    At first glance, Oskar's disloyalty to his wife Emilie and the fact that he has a wife, a mistress, and a girlfriend might seem like a relatively unimportant part of Schindler's List. Schindler’s disloyalty is very easily interpreted as a background context for the book, and for the purpose of giving Oskar personality traits. Disloyalty is obviously a bad characteristic, but it’s possible we could empathise with Schindler now, because he is a flawed person, which is realistic and gives him a…

    The film Schindler’s list is set during WWII, and focuses on the horrible atrocities that happened to the Jews. I found it remarkable that the film was not portrayed from neither a German Nazi view, nor Jewish view. Schindler’s list shows the viewer the horror of the war and the suffering of those involved. The movie is based on Oskar Schindler’s role in saving 1.200 Jews during the war. At the start of the movie, Schindler was a member of the Nazi party and was only in Germany for one thing,…

    Schindler 's List (Steven Spielberg, 1993) is perhaps one of the greatest films in the late twentieth-century cinema. It encapsulates the brutality of the Holocaust as it evokes memories of atrocities of the World War II and a sense of inability to save innocent people. The film is shot in monochrome as Spielberg thinks it is more "realistic" and “closer to [a] documentary” of that time (Shandler 156). According to Jeremy Maron, Schindler 's List should primarily be understood as a melodrama; a…

    Steven Spielberg got around to developing Schindler’s List, the film industry was already flooded with movies about the Holocaust. But no one had ever presented that horrifying genocide like Spielberg’s 1993 film did— for that matter, no one has since been able to reach its level of mastery. From the poignant dialogue, to the cinematographic style, to the convincing performances by both seasoned and newcomer actors and actresses, Schindler’s List is the barometer by which all other historical…

    My take on the differences that exist between developed and developing nations fundamentally remains the same as it had before the viewing of this series. Ultimately, these beliefs remain consistent and this series delivers a perspective that, though new to me, still serves to reinforce my basic take on this. That is, that disparities in development and stability of nations, is not contingent on any differences in intelligence among the respective populace of nations, but rather it came down to…
