His choice of a universal back-drop for mise en scene of monochrome‚ with color only appearing in the bookends‚ the ghetto massacre‚ and the exhumation and incineration of the murdered Jew’s is brilliant and carries significant impact in the film.

This essay’s purpose is to review Schindler’s List but I would like to use The Wannsee Protocol‚ a vastly different kind of film‚ as a kind of foil to set off the cinematic techniques used in Schindler’s List. Spielberg’s film is something that might be called a panoramic view of the Holocaust. In it we see how the lives of thousands

Schindler’s List Reaction Paper Schindler’s List has been argued as Steven Spielberg’s greatest film. The truth is that this movie was Spielberg’s masterpiece as a director. I have seen Schindler’s List three times to date‚ and every time I watch it‚ it gets better. The movie itself is in majority a sad one‚ I like to think of myself as an optimist and even when I am watching the movie it is hard to find the good hidden amongst the bad. This movie is not just a movie‚ but also a documentary delving
