Aussie boy's thoughts
This realistic black-and-white portrayal of the horrors of the Holocaust is so disturbing, lifelike, heartbreaking and painful that you won’t stand to witness it again, but can agree it owns unique significance. Seriously, Steven Spielberg has mastered depicting the pure evil of concentration camps in just about every single manner.
This historical war-related drama never shies away from brutal violence and horrific imagery, but also demonstrates that all it takes is one. It just takes one to make a massive and an extremely impactful difference. Schindler’s List is an amazing masterpiece that deserves its honour for several reasons other than just expertly-directing and astonishing performances. Stop there, severe thanks to Liam Neeson’s amazing performance representing an impatient war profiteer to a sincere hero.
Why Schindler’s List is so important and should certainly be seen by everyone is because of the whole depiction itself. Despite a 3-hour runtime, teens and adults will be strongly moved by the terror of concentration camps and the dread of the Auschwitz. The black-and-white fashion surprisingly increases the level of reality, accompanied by painfully graphic detail to reach the brim. Seriously, an amazing masterpiece! A truthful must-watch! There’s just some slowness prior to the the beginning of the shattering.
