A real hero does not brag of those he saved, he mourns those he could not. That last scene is in my opinion one of the most powerful ever filmed.
That is so beautiful. Agreed
I agree, and it is that scene that sticks in my head the most
That's bullshit. People that brag about who they saved are still heroes. And more than you will ever be
@@imwinningthisone7613wow you seem really angry 😳
@@samhain1894 Ah yes, facts = mad
It's, more or less, based on true events and those ppl were real. This story took place in my country, Poland. For me, it's one of the most important movies in history and yet, in depicting of war crimes, it's not even close to WW2 real horrors. Amon Goth was way more cruel and sadistic than what was shown in the movie and there were dozens of ppl like him. The former Shindler's Factory in Krakow is now a museum you can visit - it's a strong experience. Another great movie that is based on real events from WW2 is "The Pianist" directed by Roman Polanski with the main role played by Adrien Brody. Only by knowing history we have a chance to avoid its biggest mistakes.
Another great movie about WII is the polish film Katyn.
Learning from history we learn that Roman Polanski is a wanted fugitive on multiple counts of raping under age girls.
Yes this movie has real events would happen World War II but a lot of people don't know it was the far-right Republican Party responsible for the Holocaust!
If i remember correctly, the movie is around 90% completely based on what really happened. When it came out it was a big thing that it so close to reality that it could be.
@@Mumrik93 I think most things are pretty accurate. There are few things dealing with shindler and what happened after he departed and went into hiding that weren't included so I can't really say that's not accurate. If it wasn't part of the post-war, it's just too much to be included. He went into hiding because he was after all a member of the Nazi party. He went to Argentina. Eventually came back to Europe. Was given 15,000 USA Dollar because he was indigent. Someone can make a movie about that but it should not be some sort of sequel to the original Schindler's list Imo. If you do not know about these things post-war, you would find it pretty fascinating. 🙏
Amon Göth's granddaughter is a black woman. Her name is Jennifer Teege. She wrote a book called "My grandfather would have shot me"...
Yes that is true her mom was the daughter of Amon Goeth , the murderous campcommander , and her dad was a man from Nigeria , shel lives in Germany !
His daughter brought shame to her ancestors.
@@Jodyjo99 or she just wasnt crazy.
Wow….interesting fact.
@@Jodyjo99Shut up
Pay no attention to the people complaining that you don’t know these events. What matters is, you’re seeing it now. It was a major part of history. And I hope you two will continue to learn the events of World War II, and the holocaust. I’m still watching the reaction, but am enjoying it. I appreciate how you two are taking in all that is happening. Thank you for this reaction.
I see from your replies that you DO know about the holocaust. That is good! ☺️
Thank you for your kind words ❤️ yes we know about the holocaust we just didn’t know about Shcindler and based on our research we’ve learned that some of the story which happened in the movie wasn’t entirely true but Schindler is a real person and he saved his workers. This was a beautiful movie.
@@JynxRyl all movies based on true stories have parts that are fiction and didn't really happen
I just got done leaving them a comment on how much they don’t know when how embarrassing it is before even seeing your comment.. and I wouldn’t change a damn thing about my comment because these kids today are so clueless. It’s painful to me and deserve to have people shaming them because if no one shames these people anymore, or anybody else, then nothing will ever change. The people that want to just be overly nice and give give give him not teach like you are the people to stay away from.
@@bmorg5190 Thank you for agreeing and to be honest I asked one of my son's friends where was the war in Vietnam fought and I know my son knows but his friend answered with Afghanistan
The Jeweler who made the ring at the end of the movie was the cousin of my wife's grandfather. The basic story is true but like any movie things were changed.
The gas chamber did not use gasoline it used poison gas.
For affect Speilberg made the shower scene look like a possible gas scene. However, the showers in Auschwitz were open air and would have never been confused for a gas chamber. Stern was a combination of about 5 people one of whom was named Izak Stern.
If you were non essential you were killed plain and simple. So the kids who were taken away were transported either to Mauthausen or Auschwitz so that they could be put to death. The children after Schindler saved his woman were being taken under the same argument they were not essential.
Schindler happened to be in jail during the above episode so again liberties were taken here for the movie.
