Schindler's List








By Seiji Kobayashi

Schindler’s List is one of my most favorite movies. Many Jewish people were killed by German army During the World War Ⅱ. It is called Holocaust. Oskar Schindler who was a businessman and was attached to the Nazis helped about the 1,100 Jewish people. This movie Schindler’s List is based on the fact.

Steven Allan Spielberg who directed the movie is also a Jewish American. This movie is almost black-white color. Spielberg said that this move should be black-white color because this movie is a historical movie. He thought that the movie could have reality if it is colored black-white.

“Though the film is primarily shot in black-and-white, red is used to distinguish a little girl in a coat. The red coat symbolizes the fact that Oskar Schindler has now opened his eyes to the cruelty which the Nazis are comitting on the Jews. Later in the film, she is seen dead, recognizable only by the red coat she is still wearing (Wikipedia, Schindler’s List).”The scene gave the audiences a huge impact, and the audiences remained the scene with the red color.

Schindler’s List was nominated 12 departments of Academy Awards in 1993 and won 7 departments of Academy Awards in the year such as Academy Award for Best Motion Picture of the Year, Academy Award for Best Picture, Academy Award for Best Motion Picture of the Year, Academy Award for Best Picture, Academy Award for Writing Adapted Screenplay, Academy Award for Film Editing, Academy Award for Best Art Direction, and Academy Award for Original Music Score.

Before Spielberg made Schindler’s List, the movie critics and the essayists commented that Spielberg was just an excellent filmmaker for entertainment, even though he made the movie Empire of the Sun and The Color Purple were serous movies. Empire of the Sun and The Color Purple were not evaluated well. The movie Schindler’s List was for Spielberg to won the first Academy Award for Directing.

My most favorite scene is that Schindler who is the main character realizes something about his wrong. He had the list such as Schindler’s List and cries. He thought that he could help much more Jewish people by his money that he earned. The music in movie is beautiful. Whenever I listen to the music, I think that I should be modesty to others.

If you never have watched the movie Schindler’s List, you should immediately go to the video rental shop near your house. You may realize something about your wrong in your life.
