"This list represents the highest good, and this list is life, The periphery of the list is a terrible abyss."
The movie "Schindler's List" is a classic film in the history of world cinema, from the great director Spielberg. Schindler, who touched countless people, saved 1100 Jews, and Schindler will be remembered forever.
"Schindler's List" is about the German Oscar during World War II. The story of Delek saving Jews in World War II. In 1939, Germany attacked Poland, which took only 2 weeks to break through. So the German officers began a massive massacre of Jews, the method of which was cruel and could not bear to look at it directly. Based on a true story, the film can be said to be a documentary documenting the massacre of Germans, and the Nazi Party led by Hitler during World War II was forever nailed to the column of shame in history.

As the male protagonist of the film, Schindler presents us with the process of Schindler's continuous awakening of human nature. At first, he was just a businessman who wanted to get rich, and Schindler was good at socializing and left and right. He swindled a large sum of money from the Jews to buy gifts for German officers in order to gain more of the arms business. Schindler's greed and hypocrisy at first ended up crying because he felt he had saved too few Jews, muttering, "How long can I be alone, but I'm not... I didn't". The strong contrast between the front and back makes Schindler's character more prominent.
The Jewish population, which accounts for only 0.3 percent of the world's population, receives one-fifth of the world's Nobel Prizes. It can be seen what a smart and creative people this is, and the great director Spielberg is also Jewish.
In the film, we can see that German officers are killing Jews in all kinds of cruel means all the time. We can see the strength, bravery and kindness of the Jews in desperate circumstances. When the German officers were about to shoot the Jews who didn't look very healthy, the clever Jewish woman bit her finger and smeared blood on her face to make herself even more bloody. In the film, the Jews are always on the verge of life and death, and when they face death, they have a great desire to survive.
When Amun was preparing to burn a large number of Jews, and when German officers took them into concentration camps to work as laborers, they never gave up hope of life. Just as drowning people must save themselves, the Jewish people have always suffered all kinds of suffering, and they have always been in a state of self-help and salvation.
After the Germans occupied Poland, they enslaved the Jews, and they held celebration receptions all day long, but what appeared in the staggering of chips was a void. The Germans imprisoned all the Jews in the besieged city of Klaasto, and those who could work could come out to serve as cheap labor, and those who had no labor force had to wait for death. Schindler saw this opportunity to make a fortune and could hire a large wave of Jews to work for him for very little money.
Schindler was not only greedy for money but also a lustful man, having an affair behind his wife's back, and when he chose Jews to work in the factory, he chose only beautiful women. Although Schindler eventually saved so many Jews, he was not a perfect saint or a good man in the strict sense of the word. He only evoked a touch of conscience in the hearts of ordinary people after witnessing the massacre of Jews, he was an ordinary person, but he was not ordinary.
Schindler
The tone of the entire film is black and white, until the appearance of the little girl in red. The little girl first appeared at a time when the Jews were being slaughtered on a large scale, and the little girl roamed freely through the crowd, but was lucky enough to dodge the shooting. The little girl was dressed in red, but the red was destined not to be bright in that environment, but only a faint light that flashed in the darkness of the darkness, and then extinguished again.
The little girl in red, who represented hope, was seen by Schindler, and from there, Schindler began to change, his inner conscience was waking up little by little, and the good side of human nature began to show.
Schindler began to rescue the Jews, and a Jewish woman begged Schindler to bring his parents to the factory, even if it might cause trouble for himself, because the law at that time made it illegal to rescue the Jews, and he did not hesitate to spend a lot of money to buy Jews from German officers and build a factory next to Amun's labor camp, so that more Jews would not die under the guns of the Germans.
Schindler saved the lives of 1,100 Jews, and finally regretted why he no longer tried to save two more people. Selling your car might save a few more people from the Germans.
Saving a person is equivalent to saving the whole world, in such a cruel war, in addition to the blood everywhere is red, the little girl's clothes are red, Schindler's human beauty is also red, and the human beauty that bursts out of the darkness is even more precious.