Schindlers Jews never forgot him. He was invited to all family celebrations and when he was down on his luck they raised money for him. Finally they paid for his body to be transported and interred in Jerusalem.
Where did you see gasoline in the gas chamber?
@@mythgreatbritain5634 they mentioned gasoline during the reaction.
I don't remember the context of the use of the word gasoline in the movie, but gasoline is a liquide, so I hardly think they ment to say they used gasoline to gas. Also the gas Zyklon B is a pretty infamous and known name at this point.
I saw nothing in the movie that would imply "gasoline" was used in the gas chambers. In Aushwitz, few people arriving on the transports had any time to even discern what was a "shower area". The vast majority of them were dead within an hour after getting off the train. The "processing of arrivals was very fast and efficient. The point of the shower scene was not fool the modern audience but to share the experience of the people who would encounter it. They DIDN'T know anything that was in the camp or what was about to happen to them at any given moment and that's the point. Primo Levi explained this experience of constant uncertainty as an Auschwitz prisoner in his book SURVIVAL AT AUSCHWITZ.
@@davestang5454 I don't know about these people spesifically, but hiding jews did know. Talk and rumours about the horrors that was happening in the camps was well known among them. And no they didn't know exactly what was going to happen at any given time, no how the camp was built, but most of them had some sort of an idea.
I must say that you two young ladies are more intelligent, level headed and a joy to watch a movie with than 90 percent of reactors out there.
In the theater where we watched this movie at the end, no one moved for several minutes. It was total silence. And as we filed out of the theater, not a dry eye.. It was eerie. The most emotional experience I ever experienced in a movie.
It was complete silence when my 17 year old self and friends rode in a van 30 miles to get home!
This is a Movie that everyone must see at least once.
Lol you fell for jewish propaganda
This is a true story. The scary thing though, is that they had to tone down the violence and death in order to make it believable.
As a Jew and Israeli gay guy I appreciate the fact that you two young ladies sat and watched a movie that has all the disadvantages from the beginning (Black and white, long movie and war genre).
You succeed very well
You learn new things every day.
מי שהציל נפש אחת כאילו הציל עולם ומלואו
Whoever saves a single soul as if he saved the world entire ❤
We appreciate you ❤️
omg pls cry me another river m8
stop being gay
black and white ....ok. But since when are "long movie" and "war genre" disadvantages? Maybe for children which they aren't.
Why mention that you’re gay?
Ignore the ones complaining, yes I knew about the holocaust but I did not know about Schindler until this movie came out, same as you. Thanks for the reaction on the movie, it was good.
Thank you for this. We like learning new things and we can’t know everything. And I’m happy we found this movie so now we know about Schindler ❤️. We appreciate you.
They didn't know that much because they didn't understand the gas chamber scene. Not sure how you could know about the holocaust and NOT know or understand that scene and why they were all screaming.
When Steven Spielberg asked John Williams to compose the music for this movie he showed him a rough cut of the movie. Williams was so overwhelmed by the movie he told Spielberg that he couldn't because he wasn't good enough to do this movie justice. Spielberg replied to Williams " Yes I know, but all the others are dead"
yeah we all know that...
@@lnz971 Not the reactors.
I don't blame you for not understanding the shower scene but it made me sad.
I'm sure someone mentioned in the comments below, but if not, the Germans gassed Jews in rooms designed to look like showers to keep them complacent. They were told they were going to get a shower, would be sealed in, and then poisonous gas would vent in through the shower heads. Stories of this rapidly spread throughout Europe, sometimes passed off as simple rumors. The women in the scene are anticipating death. That's why when it turns out to be a shower - it's such a joyful relief.
And then, on their way out of the showers, they see others going into the building were gassing was done. Understanding that their joy is tempered by the death of others. They are lucky. Many, many more were not so.
I have to correct you on one point: the gas didn't come "through the shower heads" (these were just dummies), but rather there were slots through which gas containers were inserted (source: "The Case for Auschwitz", S. 206f.). Thats the only point.
A very important reaction. And a lesson to why we must never let this be forgotten. Thank you Ladies for watching.
