I'm just so happy this movie is not in color I think this movie would have been more brutal if it Was in color. Also the holocaust is the reason why Hitler lost the war. They were wasting so much manpower resources and trains transporting Jews to the concentration camps in the Death camps Instead of transporting materials to their own army.

[@Eric4Lego]

The most horrifying part of this movie for me is when the Germans take the children away from the camp on the truck. The children think that they are off on an adventure but the screaming frantic parents know that in reality they are off to be gassed or shot.

[@lucillebluth2616]

I agree, seeing that in cinema was horrifying

[@Atlastheyote222]

This happened to my great grandmother's family, the children were taken to be "germanised", meaning they looked 'aryan' enough to be integrated into the 3rd reich. I don't know what happened to them or if they survived the war, great grandmother never saw them again and didn't even talk about them to my nana until she was on her deathbed.

A ww2 related bit of nightmare fuel I remember isn’t in a film, it’s a video game. The Soviet campaign in Call of Duty World at War shows the Soviets becoming more bloodthirsty as they enter Germany. They execute prisoners, and in one part, you have to decide on what to do with surrendered German soldiers, and the only decisions are either shooting them, or burning them with molotovs.

One part that the movie did not portray, is that Oskar Schindler was trying to obtain weapons for his workers. The book discusses this and I would have liked to see Spielberg show this, as well. Schindler wasn't just trying to protect the Jews, he was also trying to give them a chance to fight back.

[@jonmt12]

It would have been good to show some glimpse of the Jewish resistance as well.

[@Michaelonyoutub]

Yes it would have been nice, but knowing how terrible some people are around the holocaust, they would probably use it as justification for killing them. By not showing it, it emphasizes the true unjustifiable slaughter of innocents.

Say what a you a guys want, Ralph’s portrayal of Amon was phenomenal and chilling

[@schizoidboy]

What was scary about his performance was there was a touch of normalcy to him. He acts like all of us when we have jobs and people were stuck with, but unlike the rest of us he's essentially given the license to do what he wants including murdering others. Imagine being given not just the authority but also the freedom to commit brutal acts. Being given that absolute power he uses it to become inhuman. What Ralph Fiennes does is play a human character whose lost his soul, while it was dramatized it showed him trying to forgive himself but he can't because he lost his humanity completely, and afterwards murders a boy who couldn't clean his tub. As in the movie Amon was hanged for his crimes by the Poles and as it was shown it wasn't an easy execution.

[@glazersout4272]

If he didn't win an Oscar for that performance, then there is no performance worthy of an Oscar. He WAS Amon Goeth.

[@m1co294]

​@@glazersout4272 Apparently when a survivor of the Plaszow concentration camp visited the set and saw Ralph Fiennes as Goeth, they started shaking cause of how reminiscent he was to him. Amon Goeth was apparently much worse in actuality.

[@Colgate64]

Incredibly realistic. He deserved an Oscar for acting excellence

[@radioactiverat8751]

God the ending is so powerful and so sad. He has this sudden break in character and the cool, calm, and collected man we've seen over the course of the film who handled himself extremely well along some of the most evil people in history, begins to break down after years of keeping up the facade of someone untouched by the horrors he has seen. What if he saved one more? The question haunts him, and he begins panicing and in a way blaming himself for not saving more. Liam Neeson does a fantastic job as Oskar Schindler, and that doesn't even touch the rest of the cast as well. Ralph Finnes perfectly portrays exactly what a man like Amon Goeth would be. Someone who revels in the slaughter, not the pardon that Oscar tries to convice him to do. Extremely powerful film that I recommend as a must watch.

[@Colgate64]

Finnes was so convincing that a survivor from Schindler's factory (who was on the set) almost fainted and recoiled from Finnes as being identical to Goeth. Finnes deserved an Oscar for his gut-wrenching performance of pure evil.

[@rud5408]

It's one of these movies that I can watch only one time despite its greatness. Like "Come and See" or "12 years a Slave" the lingering on human suffering and cruelty while necessary to be depicted just ruins my mood. It's still a fantastic achievement.

I agree with ya. Movies like Saving Private Ryan, 12 Years a Slave, Schindler's List, United 93, Barefoot Gen, Come & See, the Pianist, Dunkirk, and even more hopeful films like Hacksaw Ridge and Unbroken are extremely impactful and appreciated by many, but watching them even once is pretty much an impossible task to accomplish for some.

