Have you seen a lot of old sci-fi movies?
Some Tarsem Singh movies? Does some sci-fi trippy stuff. I think The Cell first
Diary of Anne frank starring Millie perkins
The bad seed Nancy Kelly
Hope that it's the New remake! Live action of Aladdin
In 2012, the number of Schindlerjuden descendants was updated to over 8,500. That line "There will be generations because of what you did" is no exaggeration.
Here in Germany this movie was shown in History class! I think that should be the case in every country!
Sweden does that too, at least only in my old history class back in 9th grade.
We watched it in 10th grade as well (also in Germany). It was disturbing. Never before or after have I seen a bunch of rowdy teens so quiet.
Germany despite their evil actions of the past really do a great job of teaching German citizens about their part in the Holocaust they are very careful to not glorify any of the that took place while on the other hand Japan does not do such a great job of teaching about their role in the mass genocide that took place during world war II!
We watched this back in history too in high school , USA , amazing movie about unfortunate events
I'm in the US and they showed us this movie in History as well. I agree, they need to show this movie everywhere.
Liam Neeson was robbed of the Best Actor Oscar that year. I cry at the end every single time. Even when I watch reactions, I cry. It's so heartbreaking.
Me too. Watched several reaction videos and I re-cry at every one.
And Ralph Fiennes, what a performance.
He lost to Tom Hanks in Philedelphia, I think and honestly, I wouldn't be able to pick between those two. They both gave amazing performances, respectively
@@AaronLin721Ralph Fiennes did a great amazing performance as usual in all he’s character like The Chef or a a Lord Voldemort on HP
If "One more person" doesn't break you I seriously question your humanity.
I feel it.
I won’t break, as I have already broken.
Chronic depression.
But I feel it.
@@Thraxraganharapollyus Please get some help. Please. You're worth it. Don't give up.
Spielberg was so distraught while filming this. He would call Robin Williams and make him tell funny stories just to get through the rest of the filming.
and watch Seinfeld episodes.
Actually, Robin called him.
R.I.P, Robin.
Robin Williams is the person to talk to. I've read that when Christopher Reeves was totally paralyzed in an accident he wanted to die. His friend Robin Williams was able to convince him to keep going.
Yeah I'd probably do the samething
@@krisaaron8180 it's such a shame nobody could convince him to stay too but he was aware of what was happening to him so he knew he didn't have that long left in control of both his mind and his body so I totally understand.
This is a film everyone needs to see at least once.
Not just because of the important story and so that we don’t forget what happened, but the acting, the cinematography, the score, all of it is a masterpiece.
It's a masterclass of movie making at every Level. It's up there with the best even apart from the horrific events involved. And then, then the subject of the film itself.
Liam Neeson should have won an Oscar for playing Oskar.
One of the best thing about this movie, is that Spielberg didn’t accepted any money for it. He donated everything to the survivers of the Holocaust ☝️
And like every movie I’ve seen of the Holocaust, I cried… (The boy in the striped pyjamas, life is beautiful and so on 😢)
Yup, he considered the profits "blood money".
Yes and he also funds BLM and ANTIFA terrorists that burned down one of my businesses in the Fairfax district of Los Angeles.
Boy in the Striped Pajamas is a must watch movie. Also The Pianist. Both outstanding Holocaust movies.
@@jcarlovitch Aw that sucks for you. Thankfully nothing of value was lost.
@@artistfloor9 Even though nobody might have died in that particular fire, arson is nothing to sneeze at. Had anybody been trapped in the building, they would've burned to death. When crowds of people decide to light stuff they don't own on fire, that is violence. A fire lit on one building can spread to another and another, and the inferno can get out of control faster than one might think.
I think what the movie shows and what the ultimate lesson of Schindler's story is that Schindler wasn't a perfect man, he wasn't a paragon; he had his sins, however when ultimate evil was going on before his eyes he could not sit back and do nothing. In harsh times you don't have to be the perfect hero sometimes you have to do all that you can. Oscar Schindler didn't save everyone from the horrors of war, but he saved many. He saved enough to ensure that generations could go on to thrive. And, that is an ultimate good.
A perfect hero might not have had Schindler's business savvy or resources. He had a worldly confidence that made powerful people respect him.
Don’t worry bro I cried at the end too it’s such a powerful movie.
You have to be broken in the head to not cry while watching this movie.
If you don't so much as shed a tear while watching this movie..... You do not have a soul! I cried a lot watching this movie, but when the actual people and the actors who played them placed the stones on his grave, I totally lost it!
Everyone does!
You cry for almost every movie though. lol
I cry every single time I watch it.
one of Spielberg's best movies. Liam Neeson is an excellent and underrated actor
Don't forget Ralph Fiennes - this was a distrubingly great portratyal of a real villain. "When Płaszów survivor Mila Pfefferberg was introduced to Fiennes on the set of the film, she began to shake uncontrollably, as Fiennes, costumed in full SS dress uniform, reminded her of the real Amon Göth."
