"Schindler's List" referred to the hundreds of thousands of names of Jews who worked in a factory, for a man name Oskar Schindler. Whoevers name was on Schindler's list, was saved from the harsh treatments of the Nazi Concentration camps, but those who weren't so lucky had to face hardship and pain . The film imitates the events that actually took place during the Holocaust. It showed how the Jews were forced to leave their comfortable lives, into one that would rob them of their pride and dignity, leaving their hearts battered and their minds with dreadful memories. It showed courage of a people. But as generations grow it teaches us that all men are moral, yet are cruel to one another.
Watching the film brought tears to my eyes, for there were so many powerful scenes. But the scenes that spoke to me the most, was when an innocent old man who had done no harm, was brought out of the group, and was shot once in the head. When he was shot he fell onto the snow, with his eyes open. His eyes looked up into the skies as if he was beckoning to God,for answers; while his blood was overflowing like a stream, turning the pure white snow red. The other scene that spoke to me was when the children were taken away from their mothers, left without a mothers care, not knowing where they were going or what would happen to them; not knowing their lives would be cut short.
The images from the film that will stay with me in my heart, are the images of rivers of blood, the endless tears of children, the screams and pleads for help, the many faces that lay with questioning eyes, and concentration camp. I will remember these images , because it will remind me of how lucky I am as an individual and that there are people in this world who are in far worst situations than me. Also , if i should ever say anything hateful to anyone, i will remember that a hateful word is what cause the Holocaust.
