Rating: 2/10 (27 July 2006)

This interesting story is based on largely unsubstantiated anecdotes. Unfortunately, there is little or no documentation for the events which are portrayed in this sort of "Docudrama".
That a Schindler existed is verifiable, but beyond that the film takes huge liberties with the few known facts. It is in fact, a "Fabricated History", and has a propagandistic purpose. The novel and film based on it are entertaining , and Spielberg is a skillful entrepreneur, but the dark side of it was that it was more than likely undertaken by Spielberg as an attempt to exploit the sufferings of victims of the war for his own profit, and as a part of his continuing evident agenda of retribution against WWll enemies of three-quarter of a century ago. The perpetuation of hatred is not a noble purpose
