I think the piece the soldier is playing reflects the systematic approach the Germans took to such a horrible endeavor. Also, he plays it well - he’s clearly musically trained, probably well educated, but still part of a genocide. It shows that it wasn’t just mindless barbarians who did this, but extremely well-educated, polished people who took their time and energy to execute their plans.
This scene has such an incredible sense of scope; going from a single man being found under a bed and shot, to a street littered with the dead, to an overhead of the entire town ringing with gunfire.
Yet still the effort to rob valuables from the same dead. Murders and yet thieves as well. It wasn't just genocide, it was profiteering as an integral part. The killing was like humans were not there. The difference with pows, was kill them and the enemy will kill yours. Nobody was killing German civilians for this slaughter, so no retribution (until they ran west when the Russians arrived in anger)
To me it's symbolic how the soldier plays so beautifully in the midst of mass murder. It goes to show the people committing this genocide were often educated and well spoken.
@@jannguerrero Just like the "tax the unvaxxed" crowd. Capable of going down the same slippery slope of human rights violations because they can dehumanize others.
This scene is quite powerful. The way in which the soldiers treat their job as so banal that one of them plays the piano in the background makes it even more horrifying.
I think it's also a juxtaposition (two contrasting things put together). It's putting the beautiful piano music right next to the killing as a way to show how even if the Nazis know how to play beautiful music they don't care about killing innocent people.
The other thing to realize is the SS Officer is probably playing to drown out the cries and screaming of people being shot and killed. Call it a coping mechanism if you will.
Something I never realized about this scene until recently. During the Liquidation of the Ghetto, Danka and her mother wanted to hide in that crawl space at 0:47 with the others but they told the mother she couldnt come but took Danka. Then Danka left to go be with her mother. Smartest decision she ever made.
Very symbolic scene. The german people of poets and thinkers became murderers. Or in my native language: "Das Volk der Dichter und Denker wurde zum Volk der Richter und Henker."
gee, I guess that makes sticking Jews into trains going "east" against their will okay; whew! that's a load off my mind; by the way, this did happen; next time, try denying genocide committed by less meticulous record keepers than the Nazis--
lmaaaao yeah sticking unarmed people in trains is so justified. it can't even be justified like with the Japanese, who had a military when they were put in internment camps.
I always thought the endless machine gunning of the guy under the bed was unnecessary and far fetched until I realized that Spielberg is making the point that they are simply enjoying themselves.
I don't know why but it's scary yet charming to see the two germans calmly walk into the room casually wondering what music he's playing despite the chaos in the background lol. God this movie is a masterpiece.
I think it has a lot to do with the music. It's not some folk tunes, It's methodically structured baroque music paid by aristocrats for the church, one considered noble and rational.
I would hate it if I'm trying to play the piano and as if the gunfire everywhere isn't distracting enough some buffoons who can't even tell the difference between Bach and Mozart come in and start talking in the middle of the performance.
When I first saw this movie at 1:30 I thought the piano sounds were the guy who just climbed out of it being shot and falling onto the keys, in a surprisingly melodic way
This scene reminds me of that George Steiner quote: "We know that a man can read Goethe or Rilke in the evening, that he can play Bach and Schubert, and go to his day's work at Auschwitz in the morning." And Anthony Burgess of 'A Clockwork Orange' wrote in an essay entitled "Human Perfectibility, Dystopias, and Violence: "A commandant who had supervised the killing of a thousand Jews went home to hear his daughter play a Schubert sonata and cried with holy joy. How is that possible?" I leave it to you. Perhaps a clue could be found in a reading of Pelagius or Saint Augustine. I happen to agree with Malcolm Muggeridge: "The depravity of man is at once the most empirically verifiable reality but at the same time the most intellectually resisted fact.”
The awnser is easy. The idealogical driven soldiers didnt view the jews as humans, but as devil worshipping subhumans. Once you convinced yourself that your enemy is not human or an enemy of humanity its pretty easy to murder and abuse them without mercy or feelings of regret.
@@ToDDHeaDD It’s symbolic. The assortment of states that would eventually become Germany were renowned for their culture. For their appreciation of art and philosophy. Bach and Mozart were both Germanic composers and widely regarded as some of the greatest artists to ever live. Juxtapose that with what the Germans are doing here during the holocaust. They don’t even recognize their once great culture anymore. They went from a nation of poets and thinkers to a nation of guards and butchers.
