Spielberg’s ‘List’
I am disappointed. Rather than make a film about the thousands of Poles who risked their lives and those of their families to save Jews during World War II, Steven Spielberg chooses to tell the story of a wealthy German entrepreneur who went to Poland on the coattails of Hitler’s Nazi juggernaut to further exploit the Polish nation.
That Schindler’s conscience was finally moved to the point that he took it upon himself to save people’s lives is commendable and for that matter courageous.
What would have been more courageous would have been for him to have stayed at home and helped defeat Hitler there.
