The list is an absolute good. The list... is life.

The list is an absolute good. The list... is life. All around its margins lies the gulf. Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire.

The four shots that left the deepest impression on me, coal dust like snow, the little red girl walking through the shuttle, the people walking in colorful tones, and the stones built on Schindler's monument

I believe that Spielberg made the film in black and white just to present the first three shots. It can be said that they are classics and can be ranked at the forefront in my heart.

The coal ash falling like snow, needless to say in terms of content, is the burning of Jews by the Nazis. Coal ash is like snow, opening up the warmth and cold, just like life, from hot to cold, and then withered lightly.

The little girl in red who was walking through the crowd, without anyone else blocking her, seemed to be a ghost, looking for an exit, or hope? Perhaps Schindler saw her, she was just a secret thought in his mind, instructing him to do something.

Whether it is the erasure and trampling of human nature that makes people reflect, or the experience of similar ethnic groups is indeed easy to substitute, Germany constantly reflects on their mistakes, but that ethnic group is still shameless and has no history. I don’t know if I should feel shameful and sad for them. It's still ridiculous and pitiful, a distorted view of honor and disgrace that puts honor and disgrace above right and wrong.

Those tombstones laid on the ground are like coal ash floating from the sky, without any weight, eternal suffering, the brilliance of Schindler's name will continue to flicker, he may not be a German's pity for the Jews, but It is the sudden human nature, which may be a light that can guide people. That's how good movies are. Three hours makes people cherish them bit by bit, and feel the suffering in them. It's like the colic engraved in their hearts. Thanks to the person who gave hope.