Nothing more attractive then a man who’s not afraid to cry. Also watched this in history class I believe at the end my history teacher said that at the end it was the real person with the actor who played them in the movie

Fun Fact: a Jewish man who lived through the Holocaust and watched Shindlers List was asked what he thought of the film and the man replied " it was not brutal enough".
Let that sink in as you are watching this film.
...
Not....brutal enough.
This movie is a constant reminder as to why it is important to keep an eye on your government. Any government can devolve into this if the populace allows it to- even America.
The government and the people who automatically believe whatever the government says. There is a lot of dehumanization going on right now, in multiple countries and all over the internet. But somehow people think they could never be led into thinking a group of people are dangerous and need to be taken care of. I have seen many people speak of putting others into "camps" and you're not allowed to point out the parallels, because they don't think they could become like this, they just think it's for their own good.
@@LadyBeyondTheWall And we now have large corporations like Nike, Apple and Disney willingly working with the Chinese government which currently has concentration camps for dissenters and the Uyghurs of Xinjiang. Disney even listed the heads of the camps in their "Special Thanks" section of the credits for live-action Mulan.
It's sickening.
Thankfully we avoided this on Jan. 6th.
@@tulinfirenze1990 Ohhhhh you did NOT just compare J6 to the freaking HOLOCAUST!?
@@tulinfirenze1990 These are two very different things, the Holocaust and January sixth. If you cannot spot the difference between them, we are truly doomed.
Many of the key players in the making of this movie felt unworthy in the face of what these people experienced. The man standing off to the side near Schindler's grave is Liam Neeson, who felt unworthy to approach the grave himself. Steven Spielberg took no money for directing this movie. And when Spielberg approached composer John Williams, he told Spielberg that he was unworthy of composing for this film, to which Spielberg replied, "No, but those who are worthy are dead."
Spielberg said there were much worse things that Amon Göth did like feeding the people to his dogs and his dogs were trained to kill those people and such. But Steven said people just wouldn't believe it if they'd see it on screen. So this is all true, he did hunt people on his balcony. Besides...life writes the best horror stories...
I've read interviews with some of the women who were Goeth's maids. Yes, there was more then one and the movie combined them, however two girls both had the name Helen so he just told one of the girls he'd call her a different name instead. The abuse was bad. These women were thrown down the stairs a lot.
Amon Goth's grandaughter interview is something you should see
I know, why make horror movies when we have Holocaust horror stories from which to actually learn something about humanity.
The cousin of my wife's grandfather was the actual jewler who made the ring that was given to Schindler. Also Goethe believe it or not was actually much worse than portrayed. In fact his daughter found out about her father by watching the film.
A hounting story she told was (meaning not word by word) "When the trailer was shown (it wasnt said who Ralph Finnes charcter was) I knew that was my father. The look and what my mother had told me about him, I knew, that was him"
His name was Amon Leopold Göth.
he was so bad that the nazis kicked him out of the party. imagine how bad someone had to be that not even the nazis wanted anything to do with them
Oh shit-
Poor kid.
The real Schindler said in a 1983 television documentary, "I felt that the Jews were being destroyed. I had to help them; there was no choice."
An utterly brilliant film. And when Schindler failed in businesses after the war, he was actually supported financially for quite a long period of time by the people he saved.
Oh I didn't know this! I always wondered how he was supported since those businesses failed
@@CharlotteDarling777 Yeah he spent hundreds of millions buying the people on the list, the allies gave him 1.5k after the war barely over a dollar for each person saved.
I lost family at Auschwitz and this movie crushes me every time. I’m so glad you took the time to watch this because our memories will help ensure this never happens again. Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat it. Respect
Having visited Krakow, and seen how tiny the ghetto was, seeing Schindler's real factory, as well as the sets built for the film (in an old quarry), this film reduces me to tears every time I see it.
And don't even ask me about Auschwitz or Birjkenau. Words cannot express the feelings.
I too have been to Auschwitz and Birkenau. The feelings I still have from those tours. I actually had nightmares after being there.
I had a roommate in college that was German/Polish, parents were immigrants, and his parents took him to Auschwitz when he was 2-3. He said from the minute they set foot there, to the minute they left, he was crying the whole time. That was also one of the earliest memories he had.
I'm not sure I could handle going there.
I don't know why reactors apologize for crying. We movie to feel the feels. The crying shows you aren't dead or horrible.
Some part of me loves that so many people can feel as heartbroken over the ending as I do. It bonds us as people. No judgment.
Its Not only a movie to make you cry fml, this is real, its happend, are you all braindead
@@peteblabla9684
_Its Not only a movie to make you cry fml, this is real, its happend, are you all braindead_
Yes and no. "Schindler's List" is based upon a novel called _"Schindler's Ark"_ ("Schindler's List" in the U.S.) written by _Thomas Keneally_ that is classified as a historical fiction. Many of the people and events that appear in the book and the movie are based upon real people and events but aren't necessarily accurately portrayed.
