As you would have probably guessed by now im a history fanatic and a huge movie fan too! Now what if I had the pleasure of having a mixture of the two?.. Heaven!!!
A while back at univeristy, I watched a movie called “Schilnder’s List” for an English class and the movie was about the holocaust that occurred to the Jews in Germany during the Nazis era around 1939. That time was one of the most horrifying times in histoy, a pin point that will remain visable in the world’s historical records either told in books or captured by film which is how I was introduced to it.
Schidler’s List was directed by the one and only Steven Spileberg and starting Liam Neeson as Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who saved the lives of more than a thousand Polish Jewish refugees during the Holocaust by employing them in his factories. (Based on a true story)
This part of history is not only adopted by this film, many stories brought up hints about these events. It's funny how this storyline reminded me of, a cartoon called (La7n al7yah) which translates to: The sound of Music, which is cartoon was depicting. I remember at the final episodes of this cartoon, the Nazis were taking over Europe. As a viewer, you can see clearly how people/characters were terrifed by the ways of the Nazis who eventually became a part of today's pop culture as a sign of racism and prejudice.
The movie was excellent yet a little hard on the eyes as it displayed forms of tourture that took place in Auschwitz concentration camp. It was considered a box office hit, taking home 7 Academy Awards so it would be a good idea to give it a view :)
If you decide to watch it pls share your thoughts, I'd love to hear from you!
