Best movie ever made

Rating: 10/10 (11 September 2003)

I cannot imagine how anyone would not like this movie, unless it is for political reasons. The three main actors gave the performances of their careers, which is an amazing feat considering their body of work before and after. Liam Neeson as Schindler undergoes a transformation which was powerful. Ben Kingsley's performance was subtle. Had it been anything else, the movie would have been diminished. And Ralph Fiennes was wonderful as an evil man who became bored with evil, yet knew no other way to act. I am glad Spielberg never won an Oscar until Schindler, the lack of one may have spurred him on to this magnificent piece of history. Lest we forget.