@@peteblabla9684 well said Peter. X
The scene of Oscar in the end falling down in tears hugging Stern always gets me into tears... such a human reaction Tim!
Amon Goeth in this movie is reportedly tamer than the real one b/c the latter was so monstrous that he came off as almost unbelievable. The recent trend in writing villains is to make their motivations understandable. You'll hear lots of film enthusiasts preach that making a one-dimensional antagonist who's just evil for the sake of evil and only cares for money is the wrong way to go. It's almost as if this film is trying to give Amon a character arc regarding power & attraction, as well as attempting to provide answers as to why he is the way he is. Only for him to reject that exploration and immediately go back to the pleasure of violence. A reminder that monsters do exist in real life no matter if they're human.
Very good explanation 👍
" He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man. It is more from carelessness
about truth than from intentional lying, that there is so much falsehood in the world."
- Samuel Johnson
You can find the real execution of the real Amon Goeth on UA-cam. It was botched several times before they got it right.
@@lindanicholson950
_Amon Goeth in this movie is reportedly tamer than the real one b/c the latter was so monstrous that he came off as almost unbelievable._
1) His name was Amon Leopold Göth...why people keep spelling it Goeth or Goethe is unknown. 2) The movie _"Schindler's List"_ is based upon a novel written by Thomas Keneally entitled _"Schindler's Ark"_ that is classified as a historical fiction. The way Göth is portrayed in the novel is also reflected in the movie.
@@iammanofnature7227 "oe" is a common and universally understood comvention to substite "ö" in Germany and when transcribing German. Goeth is the correct way to write Göth when ö is not availlable. Goth isnt.
The scene where the women poked their fingertips with a needle and put blood on their cheeks was to make their cheeks seem more blush which made them look younger and healthier so that they don’t seem too sick or unhealthy. (At least this was what my teacher told me)
I saw this twice at the theater, both times with a packed audience. Imagine a whole theater full of people experiencing this movie together.
You weren't making out though...right? But really that would have been absolutely a moment to take root in your memories.
I’m sure it was for the 25th anniversary reissue in 2018, as I supposedly expected the theaters to be like that at that point...more specifically with teens.
@@EmoDragracer Haha. Hopefully people get your reference and don't just immediately get offended. That was a good episode!
@@LadyBeyondTheWall Oh geez yes, you're right. This movie is important folks and it was just a comment for "Seinfeld" this movie breaks me down every time.
when we went to see it in the cinema for its 25 anniversary, it was 1 of the most memorable theater experiences i have ever had.
An entire cinema hall full, dead silence for the full 3 hours, nobody dared to even stand up from their seat until the credits had fully rolled.
When Spielberg presented this movie to John Williams for him to compose for it, Williams was so moved, he stepped out for a few minutes. When he returned, he said that Spielberg needed a better composer.
Spielberg responded, “I know, but they’re all dead.”
"How could anyone do this to another human being?"
Easy. Most people would, given the right conditions. If you’re taught to hate someone else with what could appear as even a slightly good reason, even as a well-told lie, that’s a start. Compound that with telling people that they’re victims and have been oppressed, and taking revenge is righteous, etc. It’s not hard to create extremists who will kill their opposition, even torture their opposition, if they feel like they are in the right. The people you should be most concerned about are those who claims to be unable to do such evils, and also those who believes themselves to be the most righteous of their cause. Even in modern western politics people are actively dehumanizing eachother, and we’re only a few steps away from recreating the horrors of not even 100 years ago very soon. And it will come from people who say "I was just following orders", and those who refused to act. Evil prevails when people stand by and do nothing. There’s several nations *right now* talking about building camps to keep people in against their will. "It’s not the same!", people will say. I’m sure they said that in the 1920s and 30s too. Give it time and we’ll have another hell on earth, and at a much larger scale than ever before.
They always say "It's not the same" and "You're not allowed to compare anything to the Holocaust" or "You're *trying* to be a victim" - These people do not think they can become like this, but they're human and propaganda is easily fell for.
I already see people calling others things like "plague rats" and so much dehumanization. People don't think anything similar to this can happen again, but they're wrong. I may even have someone reply to my comment wondering who I am talking about because if they don't like who I'm talking about they can get offended that there's any sort of comparison regardless of historical parallels.
I believe you are completely right. People are forgetting history. WWII history and the Holocaust are being forgotten, erased, if not outright changed. I really do believe we are headed in that direction. People think it can't happen in Western society, yet they forget that Germany was THE most advanced and progressive nation in the world before they fell under Nazism. What scares me the most is that no one will be spared. They WILL find a reason to keep you locked up, even if you do follow the rules. It's scary and horrifying how people can be divided into "us vs them" and how they can be brainwashed into seeing the other party as subhuman. They did it in WWII. They can, and are, doing it right now.