[@pogosmama1]

Come and See kept me awake for several nights in a row as well as 12 years a Slave and indeed Schindler’s List. There are others I could mention, too, without a doubt. The previous comment that Schindler’s list was watered down may be true in partial respect, but I think that part of that may be that there was so much to pack in a single film, it all can’t be depicted in one film. I do know that it being actually filmed in Auschwitz broke many of the actors. Some had had relatives die there and they just lost it and others just lost it because of just being there. When I say lost it, I mean they really lost it, and had to leave the filming and Spielberg had professional psychiatrists to help them and some were scarred for life (whether they had a personal connection or not). Ben Kingsley said that there were many days where they were only given minimal information about some filming days, and that the terror captured and displayed of him on film was literally him and the others with him reacting in real time to the events unfolding around him. He said the violence and insanity of what went into motion (as they didn’t know much at all about what was going to happen) was sheer hell. In one scene all he knew was that the guns held blanks but they fire with the same volume and intensity and the screaming soldiers and SS, etc… sent them all into immediate panic and what you see on film was real-time reaction to absolute fear. He further stated that in the moment it was like he had slipped in time and was really there. Some of the footage in those scenes were taken by Spielberg with a single camera as he walked through the mayhem, and without massive cameras, etc… Kingsley said he didn’t notice Spielberg because of the pandemonium all around everyone. That must have been real nightmare fuel, and given the number of actors that freaked out, I believe it truly was. With all of that being said, and with the sacrifice to their well-being that the actors endured (and Spielberg and everyone in the filming crew crying an awful lot) Schindler’s List is one of the most important films ever made about the Holocaust, and hopefully inspired people to learn and study the absolute terror that happened and also recognize the barbarity of how humans can treat other humans. There aren’t words. There are so many examples of such barbarity and not just in the past. It happens now, and we have to draw the lessons and change our behavior as a species or we will exterminate ourselves. We are the last species of humans to walk the planet. THE LAST OF OUR GENUS AND SPECIES. THE LAST. And we are pretty frail in spite of our big brains which have accomplished unbelievable feats, but we must treat everyone with respect and behave with honor so we don’t blow ourselves to hell, which we could easily do. I love you all, and hopefully we all make it. Thank you, Steven Spielberg and all of the others who have taken on the burden of reminding us who we are and have been as a lesson and a warning.

My Grandfather was there during the liberation of Bergen Belsen. When I asked him what he felt, he hesitated to tell me at first. But after a few minutes of silence. I felt his presence get hotter, like a burning hatred in him. He told me he felt a burning seething anger at the depths of cruelty humanity can sink too. And disgust. He wanted to see Germany raised to the ground. Then he told me after he felt that, a great sense of shame washed over him for thinking that. He said it's a strange thing to go from one extreme emotion to another in such a short time.

This film was so well made and casted that when a survivor of Płaszów, Mila Pfefferberg, came to the set and encountered Ralph Fiennes in his SS uniform she began to violently shake and suffer a mental breakdown, as he looked almost identical to the monster who had tormented her.

[@handsomejamesgrandinternet2106]

Sorry, I'm a Ukrainian and all of my views and thoughts would probably be a little affected. You see the horror of the concentration camps through this movie, I see them through my local news. The girl in a red coat for me is 3yo girl called Lisa, she lived in Vinnytsia. I've seen a photo of her torn dead body with her mother's blown-off foot lying nearby. I've seen such footage on mass already and I'm ashamed to say that I'm being desensitized as well as most of us, but what I won't ever forget is comments of russians cheering. Again, I'm sorry. The one thing going through my mind consistently was "yes, this is real, people can do that and feel some sick catharsis". This video angers me, it fills me with sorrow, it depresses the shit out of me, and sickens me to the core. I don't want the reason for this movie to exist. Together we could prevent it from happening again. But we did not. Never stop raging at it and never ever forget.

​ @Martin Hedgecoke, @The Camocampaindude Thank you, ithe support is very kind and important. But I consider myself more of lucky ones. I'm not a combatant nor do I live under occupation. I live in Zaporizhzhya (50 clicks from Zaporizhzhyan Nuclear powerplant) and around 15-20 clicks from the frontline. If russians destroy a nuclear powerplant, which they are attempting , let's just say, I'd consider myself luckier than most of Europe. There is no PTSD or bad dreams for me, and I was actively bombed like 3 or 4 times through all of the war. That's an easy going by this war standards, so I am not the Ukrainian who needs support the most. I would ask to go be open minded to evacuated ones, as they are shy and not exactly bilingual, if I'm being honest. But I consider my people very straight-forward fun-loving and respectful (BTW, if a Ukrainian by any chance offers to help on a kitchen , ask them for Meat "Pirogi" stress on last sillable with "Smetana" you'll thank me later. What I wanted to say, just don't let dictator have an ounce of power. People don't become "bloody authocratic jackasses" geberally, they are born that way.

