Schindler's List(1993)

Keeping viewers intent on a film by integrating a complicated but unique plot in my belief is one of the most beneficial aspects as a viewer. Schindler's List does a wonderful job of created a non-simplistic plot with its many shocking surprises on human morality.
Schindler's List is based during the Holocaust during World War II. Oskar Schindler, a mild mannered man at first takes strides to save Jews under his own will. Oskar Schindler uses an ingenues idea to save as many Jews as he can by having as many Jews as he can work for him at his factory for producing cookware for the Nazi army. At first Oskar Schindler does not realize that when his employers are being taken by Nazi Amon Goeth they are being taken to concentration camps to be executed. After realizing that there is a mass killing of Jews taking place, he takes into action. Along with Oskar Schindler is his accountant, Itzhak Stern, who also is realizing that these concentration camps are immoral and unjust. Oskar Schindler begins his attempt to save as many Jews as he can by dis telling stories to Nazi commanders that whatever employees they want to take, they cant, because they are suitable and capable of work labor even though that is a lie. He continues to twist stories and lies to manipulate Amon Goeth.
This film did a great job of capturing the elements of making the picture seem somewhat documentary. As seen in the movie's Saving Private Ryan, Band Of Brothers, etc.. Schindler's list used that picture technique to make a more powerful picture, rather than the typical modern day films which seem to always have a pattern of the same picture elements. Also, to show the true brutality in this film, many, many scenes showed very disturbing acts that the Nazi's used on the Jews in the concentration camps. It seemed so inhuman how the Nazi's treated Jewish people by acting like a genocide was no big deal and having no second thought on that it is in-ethical was just astounding.
Schindler's List impacted me in many ways, whether it was the affect of how someone can be so brave to risk their own life to save thousands of other lives, or whether it was how shocking it was to see how Innocent people such as Jewish people were being killed in the Nazi genocide of the Holocaust.
