Film Lesson: "Schindler's List"

"Schindler's List" was about a man named Oskar Shindler who helped to save about over 100 Jews from being massacred at the Auschwitz, a concentration camp in Germany. He was a greedy German businessman who saved his workers from his factories, so that he wouldn't lose money. The Jews or his factory workers worked pretty much for free, and saving them from Hitler was like a way to repay them. He was a Nazi but not like the rest, i believe he had a heart.

One scene that will stay with me forever and that almost made me cry was the little girl with the red coat, it was soo sad to see a little innocent child get murdered just because they wanted to. The concentration camps were the worst scenes for the movie for me. Jewish families were separated by gender and age. The men that were too old, and the children since they couldn't work, they were immediately killed. The strong and healthy people survived. Most of the prisoners barely ate any food, at times they would die of starvation.

Film Lesson: Night and Fog

I think that "Night and Fog," a good documentary, it showed us scenes and pictures during the war, and it showed us the scenes from after the war. The scenes from after the war are the abandoned concentration camps or what are left from them. It has some strong footage, but i think its really good to know what really happened. The scenes from "Schindler's List" are a remake from what really happened, they are good because it gives a better look at what happened during the war more up close. I like "Schindler's List" better because the documentary may be real and all but the remake of the war gives you a more personal feel of the war, as if u there, because of the people telling their stories and their feelings.