The girl in red was a way to show that Schindler noticed her at a couple of turning points as his views evolved from purely profiteering to having some empathy. Although the Schindlers marriage failed and they separated, as Catholics it wasn't possible for them to divorce during that era. The movie adheres closely to real events (and the memories of survivors), but it was based upon a novel that put the events together in a narrative that includes things like private conversations (that can only be speculated) to tie the plot together. If anything, the horror depicted in this film was greatly toned down in order to be watchable. Amon Goeth, who was so well portrayed by Ralph Fiennes, was certainly a drunk, bigot, and sadist of the first order. Schindler was a longtime member of the Nazi Party and had worked to have his native Czechoslovakia annexed by Germany prior to the start of World War II. Great film to cover in your reviews: technically it is exquistely crafted, and the story is astounding and came out when there were still eyewitnesses - so great that those last scenes where the actors accompanied the real people they had portrayed allowed survivors to testify to what they'd experienced. Everyone in the cast gave career-best performances, too.
BTW, children, old people, women without needed skills, people who were disabled or unhealthy, were immediately killed which is why the children were separated. The women's hair was cut and stockpiled for various industrial uses (gunsights, rope fiber, bomb triggers, wool socks, carpets, upholstery stuffing, etc.). At Auschwitz, people were separated into 2 lines: one went to gas chambers that were disguised as showers and were killed by gassing; the other line went to actual showers where they were showered and processed for work in the camp. Even though an overwhelming percentage would die before the war's end, people sent to Auschwitz had a better chance of survival than Jews who lived in rural areas and small towns throughout eastern Europe, most of whom were simply rounded up and shot locally.
Actually according to Spielberg the Girl in the Red Coat was to symbolize all the nations that knew about the Holocaust but ignored it for years.
The girl in red was real Spielberg said Schindler actually saw her theres a vid of him talking about it
Fiennes portrayed him so well that during filming an older lady who was helping with accuracy, who was one of the survivors went into hysterics the first time she saw him in his costume, thinking that Goeth had come back from the dead to finish her off.
17 members of my family were murdered in the holocaust. Thank you for honoring their memory. May we never forget.
Amon Goeth (played by Ralph Fiennes, aka Voldemort), aka "I pardon you", has a half-German, half-black granddaughter. She has a book about discovering who her grandfather is, called My Grandfather Would Have Shot Me: A Black Woman Discovers Her Family’s Nazi History. Her name is Jennifer Teege. Very interesting book!
I need to read this! Thank you!
@@emmaflo4711 You’re welcome!
Seeing the little girl with the red coat dead gets me every time. She was so precious😢.
I remember watching this in 1993....I was only 26 years old.... and walked away from this film a changed person. This film, and 9/11.... were the only times in my life where I wept for complete strangers..... it'll stay with me until I die..... God rest all the souls of those persecuted for no reason.... my Indian brothers and Sisters....my African Brothers and Sisters... and the Jewish Community on a whole....I hold you close to my heart....I always will.....
Please, don't use "..." as space, comma or full-stop.
It reads and looks like a dog typed it.
@@OriginalPuro don't read it then.... think it through next time Sport. See how simple that was?
@@OriginalPuro Please refrain from making such arrogant comments next time. Thank you.
I'm so glad you two took the time to learn about this.
The water/shower scene was a relief for them because that's where they would be gassed. They were preparing them to be killed.
its never to late to learn history! thank you for the reaction
True story. There were many other German officials who also secretly helped. Some weren’t part of a underground resistance. They were just acting upon their inner convictions.
Unfortunately for Schindler's character, he had to learn late that people's intrinsic worth far exceeds any of the riches he might of gained in the world because a person's worth is typically incalculable, since no one can necessarily predict the value or resourcefulness that just one life might bring to so many others. 😔
Beautifully said 💜
@@JynxRyl
In one of your comments you said "The movie wasn't entirely true?" It was FAR FAR WORSE in reality. You don't even know the movie only shows showable aspects.