@@LadyBeyondTheWall I completely agree. They say those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it and it's happening right now before our very eyes. WWII and the Holocaust have been erased, forgotten and rewritten over the past decades and Western education is failing its people. I think people get upset over comparing what's going on now to what happened then, not because it's "offensive" or "insensitive" but because deep down inside they know it's the truth. I shouldn't have to tell people that some of my own family died in those camps to justify such a statement.
@LethalOwl Well said. You're exactly right. I don't fear any one person, but I do fear that outcome. These things happened because it is in human nature to do so. If it wasn't, it wouldn't have happened. It's when society gets comfortable and forgets about history that they repeat it. Most of us take what we have for granted, so much so, that we don't think it needs to be protected.
Simple - you dehumanize them. I remember a Vietnam veteran on Ken Burns documentary saying something "I'll kill as many gooks, dinks" and w/e derogative Asian terms "but I won't kill anybody". Goeth is doing the same, note how he calls Helen a "rat" and "not a person".
This was filmed in the early '90s, and there were 6,000 descendents _then._ Based on a quick Google search I just did, there are roughly _8,500+_ now.
It's hard to make out, but the one who places the rose on Schindler's grave at the end is Liam Neeson.
Hollywood fantasy.
@@tanelviil9149 Oh cool, lookit, a Holocaust denier. 🙄
@@kriscynical Tanel is right in some ways.
It is a movie and Spielberg need to make it look worse in a short Time.
All in the movie is happened, but not all of it at one or two places and not in this short time. In Reality it happened all over the country and over years.
Schindler has not done all what is shown, something whas done by other Heroes and for the Movie it was written to fit in this movie
@@kriscynical And an earth flatter. :))
First of all, things were much worse than shown in the movie. The Göth in the movie was mild compared to the real one. Schindler on the other hand did much more than what was shown in the movie. In fact while there are inaccuracies, nothing that's shown is exaggerated. Schindler spent all the money he had and risked his life many times. He also traveled abroad secretly to meet Jewish organizations to inform them about the Holocaust.
Emilie Schindler (the old lady in the wheelchair) was his wife. She actually did so much more than the movie shows, she would go to get food and stuff for them every day.
Some think she was Oskar's role model.
Its very interesting, the way the movie is shot with Oscar typically standing powerfully over the people he shares the scene with. It reflects the power and influence he has over people, and ultimately the power he uses to help others. But you see the contrast in the ending scene when he falls down to his knees, the symbolism there is great. The once proud and powerful, brought low by the tragedy and the humanity he has witnessed. Such a great and masterfully shot and acted film.
A lot of other reactors to this film skip the conversation between Schindler and Goeth about Helen. I'm glad you kept it, to me it was a big moment showing how deranged Goeth was. He killed all those people like they were nothing and then he tried to justify killing her like it was merciful.
I watched this movie for my history and English class because we were learning about WW2. We had to get permission slips signed by parents in order to watch the movie by in class and it was always emotionally heavy once class was over. We then had a field trip to the Museum of Tolerance in L.A.(I live in San Diego). You’re given a card of a child and throughout the tour you found information about the child and at the end you find out if the child on your card survived or not. Mine didn’t. She was 3 or 4 years old and she died in the gas chambers.
Speaking of getting permission slips signed, it seemed like perfect timing for its 25th anniversary reissue in 2018 to be right around the time it was exactly twice as long since a certain milestone in the film industry came into the scene that I surprisingly realized was essential in order to make that type of experience a reality thanks to a certain history lesson I was lucky enough to learn during my college education that easily left me flabbergasted, meaning that 2018 also marked the 50th anniversary of the MPAA ratings system.
There’s a list of movies that are titled “Once seen, Never Forgotten.” This is high on that list.
There are some movies where I joke that "only monsters don't cry at X part..." but with this one, I'm really not joking. You must ACTUALLY be a monster to watch this movie and not be affected.
don't worry, I was crying along with you Tim.
just a little bit of context for the scene with the worker who was Amon was going to shoot for not making enough hinges but the gun kept jamming: he was a rabbi ❤️
Schindlers turning point was the first scene from the little girl in red. She walked through the streets during the massacre. He and his wife saw for the first time what was really going on.
I noticed you kept wondering if Schindler was a good guy or bad guy. It's not that simple in real life. He started out not really caring about other people, then gradually discovered new depths to his humanity. You were wondering when and how Schindler would betray the Nazis. It's not that simple in real life. Sometimes all you can do is endure and outlast the evil, instead of "defeating" it.
Every reactor ever: "I don't want to cry / I'm sorry for crying / I almost cried but held it in."
Every person who watches reactions: "I hope they cry."
GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT!