It's only cuz the scene has been cut out of the whole movie. You would be depressed at the start of scene and wouldn't find it funny if were watching whole movie
An incredibly sad and horrifying scene. A most important history lesson to be learned. Even if you escape the initial wave of attacks, don't stay. A cleanup crew will be back later to finish off what was missed the 1st time.
Germany. A land of military pride and tradition, ageless history, countless amounts of world renowned artists and musicians such as Bach and Mozart. Became a twisted rendition of itself, and is something this scene portrays amazingly.
It was the choice of Spielberg to have this film in black and white. The colorless scenes makes highlighting the human features much more prominent. And it instantly sets the mood of the film.
That last little scene with automatic gun shots in several different apartments at once with them wishing the night were over like it's some retail job is as haunting as it gets. You guys don't know until you see your family members becoming victims in needless genocide
@Valdis4418 ... Way to be argumentative for the sake of it, but okay. I meant "for some reason" when compared to the rest of the film. The film has many frightening and intense scenes of murder and slaughter but this one stuck with me as a child. That's all. Be cool.
The Krakow ghetto "liquidation" scene was only a page in the script, but Steven Spielberg turned it into twenty pages and twenty minutes of screentime "based on living witness testimony". For example, the scene in which Leopold Pfefferberg escapes capture by German soldiers by telling them he was ordered to clear the luggage from the street and saluting them was taken directly from his own account.
At 2:29, the pain and exhaustion of the mass-murderer... No doubt a hard night of workload for him. A stark contrast to the tragedy and suffering of those people butchered. Very well made film of these atrocities.
Esta escena tiene un significado, el oficial de las SS que esta tocando el piano esta demostrando que es una persona educada, posiblemente un profesionista, lo que representa es que una persona refinada y educada también puede ser un mounstro.
For people interested in which composer's music you hear in this movie scene, this is Bach. The music that you hear is Bach's "English Suite No. 2 in A-minor". Brilliant tune.
That opening scene of the troops marching always gets me, pretty much the film conveys that these are not soldiers in any way, they’re death troopers, there to kill not an enemy of war, just people
That opening of the scene also has what I consider a GLARING historical inaccuracy...those "soldiers" would NOT have quick marched AROUND a little old Jewish lady in the middle of the street...they would have quick marched STRAIGHT THROUGH HER AND STRAIGHT OVER HER as if she were no more significant than a clod of dirt on the pavement.
Spielberg had the actor er on Mozart/Bach on purpose to give audiences something to "discover" or to talk about. And we are talking about it 20 years later.
This scene is so damn beautiful and masterfully directed, the vision of Spielberg is honestly dream like, the whole thing is just a PAINT BEAUTIFUL PAINT ON A CANVAS.
I think it's amazing how common Mozarts or Bachs songs were just close to 100 years ago and they were hundreds years passed already during WW2 as well, and compared to the knowledge someone may have to their songs now which would be commonly little to none.
The part where the two guys wonder if it's Bach or Mozart is where the internal dissociation of these people was most obvious. The superficial curiosity of the question was possible only because they bent to a maximum their perception of things around them.
I am a Polish-American. Our cousins in Poland who live in the country. Hid many, many Jews and help arranged many, many of them to freedom. God save Poland!
I think this is Spielbergs way of saying “my God, you’re Germans- a centuries old culture of masterpiece and beauty, how could your souls bear such shame?”
The juxtaposition of the casual demeanor of the S.S. Officer and his soldiers and the horrible atrocities they’re committing is so well done. Humans are terrifying.
Reminds me of a German quote: "das land der dichter und denker wurde zum land der richter und henker". Basically it means; the nation of thinkers and poets became the nation of judges and executioners. I think the piano scene perfectly visualises that quote.
@@Kavallero To the untrained ear they might sound similar, especially if you compare the two based on piano works. But Mozart is distinctly Mozart, as Bach is distinctly Bach.
To think these people were neighbours probably went to the same music classes, went to the same concerts and now they are enemies. This movie makes me very sad. Hatred is a terrible thing.
It's kinda surreal to think that this *actually happened*. It's not fiction, it's a depiction of something that did, indeed, happen mostly as depicted...
