Film Lesson: "Schindler's List"
Schindler's List, in my opinion, illustrated the Holocaust in a dramatic way that showed fully how horrible the Holocaust was. For me, the most powerful scene in the movie was when you see the dead body of the little girl in red being carried away, it made me feel sad for all the children that were killed. Another powerful scene was when the little boy was looking for a place to hide, and literally every place was taken, it goes to show just how many people were victims of the Holocaust. I think Schindler's List was the more powerful film. It really showed how sick and indifferent the Nazi's were to the Jewish people.
Film Lesson: "Night and Fog"
"Night and Fog" is a documentary about the Holocaust that shows some of the atrocities that happened there. The movie both creeped me out and saddened me, like how they showed that the Germans used the remains of dead people to make things like soap, wigs, blankets, and paper. I think that Schindlers List better illustrated the Holocaust. Schindlers List showed the chaos and the violence better than the documentary, although they both showed the horrors that took place during the Holocaust.
