📖 Synopsis
In Nazi-occupied Poland, Oskar Schindler is a German entrepreneur who finds cheap labor among Jewish workers for his factory. As he gradually comprehends the scope of the genocide, Schindler begins to spend his fortune to buy the lives of his employees and save them from the extermination camps. Steven Spielberg adapted Thomas Keneally's novel in 1993 in black and white to create the most viewed and awarded film about the Holocaust in history.
✍️ Our review
9.8/10
★★★★★
Spielberg filmed in black and white so the horror of the Holocaust could not be romanticized. Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, and Ben Kingsley in unforgettable roles. The red coat scene is one of the most powerful in 20th-century cinema.
