Film Lesson: "Schindler's List"

This movie illustrated the version that had less of an impact on me because it wasn't as cruel as the real thing was. It was more of a movie in which the Jews weren't treated as badly and not only that, but at the end of the war, the people looked nothing like the documentary. Something that is powerful to me in the movie is how a German Nazi went from hating the Jews, to trying to save them from getting killed by working for him. They would make weapons and be feed well, unlike the Labor camps and the eventual death camps. There still were some powerful scenes in this movie, such as Auschwitz was first made, and when the little girl died and you saw her body being thrown into the giant fire. There was also when the Germans were taking the Jews out of Krakow Ghettos, the mass exterminations and sending them to the labor camps. Examples of images that will stay in my head from this movie is the little girl wondering around while everybody was getting killed. The fear and the look on her face was so dramatic and when the children were hiding, and they went as low as to go to the bathrooms and try to hide there. This scared me alot and made me realize how badly they really had it. Words could never describe how bad they had it, so the best thing to do was the movie because it inspired me to think differently about the what the Nazi's did.
