birkenau. That way they could film a train coming through the gate without altering anything inside the camp or disrespecting the site. The scenes of the barracks were filmed elsewhere.
You need to watch more films. Most of the best American films were made before 1994.
One of the strongest guys I know, physically and mentally, went to visit Auschwitz to pay respect, his family are Jewish and they lost relatives there too. He came back a changed man, said it broke him but is a visit everyone should make to fully appreciate the horror that took place there and how evil man can be.
I felt the same after visiting the house Anne Frank was hiding in 😢😢
The actor who plays Schindler is Liam Neeson. He's an extremely good actor and among my top 3 favorites.
I can understand people learning about Schindler from the movie for the first time, but I get irked when some reactors [not this one] seem to be learning about the Shoah itself from the movie. Obviously Spielberg wanted to teach everyone about both, but people should really have learned the overall history in school, not from a movie. When people are genuinely shocked at what they see the Nazis doing and how they think it tells me their education in history and politics was severely lacking. Obviously, that doesn't apply to you at all.
"Logo of the mustache man" 😂
Liam Neeson sir is Schindler. History as applied to war, is focus of a band called 🎸"Sabaton"🎸. 1916, Bismarck and Christmas Truce to name a few. Thank you for watching this excellent movie.
This movie is incredible! You may like the Taken movies with Liam. They're great.
This movie is 30 years old. Ive seen it lots of times and own it. Im here for a reaction. I get i dont get to see it with u cause of copyright and thats fine. But dont pause and manslplain. Just watch the movie bro. Like literally no reactor constantly pauses movies to explain stuff we already see. Thats what the comments are for.
The movie is on Amazon Prime video and Apple TV. Nobody will interrupt you if you just go watch the movie there instead of trying to watch free movies on RUclips.
Band of Brothers the tv mini series is at the same level also as portraying real life people and events.
The film was shot in Poland and other locations where the real events took place
So you've never eaten birthday cake as a child at a party? btw germs at an early age build immunity.
I never wore a mask and watched all the other vaccinated people get sick every few months....it makes me mad...there's a reason we have an immune system
28:16 Was Schindler's List filmed on location? (Wikipedia)
Principal photography began on March 1, 1993, in Kraków, Poland, with a planned schedule of 75 days. The crew shot at or near the actual locations, though the Płaszów camp had to be reconstructed in a nearby abandoned quarry, as modern high rise apartments were visible from the site of the original camp.
I am sorry. We were required to go see this masterpiece in school and this experience broke in half. How a story, and partly because it is history of course, can be so eloquent and devastating at the same time is unreal.
The scene where Schindler is telling Stern that he doesn't want any of their ammo to fire. He didn't put them at risk by just making duds and hoping they didn't get caught. He used his own money to buy ammo and shells and pass them off as their own. This meant that of course they were still releasing the live ammo to be used, but they were not adding to it. It's in the scene, but I don't think you heard it. Schindler did not want anything he made to kill anyone.
Being aware of your aversion to black and white films, i am so glad you took a chance on this one, knowing that the films impeccable cinematography would win you over.
There’s nothing I enjoy more than watching people with intelligence react to these movies. Thank you, sir, for a highly enjoyable reaction.
a once-in-a-life-time-must-see-movie, so We may never forget!
RIP Herr Schindler. Your humanity and respect for life will never be forgotten...
You should check out the story of Nicholas Winton. Another little known story of a hero of WWII not by fighting, but by saving lives. I just found out they’ve made a movie about his story released a few weeks ago called “One Life” starring Anthony Hopkins.
Love that ending!!! And how u wrapped up your reaction! Btw that was Liam neeson and he is by far one of my favorite actors! Please do natural born ki**ers next!! I'm gonna keep bugging your lives until u do lol I'm in prison and don't have a credit card to do donations but if u take green dots I got u! (It's like a pre paid credit card easy to access in prison)
This absolutely is Spielbergs magnus opus And a reminder to those unaware that Mr. Liam Neeson is a topclass actor, that doesnt just do action movies.
Our school and many others went to see it when it came out, and ever since it has been used in classrooms. Art or Historyclass.
One of my favorites it's a hard watch but beautiful .
my high school teacher had us watch this in class. we had to have our parents sign forms, even in 11th grade
Spielberg said he was very much influenced by the 1985 Russian WW2 film Come and See which is also amazing
To give it that film look, they shot it on film.
Yeah, that's a HEAVY one. I've only watched it 3 times, and can't do it on my own accord just because. I can only sit through this if I must show this to someone.
I think the word you were looking for in describing this movie was Masterpiece, this movie is a Masterpiece, it’s my personal #1. If you are looking other movies on this level, I would say, Saving Private Ryan (also a Spielberg film), Shawshank Redemption or The Godfather 1&2
Hey, MrLBoyd, I really love your videos. You are watching and commenting with such passion, such eloquence, pointing out so many details, a real pleasure. You seem like a guy I really would like to meet an drink a beer or water or white Hennessy, but I really don't know if you would want to, becaume I am german... 😀
P.S: Oskar Schindler bought real ammunition to present it as it's own. After the war, he was very poor and some jews helped him literally not to starve. (Unless many of the mustache people, who became rich in the new Germany)

Oh…I see. You never heard slightly drunk Finnish person before.
That was one of the most terrifying moments in my life. And my pale Arti was actually happy and told about his son’s volleyball match.
Mainly because Finnish language have same feature as Estonian, Hungarian and Albanian - they are their own thing.
Spielbergs most personal masterpiece because of his Jewish heritage
Spielberg took this film seriously on set no one was allowed to play around on the set during filming
Liam Neeson played Qui-Gon Jinn in Star Wars movies and Ra’s al Ghul in at least one Batman movie.
Stellan Skarsgård was considered for the Oskar Schindler role.
Thank you for making this, love all the way from Israel ❤
A masterclass in filmmaking
Requiem For A Dream is right up there in gut-punches of a film. Not as universally beloved but I also had a pretty great experience watching Life Of Pi.
The cousin of my wife's grandfather was the jeweler who made the ring at the end of the film.
Couple of of historic items:
The showers and gas chambers could not be confused. The showers were open air.
Stern was a combination of about 4 people one of who was Stern.
Schindler's Jews. Supported him when times were difficult and paid for his body to be flown to and buried in Jerusalem.He is the only Nazi party member who is buried in Israel.
If you want another historic film based on a true story that you have not heard about yet, Defiance staring Liev Schreiber and Daniel Craig. It is the Story Bout the Bielski resistance group in Belarus.
The actor that play's Chlinder's character is Liam Neson
Liam Neeson should've won the Oscar for that. It went to Tom Hanks intead in 1994.
Tom Hanks won for Philadelphia, which was deserved and is a mandatory watch.
The movie was filmed in Krakow, Poland, so pretty much the real place most of the stuff happened.