Officer Amun took pleasure in torturing the Jews, and Schindler patiently admonished him. Although the power of one person is small, if it were not for people like Schindler who took the initiative to stand up and save the Jews in the Holocaust, more lives would have died in the war. After the Holocaust of the Nazis in World War II, only a few thousand Jews remained, and more than a thousand were Jews in Schindler's factory.
If Schindler was the best being of human nature, then Amun was a Nazi officer with good thoughts. Schindler said, "If Amun had not been born in the war era, he would not have been so vicious, and would have been a little bully at best." Amun's subconscious had been deeply poisoned by Nazi thought. "Jews are hateful, they are despicable, I killed him a few nothing", in fact, from many places in the film we can see the Hatred of Jews by Germans at that time, even young boys who were a few years old wanted to kill Jews, which shows that their hatred of Jews has been deeply rooted.
Amun was also such a man, who was always torn between good and evil, and occasionally saw a little kindness in him. But in the end, the little kindness that remains in the heart will be wiped out by the little demon. Amun is such a contradiction, but it is precisely because of Amun's undetermined humanity that this character is not unforgivable.
Amun fell in love with helen, a Jewish woman. This was something he had never thought of, so he was very reluctant to admit it, but the truest feelings in his heart made it impossible for him to suppress his love for Helen. The basement confession fully shows the contradictions that exist in Amon, and he likes Helen but can't confess.
After a long night of talking with Schindler, Amun's heart changed slightly, and he decided to forgive the Jewish boy, but killed him in an instant. What a contradictory man! Schindler exhorted Amun to try to forgive the Jews, but for many years his hatred of the Jews could not be easily changed, and with a little compassion, he felt that the Jews should not be forgiven on what basis I had to forgive them.
Of course, there are more than one German like Amon, and most Germans hate Jews so much that there are very few people like Schindler who can arouse their conscience after seeing the tragic situation of the Jews being shot, which is also the greatness of Oscar Schindler. Many bad people actually have a good heart, but most people lack the courage to change, and they can change overnight in such an environment for many years. Being a ruthless person like Amun is already the norm, and it takes courage to step out of your comfort zone.
From Schindler, a greedy businessman who wanted to use Jews to make a fortune, to Schindler, who later lost his family for Jews. In the film we witness Schindler's transformation and witness the process of his human awakening. In an environment where the whole nation hated Jews and wantonly slaughtered Jews, Schindler was willing to stand up and risk breaking the law and single-handedly saved 1100 Jews.
Although this number may not seem like much, in the end Germany was defeated, and there were only a few thousand Jews left, 1100 of whom were Jews in Schindler's factory. Stern told him, "Generations will remember what you did," Schindler, and in the end Schindler is still repenting, hating why he didn't save more people.
As the saying goes, "good people have good rewards", but in the end Schindler did not get "good rewards", and finally the Jews were liberated, and Schindler was arrested for smuggling arms. The Jews made him a ring with the inscription "To save one man is to save the whole world." Schindler used the Jews for profit, and later saved them purely because of his unbroken conscience. Schindler ended up destitute because he saved the Jews, and such a good man did not have a perfect ending.
This reminds me of the domestic movie "I am not a medicine god" Protagonist Cheng Yong first sold generic drugs just to make money, but selling generic drugs is illegal, and then Cheng Yong bought for patients again just because of sympathy for patients who have no medicine to eat, just because of a kind heart. Cheng Yong was eventually sentenced for selling generic drugs, but thousands of patients he had treated came to send him.
Schindler was eventually arrested, and thousands of Jews spontaneously sent him. At the end of the film, countless Jews bring their descendants to Schindler's tomb and offer him flowers. They have not forgotten nor will they forget Schindler, who once saved them from death.
"Dream Quest" said that "the real death is no one in the world to remember you anymore", Schindler's story was made into a film on the big screen, not only the Jews who were once saved by him will always remember him, thousands of viewers will always remember him, Schindler is immortal!