“I couldn’t see my wife any more, she was swallowed up in the crowd. I couldn’t see my son any more either, he was swallowed up in the crowd, but my little daughter had a red coat, and that little red dot getting smaller and smaller, this is how my family disappeared from my life.” DR Martin Foldi talking at the trial of Adolph Eichman about losing his family in the gas chambers of Auschwitz
I love when young people realize the true horrors of war, it gives hope that this kind of thing will not be repeated. Schindler changed from a profiteering industrialist to one of the greatest humanitarians ever, yet his story is not taught in schools. This is one man in history that should not be forgotten.
Although there hasn't been a movie made about him and he has mostly been forgotten, you might want to check out Japanese diplomat Sugihara Chiune. He saved 5x as many Jews as Schindler did. Check out the documentary about him on UA-cam.
@@ralphvelthuis2359 I think there are a lot more people who saved Jews and never got a movie.
C'est surtout terrifiant de voir que les jeunes ignorent totalement ce qui c'est passé il y a moins d'un siècle ...et pourtant avec un putain de téléphone qui a accès la plus grande banque d'information, internet ...
Thank you for such a sensitive, thoughtful reaction. Yes, it was a true story. It got to be a movie in a roundabout way. The original book was penned as a 'novel based on true events'. When Steven Spielberg learned about the book, he spent over a decade, contacting as many of Schindler's Jews as he could, along with Germans who had been there and other involved people who could still be interviewed; studied records and documents. So every moment that was used in the film was thoroughly researched, though compilations of some characters/scenes and so on were undoubtedly done to compress a few years of war into a couple of hours.
But, yeah, it's true and those are really Schindler's 'children' there at the end, accompanied by the actors who played them. I think the flower was left by Liam. It looks like him. Also, he's Christian. Jewish people have a tradition of leaving stones on graves.
So the film itself is the true story (with practical concessions made for a movie, and a lot of worse violence left out). The original novel took more liberties as the man who wrote that probably just didn't have the ability to track down people's accounts as Spielberg, and his was only written after speaking with the man who shared his story with him, so I guess he had less information to start with.
Spielberg's research for this film led to 'The Shoah Project' which went on for - - well, as long as until the last Jewish concentration camp survivor who'd been old enough at the time to remember enough for an interview could be found or found them. The Shoah Project interviewed something like 50,000 people. It might still be ongoing, but most of those people are likely gone.
Today, the Shoah Foundation continues to educate about and document survivors from other genocides around the world - - Cambodia, Rwanda, Armenia, Syria and more.
Anyway, thank you for reacting to this film. You both did great. All the best.
"Thoughtful"? You must be joking. These two are as clueless as a 5 yo.
@@rightfulcop Yes. Thoughtful. I'm Jewish and I didn't know who Oskar Schindler was until this movie came out. I appreciate people who want to take the time to learn. It means a lot to me. So, yeah. I mean what I wrote. And their comments were very thoughtful, unlike yours.
@@jillk368 their comments were ignorant, not thoughtful and you are a moron if you are Jewish and only learned about Oskar Schindler from a movie. You appreciate ppl who want to learn, from where, a movie? You learn from books, classes and at school prior to watching Hollywood movies, but you wouldn't know. And btw being Jewish and oblivious to your own heritage are not mutually exclusive, hence your silly comment.
When I saw this in the cinema as a teen I held it together - almost broke down in front of my girlfriend, but kept it together
Then when it went to color and showed the real people I lost it
The whole theater sat in silence after the credits
Grateful for this reaction. This is one of the most important films out there. Everyone should watch it at least once. Such an important dark time in history we must never forget.
My grandparents suffered through this, and this is only half of what they went through. True horrors.
I recommend Defiance with Daniel Craig and The Pianist with Adrian Brody. Both are also true stories during this time period and are very well done.
The pianist is great, yes
The "I could have got one more person out..." speech is the most guaranteed tear-jerker scene since "Bambi." I mean that as a high compliment! And you guys, properly, were wiping your eyes. Amazing movie. Great reaction. Never again.
Thank you guys for watching this many of my great grandparents and great cousins and other extended family died in the holocaust
Thanks ladies, you're both so sweet. 'You live what you learn' - how true and how perfect for this occasion.
i love at the end when the schindler jews walk by his grave along side with the actor who played them in this film
A movie that should not ever be forgotten, in this lifetime , or any future lifetime.
It should be mandatory in schools, everywhere, period.