I think this movie shocks most Americans so much because the darker side of the Germans war on the Jews is no longer taught in highschool. I remember watching the stock footage of the different camps from the liberating forces, watching that as a teenager shows how much evil can be done through ignorance and blind hate
I am old, and grew up knowing people from that time. My dance teacher was a survivor of the Warsaw ghetto, her husband was a polish officer went into hiding and was a partisan he smuggled her out of the ghetto 3 months before it as liquidated. She lost her whole family, father mother two sisters and a brother he lost just as much. They both ended up captured in 1944 and had only been in the camps a month when the soviets liberated them. The people who lived next door to them were a lovely German couple, who were their age, the wife played the piano for our dance practices. As I grew up I mustered the courage one day to ask how they were friends, when Mr. Scharnhos (sp) was a german officer in the war. The two couples smiled and then gave me the best advice I have ever heard. "Hate eats you, fight it and fight the anger it brings". It was later I learned that Mr Sharnhos (sp) spent 1943-1945 in prison for refusing to shoot unarmed Ukrainian jews and for ordering his men to release them. His scars were not from the fighting they were from the torture he endured as a prisoner.
In 1989 I was trained as a war crimes investigator and sent to Bosnia. I saw the camps and mass graves in Poland and Germany as part of my training, then went and saw new mass graves. Humans are evil and cruel, and vicious, yet there is also good. We must encourage the good, we must fight the hate, we must fight the anger or we become the monsters we fear.
My great great uncle Fred was 1 of the first soldier,s into these camps, 🇬🇧 He came home broken from the things he saw. It left him with chronic insomnia and PTSD, He didn’t live long after.
@@helengunter378my grandfather was at the liberation of Dachau and talked about how awful it was.
Post watching comment: Good reaction. It is normal not to talk too much when reacting to such a deep and hard movie to watch. It’s 100% ok to be vulnerable, my eye were getting teared up at the end, just like you. I’d be more scared if I didn’t see you cry tbh. Embrace your emotions and I love these reactions bc we see another side of you. You’re a fun guy, but everyone should be allowed to cry when they see emotional stuff. ThNk you and can’t wait for the next reaction!
Don't worry man, everyone cries watching this movie. If you are a human with a pulse, Schindler's List is gonna make you cry.
As a german this movie hurts a lot more^^ It`s awful how humans can be^^
The met with some of the people who'd been in that camp. And when one woman say Ralph Fiennes in his Amon Goth uniform she started shaking out of fear of the sight of him.
'I could have got more....' never fails to break me down, even close to thirty years later.
My wife and saw this at the theatre when it came out. It was sold out. when it finally ended and the lights came up no one and I mean not 1 person even moved. We all just sat and stared ahead. women were sniffling a few men cleared their throats. It took about 2 minutes which seemed like day, A very old man stood up and shouted very loudly. WE CAN NEVER LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN. Several women broke down and were openly bawling. Everyone started to get up to leave most men were holding their wives up as they stumbled. Some men were crying. My wife finally stopped and leaned against an empty seat. She looked at me and said how could something like this really happen , Tell me it didnt. Her makeup was running down her face. I could barely get the words out. I said I wish i could. She broke down and i had to help her to the car. We were both traumatized for a few days. To this day I have never watched it again completely. My wife will not even come near the comp if Im watching reactions. Now you must watch COME AND SEE It is a Russian film and captioned. It shook me up too its on you tube. Good luck with it
The movie won 7 Oscars, including Best Movie. The producer, Branko Lustig, was a holocaust surviver himself. You can find his speech at the Oscars here on youtube. I break down every time I hear it.
Here's the link. ua-cam.com/video/1HKTYYX50hQ/v-deo.html
Amon Göth has a granddaughter who is of Nigerian descent. Her name is Jennifer Teege. She published a book called "My Grandfather Would Have Shot Me: A Black Woman Discovers Her Family's Nazi Past".
I cannot speak on history books of today but in '93 when I was in 6th grade the Shoah had 3 pages. This movie shown a light that I followed to learn more of my people.
Believe it or not, Amon Goeth was so psychotic that even the SS decided they couldn't put up with him and kicked him out! The movie doesn't even come close to how messed up and depraved this psychopath was!
To cry is to be human.
Depression. Guilt. Suffering. Even if those horrors haven't done to us presently we still have to learn what is past so we could act immediately.
Tough watch, but an important film to make sure we don’t forget.
Schindler's Ark (Schindlers List) is a Booker Prize-winning fictional novel published in 1982 by Australian novelist Thomas Keneally.
Listed as : Fictional Novel.
I never saw Schindler as a bad guy when I first saw this movie, I could see that underneath his need to gain wealth there was humanity in him. Great reaction.
*Let me know your thoughts on this film!?!*
There are no words to describe this film
hey tim👋 its "I could have" instead of "i could of". its a very common mistake.
It is a Amazing and a great film from the great director steven Spielberg🎬🎥❤👍
It's an absolute classic that every single person should see at least once. It's also one of the hardest movies to watch for me, and the music is an absolute masterpiece. And I cry every single time I watch it, so don't feel ashamed about that.
