Was Oskar a god?or a saint?I don't think so.He was only been a profiteer and womanizer at first but he was a man who still had some humanity.He just didn't want to see innocent people killed only because they were jewish. I think this is showed precisely in the movie, which accords with my feeling very well.

Except for the colorful scenes at the end, there's only a girl in red which is not black n white in the film. I don' t know what it exactly means, maybe just a emphasis(I can't imagine another way to tell us it's the same girl. By the way, it's said in real history the girl survived unlike in the film, but if there were more than one girl in red in the war (it's probably right), you can't say they're definitely the same one).

S. Spielberg is a sensational storyteller and it's his masterpiece. It tells a long but seizing story that will never make you sleep.

Oskar is undoubtedly a charming man well performed by L. Neeson even since the very beginning in the movie, with the most popular melody also used in Scent of Women and True Lies. R. Fiensse is also incredible in acting like a beast. Their not winning Oscar is such a pity.

It's a good story but it's still not a ducumentary, so I can't say it's just the history, but it really shocks me.

At the end, the actors and the persons they're acting come to the grave of Schindler's in pairs. I think this originality is very interesting. Finally there's someone putting a bouquet of flowers on the grave instead of a pebble. Maybe you've gotten it, it's L. Neeson.

It says that whoever saves one life saves the world.

    It profoundly exposes the horrific crimes of the German fascists' slaughter of Jews, and is extremely artistic. The seriousness of its thoughts and extraordinary artistic expression have reached an almost insurmountable depth. We awarded it an Oscar award, which is well-deserved for the film's achievements. And Steven Spielberg also won the best director Oscar for the first time for this film. For his talent, this is a late affirmation. ——The 66th Academy Awards Jury

Schindler's List quotes

  • [last title card]

    Title card: There are fewer than 4000 Jews left alive in Poland today. There are more than 6000 descendants of the Schindler Jews.

  • Amon Goeth: Scherner told me something else about you.

    Oskar Schindler: Yeah, what's that?

    Amon Goeth: That you know the meaning of the word 'gratitude.' That it's not some vague thing with you like it is with others. You want to stay where you are. You've got things going on the side, things are good. You don't want anybody telling you what to do. I can understand all that. You know, I know you... What you want is your own sub-camp. Do you have any idea what's involved? The paperwork alone? Forget you've got to build the fucking thing, getting the fucking permits is enough to drive you crazy. Then the engineers show up. They stand around, they argue about drainage, foundations, codes, exact specifications, parallel fences four kilometers long, six thousand kilograms of electrified fences... I'm telling you, you'll want to shoot somebody. I've been through it, you know, I know.

    Oskar Schindler: Well, you know, you've been through it. You could make things easier for me. I'd be grateful.