"It's allright, it's not that kind of a kiss." is very impactful, when you understand how thoroughly dehumanized Jews had become - his kiss was a reassurance to her - "not that kind of a kiss" is what you give a mother, or a sister, a friend - a fellow human! "Thank you!" she says.
Yes, this is a true story. My folks were Italian American. When I was a boy in the Bronx, NY, an old lady fixed my hand after I was bleeding from a very bad injury jumping a fence which would have required stitches. But there was no one to take me to the hospital and I had ran to her apartment. I saw a tattoo'd number on her arm while she wrapped the wound, and didn't know what it was until my father told me. I couldn't believe it. I was born only 8 years after this happened, and I never from that time on, trusted human beings to not be capable of evil.
Good story, Dan. As a kid from the Bronx everyone I knew and practically all my neighbors had done something life changing during the War. By far the nice guy in the local deli had the worst of it, with the number tattoo on his arm.
Thanks for your reply, well said. My dad and uncles all served in WW2. We began learning about these things from them, and in school, where there was no such justification for hatred as there seems to be today. We are going backwards it seems.
@@johannesvalterdivizzini1523
yes its a true story.....i got a goosebumps in last scene where real n reel characters are coming together......
humanity wins afterall
THE GIRLS KNEW ABOUT THE WAR, AND THE HOLOCAUST…. NOT SCHINDLER’S LIST. Which MOST people didn’t know about until the movie came out! Why all the anger?! If you’re so upset about a reaction, then leave the video. It’s that easy!
I'm Jewish and even went to Hebrew School. And I had never heard of Schindler prior to this movie coming out. For that matter, I didn't know about the Holocaust until my Bat Mitzvah year of Hebrew School (age 12-13). I remember coming home and asking my parents why I didn't know. I remember my mom just kind of said that it wasn't something she liked to talk about, and that her mother's generation pretty much didn't talk about it at all, including survivors, for years or decades. Many Jewish people, post war and until recent years, really didn't talk about the Holocaust. I haven't watched this reaction yet. I've gotten in the habit of skimming comments before I watch reaction videos. But based on a couple of comments here, I'm getting the idea that commenters are making a lot of assumptions where they should be embracing the idea that new people are learning about this part of history. It's important not that we know everything, but that we are interested in knowing more things, and taking the time to learn. I'm putting this video on my playlist.
@@jillk368 it honestly seems like a generational thing, even the non jewish soldiers from ww2 didn't talk about the war when they got back.
@@kevinprzy4539 I don't doubt it; it must be unimaginably difficult to go through the trauma of war on a daily basis and then come home to people who love you but can't really understand what you've been through.
Liam Neeson destroys it that last seen when re regrets not doing enough. It's insane how good he is in that sequence.
It's a true story. Of course there are a few Hollywood liberties but the story is true and the people at the end were the real people.
Hey ladies, just started checking out your reaction videos and they are great! And yes, Schindler’s is a true story. I do believe people need to learn the past. Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. You ladies are beautiful, and keep up the great content. Much love and respect. Be safe, God Bless.
I believe that during the shooting of the movie filming was so tough that Spielberg used to phone Robin Williams up and get him to talk and tell jokes to help alleviate his terrible feelings and emotions.....
Thank you so much for this reaction. The movie is heartbreaking. The reality is 1000 times worse. Sorry about the jerks in the comments. 💔
It was funny that you said the guy who Goeth tried to shoot and the guns wouldn't fire, was protected by God. He was the Rabbi so i guess if anyone was going to be protected by God it would be him. Just wanted to point that out because you didn't seem to make the connection between that scene and later when we realize that he was the Rabbi. Great reaction ladies.
Hardly any first time reactors catch that. I know I didn't.
It's sad that the younger people today are not taught history in school. The actual events were a little different but it is essentially a true story.
I was taught important information at home, as well as at school...
@@sonyabyrd8739 How wonderful for you. I hope you (now) realise that every household is different.