By the way, if you haven't seen it, I strongly recommend watching the miniseries Band of Brothers, a Spielberg/Tom Hanks masterpiece
I didn't see this movie until I was older. I didn't need to. Growing up Jewish, I had the atrocities of this time period drilled into my head from a very young age. But as I got older, I decided to look more into how it even got to that point in the first place, so I could see the signs and hopefully help prevent it from happening again and stop fadcist ideologies from spreading. In that respect, the last several years have been stressful to say the least.
Indeed - to actually see it rising again in the US and for pretty much half the country to not only not be aware of it but to be actively ENDORSING IT has been terrifying!
This movie I was too shocked to react through it all...until that scene with him saying he could have done more. Then ALL the emotions just overflowed and I couldn't contain myself for several minutes. This movie broke me too.
This movie is based on a book, Schindler's Ark, and that book is based on real-life events and real-life people.
And it is an excellent read.
Schindler's Ark (Schindlers List) is a Booker Prize-winning fictional novel published in 1982 by Australian novelist Thomas Keneally.
Listed as : Fictional Novel.
A Book which won all the possible prizes for "Fiction". Keneally said himself he made up most of it, he let himself be inspired by NewsPaper Articles and Hollywood. He explicity mentioned that he "imagined" most of it. Of cours, it wouldnt have won all the Ficion-Novel prices ;-)
So, "based on real life events" doesnt mean "Historic Accurate".
The 90s was the true golden age of cinema. The insane amount of top 10 movies of all time that are from this decade is just astounding.
Salut Timothee. I remember seeing this movie in High School in Laval and it took me years to rewatch it because 16 year old me was shocked. But the movie is a masterpiece and it might be hard to watch but it’s important to not forget the past so that we don’t repeat it. I am commenting before watching the whole video because I wanna appreciate the whole reaction without thinking about what to comment later. I might add comments after watching it all. :)
a piece of horrific history that must never be forgotten
The girl was in red, so that she stood out on purpose, and it was impacting when he sees her body later on.
Was shown to us (along with Saving Private Ryan) in high school for history. I firmly believe it is critical for us to show future generations - without pulling any punches - just how horrific unchecked hate and indifference can impact the world. Such a powerful movie, and being a photographer, I have to say the cinematography is an absolute masterclass as well. Stay kind. ❤
Thanks, Timothee! ✡️ This is one of the all-time greats. I'm so glad it impacted you (it shook me to my core, as most well-told stories do). The more we remember these events, the less likely they are to repeat. Compassion is our only way forward as a species.
My uncle was taken his daughter and myself to the newly opened Holocaust Museum in DC while I was up visiting their family early 1994. He wanted us to see this movie before we went. So hard to watch but made the museum so much more impactful.
Another movie that hit hard is 'Born On the Forth Of July'...saw that as a teen with a Veteran parent.
I've been to that museum twice. The way is see it, the Holocaust is an example of what happens when absolute evil is allowed to flourish. My best friends grandfather was in one of those awful camps and he had to escape it by cutting through the barbed wire fence. I also have another friend who's father was in a camp and survived long enough to be rescued when the war was over. I can't imagine the horror of the people that lived and millions sadly died in those awful camps.
One of the scenes that kills me the most is when Danka (with the glasses) and her mom try to stay together and hide. Danka goes under amd that damn lady days Danka's mom can't fit. When Danka yells for her mom as the trap door shuts.... heartbreaking. So, so happy they reunite though!
When you cry, I cry just like that.
There's a phrase written in Auschwitz:
"Those who do not know their history, are doomed to repeat it."
Your reaction was absolutely perfect.
It makes me feel proud of you the fact you dare to make a reaction about this movie. Not easy to watch. I've watched twice and there is not way I can avoid to cry hard. I actually was crying watching this.
i just really appreciate it when male reactors turn o softboi mode
nice vid Tim, we all cried too
Goeths real life granddaughter is biracial and has written a book about him, saying he would have had her shot.
Interesting. I saw a documentary with his daughter meeting with one of the women who survived being his maid.
@@rachzen Aemon Goeths daughter met Helen Hirsch in the documentary
I saw it in the theatre. Not a dry eye in there and I could hear sniffling. That last scene with Schindler & Stern is heartbreaking. Thank you for reacting to this important movie in history.
This is a brutal one...man's inhumanity to man on full display. I'll tell you about when I saw Life Is Beautiful in a packed movie theater; you could hear every last person sobbing by the end.
It's a movie I watch at least once a year. It's so good and it's a great reminder to be more sympathetic to others.
Yes all that actually happened even the sniper scene and yes that was the actual grave of Oscar may he rest in peace and yes those where the actual Jews of Schindler and their descendants and actors.
The the people he saved where honouring him as they honour their own. Jewish tradition is to place a rock on the gravestone of loved ones as a sign that the grave is taken care of.
we watched it in our history lessons (yes, i am a german and we werent ready for this) and this movie is so powerful. Everybody cried there :/
The camp was built over a Jewish cemetery. The stones used to pave the road were the headstones.