[@snowangelnc]

Two years ago I showed clips from a Holocaust movie to my middle school history class. Soon afterward I got an angry email from a parent. The principal had been immediately contacted to, because the next message was from the principal calling me to his office. When I got there he told me he wanted an explanation for the complaint he'd gotten that I'd been showing students inappropriate movies with graphic violence. I was taken aback, because I'd actually been very careful to only show scenes that didn't have nudity or blood on screen - border line PG / PG-13. I explained that I'd shown a video as part of a recent lesson on the Holocaust. He asked to see it, so I sent him the video file. He got back with me the next day and agreed that there was nothing in it that was inappropriate for a young teenager. It wasn't until a year later that I found out that I'd been dealing with a Holocaust denier, and that the complaint was coming from the attitude that the film was some fictional piece of shock value that I'd shown the students just for kicks. It wasn't my methods for teaching the Holocaust that the parent was upset about, but the fact that I'd been teaching it at all in an effective way. The one bright spot is that I've only had this happen one time. I'm so concerned though about what's going to happen as the years go by and this goes farther and farther back in history.

They made us watch this movie in middle school (something I think should actually be more common) and the image of the old man's blood seeping into the snow fused itself into my brain back then at age 13, and even now it's such a powerful and haunting image in my memory (without having watched the film since) that makes me stop for a second every time it pops into my mind and think of all the innocent folks they killed in those camps.

I'm glad she did, as I needed to pause the film so many times to cry, to walk away before I threw up, to stop the rage growing inside me.

[@airborngrmp1]

Of all the aspects of this film to dig itself deep into my psyche and live forever, the image of the German officer in his handsome uniform playing the piano exceptionally well as barbarous, atavistic slaughter takes place indiscriminately around him was probably the most impactful. I've thought about that soldier a lot. Young men such as him that put such effort into their personal appearances tend to come from specific socioeconomic backgrounds, did this young man come from a well off family? He clearly received and excelled at piano lessons as a child, was his father or mother a musician, or did they hire a musician to tutor their son? He was wearing an SS uniform, rather than serving in the Wehrmacht - the SS were political forces, subordinate to the Nazi Party rather than the state of Germany. It is difficult to see the officer's rank, but he clearly is in command in some capacity, as he is wielding an instrument of music rather than one of death as his compatriots are doing. Did it take family connections to attain such rank at a young age in such a politically prestigious organization? I've read about the photos, letters and trophies mailed home by German soldiers and officers participating in the massacres of Jews in the east (it was an open secret in German society, "The German War: A Nation Under Arms, 1939-1945" by Nicholas Stargardt covers it extensively), were his parents proud of him, or concerned about how it might change their son? Did they pause to acknowledge the human beings that might suffer due to his actions, or only concern themselves that he not allow doing his duty to affect him negatively? What exactly did it take to turn a young man from presumably a good bourgeois family, who likely went to a good school and read humanist tracts and maybe some of the best German philosophers of the 18th-20th centuries, into an officer in charge of the murder and enslavement of the Jews of Krakow? Did he ever question any of it?

Well done! Just finished watching this for the first time on Sunday and it was a experience I've never really had before. I've seen a lot of tough movies (seen 60% of the 80's anti nuke films and a few of the video nasties,) but this movie broke me in ways I never have experienced before. I had to break it up into parts to properly watch it, it was that hard. The Liquidation of the Ghetto scene was the hardest part though. I've cried very rarely to films (the OG Terminator, The Crow, and The Wrestler,) are the only times I have before; but that mass machine gunning scene was freaking terrifying and I had to cut it off. Thankfully I reached the point of the first intermission that NBC had in 1997 when it premiered or else I woulda been screwed, but that scene made me cry and film never does. That was terrifying and some of the most screwed up things I've seen. Worst part is it's real and it all happened.. way scarier than any movie. The movie after the pile scene ended on a better note I thought. I got more of a positive vibe coming out of it than I expected.. it highlighted the best of humanity with Schindler's sacrifices. The ending scene is beautiful and has stuck out in my mind. Spielberg was genius for thinking of using that as the ending.

If it wasn't nightmare fuel it would be a disservice.

[@naturalwoman3552]

I saw this and the Boy with the Striped Pajamas 😢... haven't seen The Pianist yet...will watch it.

[@brianstanton6026]

Nightmare Fuel is an understatement when it comes to this amazing yet terrifying film. Just the history of this film and of the time itself is truly horrifying.

[@fortis3686]

Is it bad that this film reminded me that the Nazis got every bit of brutality that came to them? From the relentless bombing of their cities to the Red Army rampaging through Germany

[@jennybeard6341]

This film is a reminder to me just what hate can do. I feel hate for my fellow countrymen, and it’s history that shows me just how evil that can get. It’s a warning as well as a tribute.

