A brilliant way to capture the moment

Rating: 9/10 (8 April 2006)

I have visited Krakow in Poland where the film was mainly made, the atmosphere there was distressing and to be able to capture that equally as emotive through a camera shows genius. I loved the entire film straight through, it promises to draw tears every time without fail. A must see. The film also portrays the sadness of the camps better than being in the camp in person; i have been to auschwitz and berkenau myself. I think Neeson plays schindler excellently, he has the charm to demonstrate the real Schindlers nature with women. I also thought at first that black and white films were not appreciated in the modern age, however, this film shows that black and white can work, you would not get the same effect from the film if it were in colour.