Ending part was the actual person and the actors who played their character
Dude, my friend; it’s okay to cry. So this whole “I mustn’t cry so as to not appear stupid” is absurd. I cry sometimes, it’s all good.
One of the greatest films ever made a true masterpiece Schindler's List produced and directed by Steven Spielberg starring Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley, Ralph Fiennes and music score by John Williams. This film was nominated for 12 Oscars and won 7 including best picture, best director by Steven Spielberg, best adapted screenplay and best original score by John Williams. Thanks so much TimotheeReacts for reacting this classic just excellent😊👍👍👍
The one more person scene gets me all the time.... That's great film work right there
the lady who got sniped for "tying her shoe" was probably on a work detail planting land mines in that clear area. she just finished her dangerous work and the explosion behind her was probably the bullet passing through her and hitting a mine. imo. else what could it be? also the pettiness with "Danka's mom, Mrs dresner" and the lady with the hiding spot was foreshadowed when Dresner said "i won't hide like a rat!" while the other lady was saying "there are a lot of places to hide"
Watched this film for the first time in grade 8 over three days in class. Haven’t been the same since, one of the all time great films. Lovely reaction Timothée
First time watching this I was on staying over at my aunts' place. We watch this movie and all of us were crying all through out the movie. Even when the credits were rolling we were still crying. Now watching you reacting it making me cry again.
Thank you for reacting to this movie! It is so important to remember those horrible times and make sure that they would not come back again!! We are all human beings and what happened in the Second World War was beyond cruel...
Welp. Cody has Saving Private Ryan tomorrow. So, yeah...
The little girl in the red coat, now all grown up, has been in Poland helping ukrainians. 💙
When the real Helen Hirsch met the actor of Amon Goetz at the academy award she broke down in tears. He reminded her so much of the real Goetz.
"How could anyone do this to another human being?"
Some answered that question here very good, so I would like to add something else to this:
In 2008, a german Movie was released, called "Die Welle" (The Wave).
This film is about a teacher who deals with the subject of National Socialism and the Second World War with his students. The students claim that in our modern and enlightened society something like this could never happen again. The teacher then decides to start an experiment.
Everyone has to dress the same, have to adhere to the same rules (whoever is asked something has to stand while speaking and should give short and concise answers, for example), the seating arrangement is changed and people should walk in lockstep.
At the beginning everything goes well, the students seem more motivated by the newly introduced discipline, they write better grades, they perform better in sport. The word gets around in the school and more and more students are taking part. At some point there will be a vote on what this movement should be called. It is voted democratically and the movement is henceforth called "The Wave".
As can be expected, the students who belong to the "wave" start to insult other students if they do not want to join or are even against it.
All this is reflected so high that at some point the teacher realizes that his experiment went terribly wrong and he wants to end it. This leads to the fact that the students do not want to give up their beloved "wave", protest against it and insult their teacher as "traitor". One student (who was previously an absolute outsider) goes crazy in particular. This student has appointed himself the top bodyguard of the teacher (the teacher was not enthusiastic about it at first, but let it go because he knows the family background of the student). He draws a pistol, shoots a student and threatens the teacher with the pistol. When the teacher has almost managed to get the student to put down the gun, the latter reveals that the wave is his purpose in life and then the student shoots himself.
The teacher is then taken away by the police.
Also very good / scary is "the Stanford prison experiment" A Psychotherapist (Professor Philipp Zimbardo) in the 1970s wanted to proof his theory of people behaving in certin ways if you devide them into a group with power and a group of "inmates". So he took his psychology students, went to an empty building somewhere on the University-grounds and said we will stay the week here. half of you will be prisonguards and the other half will be inmates and this building will be our "prison" after 2 days!! the inmates were humiliated and beaten and everyone inside the building was believing the prison story, including the Professor! After 6 days, his fellow professors noticed something was wrong. When asked to stop, he screamed "NOT NOW IM RUNNING A PRISON!" His fellow professors where in shock, how quickly all went wrong. After stopping the experiment, on day 7, It became a horrible example of "How power and circumstances WILL trick the mind"
@@thomasnieswandt8805 Heard about that. It's just insane. I think "Die Welle" is kind of based on the Stanford Prison experiment as well. It's just scary if you think of it.
I just remembered that there is a german movie which is called "Das Experiment" and it is actually about that.
I did a report on O.Schindler in my Graduate Criminal Psychology block. My end results was that its was very cross of unfortunate events for a business man to get personal with his employees during wartime. There is very little to unpack in his decisions as it was always "THE RIGHT THING TO DO", but with his business credibility behind it. This paper i did actually made me happy and excited examining a "criminal mind", but in all honesty he should not be charged under the Geneva Conventions.
Would you be so kind to point out where we can find your paper?