[@tommywolfe2706]

Its easy to feel that horrible acts deserve other horrible acts. Its amazing to me that people look at the Nazi's, especially the soldiers and say "they didnt HAVE to follow orders, they could have refused".....(and gotten killed and their families made enemies of the state) but then very little thought is given to their families. Not all wives knew where their husbands were or if they were alive, they especially werent a part of the horrible acts. That goes double for the kids. There is not a single instance on this planet where a kid deserves to die as a result of what adults do. Even if my own son were murdered by a guy with a kid, I would never get satisfaction out of knowing that his kid died. Its too easy for everyone to lump the normal Germans in with Nazi's....I have been guilty of that in the past, but the reality is different.

@@tommywolfe2706 "This wasn’t always the case. Historian David H. Kitterman’s research on a group of 135 German soldiers who refused orders to kill Jews, POWs or hostages shows they suffered beatings and death threats for defying their superiors, but none were executed. Although insubordination was taken seriously, excuses that soldiers had “just been obeying orders” when they participated in Holocaust atrocities weren’t entirely true."

[@alessandrobenvenuti6551]

Schindler’s list is one of my favorite movies of all times. It’s not funny. It was never supposed to be. It’s not a movie that you put on screen to spend spare time. It’s not a movie that makes you shove snacks in your mouth. It’s beautiful when it needs to and hell on screen for most of the duration. This film is not about the carnage itself, it’s about a choice. It’s about compassion or lack there of. Schindler was a materialistic bourgeoise, a womanizer, an avid man that knew his deal and how to manipulate people. He was not perfect, but he changed and used his assets and exploited his vices/virtues to save as many people as he could. It wasn’t great, it still was slave labour after all. But he saved them all from certain death and this is the best thing that he could do. This is one of the few movies that I would classify as a mandatory human experience, as much as visiting a death camp. We should all learn and may we all be forgiven if we ever fail to do it.

I rented this movie when I was home sick when I was 14. My western civ teacher recommended it. I couldn't finish it. I got to the part with the girl in the red coat and turned it off. I still can't bring myself to watch it.

For anyone who wishes to watch the movie again, listen for the train whistles in the background as reminders of what is going on every day. I show this movie to my Holocaust class very year.

Wow! What an amazing commentary you present here! Thank you so much. I have relatives who perished in the Holodomor 1932 where 7 million mostly Jews were starved in Ukraine, intentionally, by Putin's hero, Joseph Stalin.

I do not say these words lightly... one of the many things that makes this movie so horrifying, is not what was shown, but the 'scientific' atrocities that weren't included

i think that video games didnt lower my reception to violence until i watched this movie and never cared about the brutal murder every few minutes

[@tuurderom2017]

An important note is that Schindler didn’t start his business to save the Jews but he evolved to respect and want to help them

[@alexanderromero9701]

This is a movie and topic that should never be censored to the public

Made me cry, but needed to watch this movie

[@kn3993]

I’ve never been a fan of the movie being in black and white since it was just weird seeing everything in wide screen and so crisp even though it was supposed to be like footage from that time. But it also paid off so well in the girl with the red coat scene. Also, I expected to see at least 1 holocaust denier troll in the comments but it still pissed me off. Srsly what’s wrong with those people? Edit: I remember reading a story from the pov of a Jew working under Schindler in my HS German class and that introduced me to this movie

[@golagiswatchingyou2966]

Well holocaust deniers tend to fall into 1. It never happened so it's oke to happen in the future 2. Disbelief in evil of humanity or the germans/nazi's 3. Simply being indifferent towards either the jews, people in general or morality at large. 4. Dark humor/trolling for fun to get attention.

[@iliasgrig1538]

I thought that the movie was amazing as well! Of course its tragic and awful, but the movie was made well and it really strikes you in the heart hard!

[@benpearson49]

I was about 15 when I saw Schindler's List. I wasn't prepared, I thought I was I'd been taught about the Holocaust, but I still wasn't ready. I'm not sure you can be. I think Schindler's List is as close to actually seeing the Jewish Holocaust, as it's ever going to be, and that's a good thing.

This made me vomit from a mix or fear, grief, and doom....I still can't feel my hands after watching this movie..

[@williammiller7799]

If I remember right, from the book, Schindler did not actually cry and break down at the end. He remained calm and was very proud of his efforts to save those people. Could he have saved more? Probably, but there could've been more suspicion and could've been more consequences, by the Nazi's, for his actions.

But one thing about not valuing non Aryans, the senseless Nazis fueled their own demise and the more people they killed, the sooner their end occurred. It's not much consolation, but think if they HAD won, what a horrible world it would be!

I love how whenever someone talks about the holocaust in general or for a video, it’s never even acknowledged on what the Jews did as a collective group to get themselves in that situation in the first place.
