By reading over this particular article, you are likely looking to learn a little more about the impressive film, Schindlers List. While there are so many different things that deserve to be mentioned about this movie, some of the most prevalent of these will be mentioned in the article. Apart from the facts associated with this film, you will also have a brief plot synopsis.

For starters, you have to appreciate where this movie is coming from. This is based from the perspective of a German businessman in World War II. He sees an opportunity to exploit the labor of Jews and later has a change of heart and hopes to be able to help them all out of their war torn surroundings and far from the clenching fist of the Nazis.

You might not have known, though, that this film is directly related to the story of a real life person, Oskar Schindler. So many different movies in Hollywood claim to be based on real events, but this just means that some part of the story was relative to a real life event. This movie was the literal retelling of the circumstances surrounding Schindler, and the impact that he had on so many lives.

This vision from Steven Spielberg is not unlike his other masterful creations, which both have the power to inspire while giving the audience something that they have never seen before. For instance, apart from the Wizard of Oz no other movie has gone completely from black and white to a full (present day) color scheme. Certainly not just to demonstrate the difference in time periods anyway.

You can take a look at the tagline for this film to really see the underlying message that it was slated to convey (whoever saves one life, saves the entire world). Oskar Schindler, had saved roughly 1,100 Jewish people from the depraved acts they were going to suffer in Auschwitz, which was one of the worst and most violent concentration camps in existence at the time.

In the film, Schindler begins by trying to set up a factory in Poland to sell medical kits to the German army. He decides to employ Jews, as this is a very cheap approach. When he realizes the error of his ways, he deduces that he is able to save some of them from their concentration camp fate by putting their name on a list that keeps them from heading there by stating that they work too well to be held in the camp or even put to death.

A powerful performance by Liam Neeson brings Oskar Schindler to life. Other supporting roles also made a great impact on the climaxes and drama of the film. Performances from Ben Kingsley as Itzhak Stern and Ralph Fiennes as the rigid German Amon Goeth.

In some of the final black and white scenes from the film, Schindler has a discussion with Itzhak Stern. He tells him through desperation that he could have saved more. He was broke, but he wasted so much money before this and 1100 wasn't good enough. Schindlers List was a reflection on the love for mankind and what a human life is worth. This is a classic, and in the top 100 of countless best of lists in cinema.