Wow - I never thought about how it would feel to watch this whole movie without knowing it's a true story. I was crying along with you at the end. Thank you for taking the time to watch this film - I know it's a very difficult one to get through - and to learn about these stories. It really means a lot 💗
I think my favorite scene is the "pardon" scene. He actually does try to follow Schindler's advice and hand out pardons, but after he pardons that boy for not getting the stains out of the tub, he looks in the mirror and has a moment of honest self reflection...even if it is fleeting. When he touches the mirror and pardons himself, I believe he is contemplating whether redemption really is possible for him. He looks uncomfortable even looking at himself in the mirror and realizes it isn't possible. If redemption isn't possible, there is no reason try and change his ways anymore.
Also he saw that some of the dirt from the bathtub had gotten on or/and underneath his fingernails. And that was the end of that I believe. Hense the nail cleaning scene right after he k*lled that poor boy.
In my high school we had a descendant of the couple that got married during the Holocaust to speak to us about how it's important to know our history. He also told us that in the movie "SCHINDLER’S LIST" there is a scene in the memory of his parents. That same day I looked and watch the "SCHINDLER’S LIST" for the fist time.
The man who leaves a rose at the end was Stephen Spielberg. This story is 100% true, but Spielberg said that this was the sanitized version, he said what really happened the Jews during WW2 was too horrific to fully realize on film. Every young person should learn this in History class, but i suppose American schools are too preoccupied with American History, even though so many Jewish people were able to emigrate to the United States and make a life for themselves here because of the selfless sacrifices of real men like Oskar Schindler.
The kinda smaller scenes that get me are them showing them separating their belongings like gold teeth, like they really wanted everything for them. And Helen’s speech has so much despair of having no set of rules to live by because he would beat her no matter what
The shower scene was because the prisoners were told they were to be showered and deloused (and the haircuts) but in fact they would be murdered by poison gas. The bodies were then cremated, hence the chimneys. The hair was used for various manufacturing products.
THAT LOOK YALL GAVE EACH OTHER at 20:37 😩👏🏽
I can watch a lot of things, but I had to take multiple breaks watching this movie. I was named after someone who survived the holocaust so it hits very close to home. I love this reaction, thank you 🙏🏼❤
Hi
The fact that the evil Officer in this movie also plays a Senator in Maid in Manhattan tells me everything I need to know about him as an actor because WOW. Also, Liam has been a babe ever since I saw him in A Woman of Substance ❤❤❤ RIEP Natasha Richardson 🕊💔
Thank you for reacting to this. Such an important part of history we need to remember so it doesn’t repeat itself.
I saw an interview with the blonde German girl yelling “Good bye Jews”, she was a young actress and wasn’t aware of the horrific atrocities that occurred. When she saw the movie she was deeply traumatized and never sought an acting career afterwards.
She was portraying a Pole.
Jyn and Ryl, One of the most brutal parts of the movie is when the little boy has to jump in the latrine to hide from the Germans. -------- I just picture myself hiding from a monster in a filthiest place I could ever imagine and times that by 10. -------- Only to be told by other kids to get out, this is there place to hide. ------- At that moment, I always become that little boy cold and afraid, hiding from the monsters.
You should be commended for watching this....we ALL live and learn each day. Well done. You are beautiful and intelligent young ladies.
Well done for looking at this film in remembrance of all those poor souls who were murdered
it makes me happy that you two obviously care about what's happening. But it makes me sad that you don't know more about what happened. Got to love that education system. Top notch!
I love the way y'all are cool at 10.37 before you start to experience the horror.
Thank you for watching these true events. History isn’t taught in schools like it used to be . If it isn’t there is great danger that mankind does not learn from it and repeats it. Other camps were much worse. Please looks up Nicholas Winton a quiet humble British ma. Who saved many many Jewish children on the kinder Transport. Our dear beloved Queen Elizabeth the second knighted him. Sir Nicholas. God bless you both for your service
Great Reaction Ladies !!! You Both have Very Kind Hearts !!
Hey Jyn and Ryl, Ralph Fiennes (Lieutenant Goeth) and many Nazls had no empathy or feeling for the Jewish people, they stomp them out like roaches. Goeth only likes his maid Helen, the way like your favorite coffee cup or shirt.--------- He sees her as an object he has gotten attached to. --------- He doesn't see her as a human being. --------- The Brutality humans can inflict under the guise of war, is so sickening.