Have to say but as amazing as this film was, there are some deeply disturbing and hard to watch moments. This scene, the corpse burning and the maid being beaten are by far the most powerful but also probably sadly the truest events of the film.
People really need to understand that as a soldier you could be shot for disobeying orders. And that like any soldier in any military in the world, they gave an oath to follow said orders. I think this really seems to be lost on so many people who can't understand why normal people commit horrible acts
It still blows me away that Spielberg was essentially working on Schindler’s List and Jurassic Park at the same time. 93 was a good year for him.
He said he did Jurassic Park first, because he knew he wouldn’t want to do it after Schindler‘s list

Ngl the shot at the beginning with The march looks badass.
Like stormtroopers marching.
If we talk about the directing..this is one of the most beautiful scenes of the entire movie..
1:12 when you find all your bois in the same spot during hide and seek
Pls don't joke with that okay?
@@toulousegrande7076 No
I think it's amazing how common Mozarts or Bachs songs were just close to 100 years ago and they were hundreds years passed already during WW2 as well, and compared to the knowledge someone may have to their songs now which would be commonly little to none.
"its all because of that damn cellphone"- Graystillplays, 2019
Wobderful soundtrack that fits the moment perfectly.
0:06 is such a cool angle
0:18 I think that guy was a doctor
Goeth is a typical psychopath. He is murdering people but he can only feel sorry for himself.
The part where the two guys wonder if it's Bach or Mozart is where the internal dissociation of these people was most obvious. The superficial curiosity of the question was possible only because they bent to a maximum their perception of things around them.
That dude on the left looks like me
sly nation thank u for sharing
this is the most darkest humour I've seen so far
what do you mean?they are jews.
He means the piano playing behind the massacre
@@mindfucker88 polish Jews, they speaked polish instead of yidish
And the way the subject they focus on at the situation is, of all things, whether the officer is playing Bach or Mozart. This scene got me.
I am a Polish-American. Our cousins in Poland who live in the country. Hid many, many Jews and help arranged many, many of them to freedom. God save Poland!
I think this is Spielbergs way of saying “my God, you’re Germans- a centuries old culture of masterpiece and beauty, how could your souls bear such shame?”
The juxtaposition of the casual demeanor of the S.S. Officer and his soldiers and the horrible atrocities they’re committing is so well done. Humans are terrifying.
It was in fact, not Mozart. So.
It was Bach’s English suite No 2 first movement
Reminds me of a German quote: "das land der dichter und denker wurde zum land der richter und henker". Basically it means; the nation of thinkers and poets became the nation of judges and executioners. I think the piano scene perfectly visualises that quote.
I Love that the piano picks up as the hunt intensifies.
2:20 Pontius Pilate
Bach or Mozart? While u all argue about the Second World War and it's outcome, u forgot the original question...
It's Bach.
@0eF67 P Calm down, dude. Mozart was influenced by Bach so they sometimes do sound the same.
@@Kavallero they don't sound the same lmao
Kavallero Radar O’Reilly: “Ah Bach.”
@@Kavallero To the untrained ear they might sound similar, especially if you compare the two based on piano works. But Mozart is distinctly Mozart, as Bach is distinctly Bach.
nobody:
absolutely no one:
Germans when they hear someone talking under the floorboards:
To think these people were neighbours probably went to the same music classes, went to the same concerts and now they are enemies. This movie makes me very sad. Hatred is a terrible thing.
It's kinda surreal to think that this *actually happened*. It's not fiction, it's a depiction of something that did, indeed, happen mostly as depicted...
Yeah, happens in Palestine as we speak.
@@BananaSlug911for real hamas and isreal causing way too much innocents deaths for something that is not worth it
Have to say but as amazing as this film was, there are some deeply disturbing and hard to watch moments. This scene, the corpse burning and the maid being beaten are by far the most powerful but also probably sadly the truest events of the film.
1:32
This shot right here always gives me goosebumps
What I got from this scene was even the educated and higher class of society can be murderers.
You can either overcome hate, or it overcomes you.
People really need to understand that as a soldier you could be shot for disobeying orders. And that like any soldier in any military in the world, they gave an oath to follow said orders. I think this really seems to be lost on so many people who can't understand why normal people commit horrible acts