Some scenes were not shot at all. Goeths crimes were so cruel, sadistic and inhumane that the producers thought the viewers might perceive them as constructed only for the film, thus damaging the whole work. I am German and the so-called "German culture of remembrance" is a matter of course in our country. Every day, for example, there are documentaries on at least two channels which show among other things the background of how Hitler was able to lever out parliament to come to power, the crimes of the GESTAPO (Secret state police) in their torture cellars, the deportation of the Jews, underlaid with original images from the concentration camps, the cruelest war crimes of the SS, which followed the Wehrmacht on the campaign and then brought unimaginable suffering to the rest of the population, which was also filmed at the time. (Some already in color, which makes the whole thing seem even more bizarre). Trenches, on the edges of which Jews were killed by the hundreds with shots to the neck, etc., etc., etc. In the German extermination camps, the women and children were gassed first, so that no more Jews could be born and grow up. Very few Germans wanted to have known about the concentration camps, which of course was complete nonsense. For example, thousands of apartments were suddenly vacant because the Jewish residents had been deported during the night. The very next day, "Aryan" Germans, mostly belonging to the party cadre, moved in. Then hundreds of civilian German guards were employed in the death camps, who were even proud of their "work" and bragged about it to their acquaintances and friends. I could give many more examples, which prove that it was total bullshit, when it was claimed not to have seen anything and not to know what was happening there. There are also "Stepstones". Small memorial plaques laid in the ground, so-called Stolpersteine, are intended to commemorate the fate of people who were persecuted, murdered, deported, expelled or driven to suicide during the National Socialist era. The square brass plaques with rounded corners and edges are inscribed with letters hammered in by hand using a hammer and hammer letters, showing e.g. who was deported in that house. They are usually set into the sidewalk or surface of the respective sidewalk at the same level in front of the last freely chosen homes of Nazi victims. On December 29, 2019 the 75,000th Stepstone was laid in Memmingen. In any case, I am a little proud of the fact that in Germany, even more than 75 years after the war, these unimaginable crimes against humanity have been and are being dealt with.
When in middle school in the 1970s I was show raw film footage of the liberated concentration camps. It was harrowing how abused these individuals were. They were so horrifically starved that I don't know how they had the strength to stand.
Fake heros:"I've done enough."
Real heros:"I could have done more."
Peace ✌🏻
At the end of the film, Mrs. Emilie Schindler, obviously very advanced in years and in a wheelchair places a stone on her husband's grave, and this guy says, "is that his wife or daughter ?" Mrs. Schindler was eighty six years old when she visited the grave that day, accompanied by Caroline Goodall, the actress who portrayed her in the film.
I love it when at the beginning of the movie, reactors talk sh*t about Oscar Schindler thinking they have him figured out as the bad guy. 😅🤣
A movie, nor the events that transpired shall not ever be forgotten, it will not only have its place in movie history, but shall live in the hearts and minds of people forever!
This movie should be mandatory watch in ALL high schools. There are young people today who don’t know what the Holocaust was or worse, they don’t believe it happened. They should all watch this so they see what humans are capable of doing to each other. What is still happening in some countries. We can’t forget.
Yes! This is why I’m glad the theaters for its 25th anniversary reissue in 2018 truly deserve to be sardine tins of teens!
19:46 i think they just curious. curious about how many people one bullet can shoot through. this screen show that these soldier didn't see these people as "human" anymore just something less.
The city of Krakow turned Schindler's factory into a museum of Jewish history.
He was a self-absorbed man in the beginning but as time went on, he started to feel more and more compassion for the Jews, although he couldn't show it to the Germans without endangering himself and, ultimately, what he was doing. I think the point where he recognized the girl in the red coat had been killed was where he was changed and where he became actively trying to save his workers' lives. I don't think Oskar ever thought of them as being less than humans, but as he saw the atrocities and deaths of the Jews, he became compassionate, and the movie shows him as even a bit desperate to save those he could - especially the children. He changed over the course of the film. I'm not sure how closely this reflects the true man. Hollywood productions you need to take with a grain of salt, but it is close enough. He saved a little more than 1,100 people from the death camps.
A few things: the little girl in the red coat actually survived. She wrote a book about it later in life.
The camps were built for the movie using the original plans for those concentration camps.
Amon Goth was actually arrested by the German Army for embezzlement before being executed. His daughter was too young to remember him personally but recognized him in the movie by pictures she still had of him. Her mother, who was a real piece of work, used to tell her daughter as a teen, "You're just like your father" whenever she got angry with her. I can only imagine how her daughter felt when she saw what her father was actually like. She ended up having a baby girl with a Nigerian man and gave her up for adoption. The girl grew up and wrote a book about how her grandfather would have shot her if he knew her, because she was black.
Spielberg made this film the same year as he made Jurassic Park.
Spielberg decided to finish his degree in filmmaking and submitted this film as his final grade. Think he passed? 😉