Just recently read a that black german girl found out that her grand father was Amon Goeth. I feel for her.
Thank you , i'm a jewish girl, I hope you guys are doing well, And as well, God bless israel! Amen, Do not forget,🇮🇱
It is an absolute true story. They even left all of Schindler's faults in tact.
Ladies, I would like to thank you for giving us a very beautiful reaction video. Watching you react to Schindler's List for the first time reminded me of when I went to see this film in 1993 at the theater. You felt the same pain audiences did back in 1993. This is a very difficult movie to watch, but so important to show and keep in the minds of people. Regarding the little girl in red, I remember an interview Steven Spielberg gave where he explained the little girl in the red coat represented America. She represented the fact that not only the German people, but the people of the world, including America were aware of the atrocities happening in the death camps during World War II.
Im not sure if the Allies did know what was going on for sure; when they discovered the concentration camps i think they were genuinely shocked and horrified
@@paulinegallagher7821 I agree with you. I'm not sure exactly whom Speilberg was referring to in his quote, possibly the American Government?
Amon was trying to get shindler a pardon. It's the one time we see him doing something good.
The little girl in the red coat, is a first encounter of a little girl walking between soldiers, as if she was invisible. I watched a show on how Schindler's list was made. And, Steven Spielberg said that it made such an impression on him, that he had to highlight it
Y’all are golden.🌹🌹
When I saw this in the theater, everyone was in tears.
It is a true story. You might want to check out a book by Jennifer Tiege, a biracial German woman. Her mother was German and her father Nigerian. She was adopted as a child. In late thirties she discovered that her grandmother was Amon Gothe's mistress, that murdering soldier, and that birth mother was his child. " My Grandfather would have shot me"
Hey Jyn and Ryl, The director Spielberg made this movie for his mother. ---------- Who lived through many of these atrocities of German persecution. ---------- He refused to even consider making this movie for the better part of 15 years. ---------- He thought the responsibility was to great a burden to bear, especially if he got the outcome was not his best, even better than his best.
The only reason people know of Schindler is because of the movie, yes some knew of him before the movie, but very few. If you haven’t seen this film or had someone tell you about it, then you would never know about it. Its not exactly a common conversation topic lol but it is such a great film, it took me a long time to watch it because people told me all about it, so I thought “I already know what happens, why watch it?” But then I did and I was not prepared. I thought I knew, but I didn’t at all.
I am an old german man (63)and I was crying just like you lovely ladies! 😢
Great reaction. Glad you are learning about an important, tragic event in human history.
The girl in 'red' was important to the movie, as it's what really opens Schindler's eyes to what is happening around him, and makes him decide, 100%, to help the Jewish people.
Hope that one day we can try to live with more peace in our hearts....one day! Keep smiling 👍🙂
The guy who they couldn’t kill was actually a rabbi and reportedly actually happened.
Very respectful and quiet reaction, perfect for such a poignant movie.
The silence resulted from not understanding a single bit of what was going on, not from respect.
9:38 "Better this month than last. Any reason to think next month's will be worse?"
"The war could end."
If you're a defense contractor, war can be _extraordinarily profitable,_ provided you can keep the fighting away from your infrastructure. Every country in Europe became embroiled in WWII, with the exception of Switzerland and Ireland. So did the US, but the defense contractors in the US ended up making money hand over fist from the war, while every business owner in Europe (outside of those two countries) was left _destitute._
The part where his wife is like: "Promise me there will be no other women in your life but me." and it abruptly cuts to Schindler smiling and waving goodbye as her train pulls out of the station... that's supposed to be funny, right? Lol cuz I always laugh
A true stroy about the power of humanity, telling us all what is possible to prevent us from racism, totalism, if we stand our ground. Awesome.
This Movie is a Master Piece and even that I know what is coming I always cry when Schindler left "his" Jews. Powerful and important Moviel.
Loved your reaction ❤️
Yes this was a true story.
It might sound just unbelievable, but Amon Goeths grandchild is actually a black woman (-->Jennifer Teege)!! She had no idea about her family because she was adopted. One day she went into a library, took a random book out of the shelf, and on this random book cover there was a a small picture of an old woman on the cover. By browsing threw this book, she finds out that it was the story about her cruel grandfather.
