[@slayer8actual]

I understand what you are saying and agree with it, but I think there is also a little bit more to it than just that. Schindler also knows that his factory; even though a factory that is making goods for the German war machine, it is also a venue to save and protect countless workers. He needs that factory as much as that factory needs him to run it. He can't save lives without it, and if anyone else but him ran it, there would not be those lives saved in the same way he is doing it. And saving his Plant Manager is closely tied to saving his ability to run his factory the way he needs to save many others. So yes, if he lost his Plant Manager, where would he be?

Interesting read of it. The typical one is understanding Schindler was all about himself and his inconvenience at this stage of the story.

Then they see the nazi pin, and he takes their name and says "Here's my name. You'll both be in Southern Russia before the end of the month!" And then they completely change their tune right after. I think this scene takes place somewhere between October 1942 to March 1943. That's when Russia enlisted help from their old ally, the Winter. And it got cold... Stupid cold. Just before the winter of '42, Germany had extended as far as they could into Russia, but they were being beaten back, and Hitler forced them to not retreat. The entire 6th Army was encircled in Stalingrad and had to surrender, on top of the rest of the Red Army pushing back hard on the Eastern Front.

I've only seen this movie once in my life because of how strong it was. It's one of my favorite movies because of how brutal it's execution was and just how heroic Oskar Schindler was. I have an undying respect for that man because he went out of his way to save as many Jews as he possibly could from certain death.

Schindler: "What if I'd gotten here five minutes later? Then where would I be?!" Stern, thinking: "Where would I be?"

[@chase5860]

I did find this scene very humourous. Watching the clerk and officer go scurrying after Schindler. But the horrific undertone of this scene is how Stern was lucky enough to walk off. Yet every other person on that train was guaranteed to die. Makes my skin crawl

[@jeffsnell2795]

"What if i got here 5 minutes later then where would i be" is just another small example of how his character changed throughout the film...Here all he cared about was himself and did not care about the welfare of stern...He would never say something like this later in the movie

[@-Anthracite]

I think he put on a role he did care for stern he could have as many of accountants as he wanted but he liked him personally

[@fae206]

you see the way he gets emotional but has to play it up in front of the others. he was not supposed to show softness or kindness for jewish people because they were not considered people. same thing happens with the lady's parents in the movie

[@-Anthracite]

@@fae206 exactly what i forgot to say schindler walked a very thin line in public he had to throw out as many cold lines as he could so no one would be suspicious or else they would hang him with a board around his neck saying ''volksverräter'' or something like that

[@TheClassyArchitect]

The fact that there was enough space to move in those boxcars makes this unfortunately unrealistic. Most were absolutely jam packed. Many died on the way to their destination due to exposure to heat in the summer and freezing in the winter, starvation, and sickness. The trains were so over-encumbered by the mass of people that their travel speed was very slow, prolonging an already hellish journey.

I think you are missing the point my friend, and kind of siding with the Nazis.

It's interesting to watch the transformation of Schindler throughout this movie. In this scene, he is still only concerned about his own self-interests and benefiting himself through Stern and the other Jews.

I love how he deflects his concern to be all about himself and his business "Then where would I be!" Because its so obvious he cares. I mean, not to impugn Yitzaks skills , he IS a brilliant manager, but its not like nobody else could be raised up to take his place at work, and thats true if most people, even very smart or creative ppl in unique jobs.
