Profile of Schindler's List

Schindler's List can be described as disturbing, bleak, and emotional. The plot revolves around the Holocaust, a conspiracy against humanity, and antiheroes. The main genres are drama, historical, and period. In terms of style, Schindler's List is epic. In approach, it is serious and realistic. It is set, at least in part, in a ghetto and in a concentration camp. Schindler's List takes place during World War 2. Visually, it is partly black and white. It is drawn from a biography and originally a true story. Schindler's List has received attention for being a modern classic, an Oscar winner, and a masterpiece. Note that it involves strong violent content, nudity, and profanity.

Summary of Schindler's List

Based on a true story, Schindler's List is Steven Spielberg's epic drama of World War II Holocaust survivors and the man who unexpectedly came to be their savior. Unrepentant womanizer and war profiteer Oskar Schindler uses Polish Jews as cheap labor to produce cookware for the Third Reich. But after witnessing the violent liquidation of the walled ghetto where the Krakow Jews have been forced to live, Schindler slowly begins to realize the immense evil of Nazism. When his employees are sent to a work camp, they come under the terrorizing reign of sadistic Nazi Amon Goeth (Ralph Fiennes). With the help of his accountant, Itzhak Stern (Ben Kingsley), Schindler creates a list of "essential" Jews. Bribing Goeth, Schindler manages to get 1,100 people released from the camp and brought to the safety of his munitions factory in Czechoslovakia. Spielberg's glorious film is wondrously evocative, visually stunning, and emotionally stirring.

Rolling Stone

Schindler's List, despite blatant compromises, is a rending historical document. But the film's near-certain victory is based less on merit than on the marketing of its ambitious intentions. The academy doesn't judge movies, it weighs them by... Full Review