Just found your channel! Love you both so much already! :] One of my favorite movies
It was a true story, and this was the movie which made Liam Neeson a household name. After he became the teacher of Obi-Wan, teacher of Batman, and someone saying I will find you the most threatening. I think Darkman was before this film
There are way more good people than you know. Thanks for sharing.
55:09 that is a true history ❤🇮🇱🙏🏻🥲
Lovely ladies, I enjoyed watching your reaction to this great film. I’m sure by now you’ve understood it was real events & the ppl at the end were the real people & their descendants from the real 2nd world war who were saved by Schindler. I’ve subbed coz you are sweet guiros & I enjoyed this vid. 💚
Just stumbled upon your channel today. After I watched your reaction to Django and Braveheart I thought to myself "I hope they reacted to Schindlers List", and indeed you did. For me as a German it is particularly hard to be faced with the crimes of my people's past in such a way, but still it's one of my favorite movies.
(Just to be clear, before anyone complains, no I do not feel guilty or responsible for the crimes that were commited by the German people during WW2, but it is still part of the history of my country, and this history has to be faced and processed.)
Powerful, yet painful movie. But everyone should watch it once. So glad you’re open and willing to learn. 😊❤
I've never seen a reaction to this movie where tears weren't shed by those reacting. This is a first.
It´s pretty obvious they didn´t know what they were reacting to. How tf can you laugh through this movie? Ignorant women...
Yes, shinler's list is a true story. And the person who left the rose is the actor Liam Neeson
It's a true story ladies. About the great man, Oscar Shindler who did save all these people during world war two. The film is based on the book by Thomas Keneally. And in turn made into this film, by Steven Spielberg. One of the greatest directors of all time.
Love your purple bandana 👌🏻 love from Knoxville TN 11💜22
You asked why they were killing the people who they found hiding in the ghetto - everyone was supposed to be out of the ghetto, so anyone they found hiding there was doing so "illegally" and was obviously a "troublemaker" that they didn't want to have to deal with in the camps, so they shot them on sight. If you were a Jew, you couldn't make trouble or take a break, or fail to work efficiently, because the efficient compliant workers were the only ones that had any value, and were thus allowed to continue to live. Anyone who couldn't or wouldn't work was either shot or sent to a deathcamp. Children typically couldn't work, so they were shipped off to be killed, which is why the guards at Auschwitz tried to keep the kids from boarding the train until Schindler explained how he used them to polish the insides of metal shell casings (thinking fast). In Auschwitz, they cut the womens' hair short because they used the hair to make yarn, from which socks for rail workers and submarine sailors were made (there were other uses for the hair as well; skin from corpses was used to make lampshades, and human fat was melted down for use in soap, too). The movie tones down the atrocities quite a bit, as Spielberg wanted people to actually be able to watch the movie, and was afraid that if he put in too much of the nasty crap the Nazis did to the Jews, people wouldn't watch. Yes, this is a true story at base, some parts were fictionalized to make a watchable, interesting movie, but as a whole, it's very real.
Since there appears to be some confusion, I should clear up that Auschwitz is often depicted as *the* concentration camp when it comes to references to the Holocaust. While it isn't the only one but it's notable in that complex - which is made of a number of labor and death camps - when combined is the largest concentration camp during the Nazi regime.
It is based on a true story, of course it is not a documentary, so some details did not happen or were different. For example Stern did not work alone, they put together three real existing characters to form Stern. Stern was one of them.
And one thing: The German author Jennifer Teege, a daughter of the German Monika Hertwig and a Nigerian student that had a short relationship, discovered at the age of 38 that her grandfather was Göth. Monika Hertwig was the daughter of the Austrian Amon Göth and his German girlfriend Ruth-Irene Kalder. She wrote a book about her feelings when she discovered it: "Amon. My grandfather would have shot me".
According to Stephen Spielberg in the 30th anniversary of the movie interview, he said the ignored little girl in the red coat represents the Jews' suffering. The world knew what was happening to the jews yet the world did nothing.
One of those movies everyone should watch atleast once.
Must see movie. Thank you for reacting.
