Hollywood starts with a broker

Early morning, Fairmont Hotel, San Francisco.

A refreshed Aaron Anderson woke up embracing Jennifer Connelly!

After showering, Aaron stood by the window, stretched, and gazed at the distant Pacific Ocean, feeling invigorated.

"Honey, are you up so early?"

A sleepy-eyed Jennifer Connelly got out of bed and hugged the man from behind.

Feeling her softness, Aaron smiled and patted the girl, "What's wrong, are you hungry?"

"Not really, are you hungry?" Jennifer Connelly asked with a smile.

"Are you hungry?" Aaron smiled, hugging the girl as he returned to the bed.

In Hollywood, the word-of-mouth for "Schindler's List" was rapidly growing!

"Schindler's List" recreates the Nazi's massacre of Jews during World War II, showcasing one of the darkest periods in human history.

It sparked deep reflections among viewers on issues such as war and racial discrimination. The protagonist, Schindler, faced the choice of saving his factory or saving the lives and rights of the Jews.

Ultimately, Schindler chose the latter, demonstrating his respect for the value of human life and his commitment to upholding goodness and justice in humanity.

"Schindler's List" returns the emotions to the audience through an objective story, allowing the audience to experience and judge the authenticity of the story for themselves.

Therefore, the narrative of the movie "Schindler's List" is a natural extension of real-life segments, with profound real-world significance!

For example, the film's description of the Holocaust tragedy during World War II is mainly based on the chronological order of historical events. In the open narrative structure, segments are combined according to the original action relationships and spatial-temporal relationships of the objects, naturally eliminating their contradictions and conflicts, so that there is no inevitable causal relationship between the segments.

This makes it less like a movie and more like a depiction from the perspective of a witness or a survivor's real experience. For example, the Nazis' cruel killing of Jews is shown through groups or individuals being repeatedly selected for execution.

At the same time, "Schindler's List" unfolds in the main war section using two main narrative threads:

One is the story of the protagonist, Schindler, who gradually transforms from a profit-seeking, greedy, and lustful Nazi businessman into a savior figure for the Jews.

The other main thread is the narrative of the disadvantaged group, the Jews, during the war, where we can see the Nazi's massacre and cruelty towards the Jews!

These two main narrative threads sometimes run parallel, sometimes intersecting. For example, the protagonist Schindler's early wealth and greed;

And the tragic lives of Jews who originally came from good families. When the protagonist Schindler is lobbying among the upper class for the sake of the Jews, these two narrative threads constantly intersect.

In this way, the audience can understand the development process of the events and accelerate the rhythm of the film, avoiding lengthy and unnecessary narrative plots!

When Aaron Anderson and Jennifer Connelly arrived in Las Vegas for vacation, "Schindler's List" was sweeping across film critics:

In terms of visual effects, "Schindler's List" mainly uses a grayscale, dim background, but the bright, warm colors that appear in the film do not seem abrupt or inconsistent.

For example, before the massacre, although the little girl in the play successfully escaped, the little girl in the red dress was particularly conspicuous in the pile of bones!

The little girl in the red dress and the red dress represent vitality, which is eventually swallowed by darkness.

At the same time, the contrast between light and dark is exaggerated in the film's lighting and many scenes. The director uses the contrast of light to create the atmosphere, using colored filters to darken the color of the sky, which effectively reflects the scene after the burning of the corpses.

It naturally creates a dark and oppressive atmosphere, and ultimately uses light and shadow to give people a visual impact, stimulating people's inner emotions.

As "Schindler's List" was released, the word-of-mouth became more and more obvious, and the praise from film critics and the media became more and more enthusiastic:

Los Angeles Times: "The movie 'Schindler's List' is not, and should not be, used to express hateful emotions towards a specific ethnic group, even the perpetrators in the film—the German nation;"

"If the theme of the film is seen as ethnic hatred, then the question is misunderstood. For the future of mankind, there are many things that have long transcended the boundaries between nations. We are all members of the same human society and should jointly prevent similar tragedies from happening again."

The Washington Post: "The movie 'Schindler's List' can attract worldwide attention with just a dozen printed papers;"

"'Schindler's List' has exploded with strong praise under the halo of various film critics;"

"Of course, more importantly, the movie 'Schindler's List' also promoted the establishment of the Jewish Holocaust Foundation. Since the release of 'Schindler's List', the Jewish Holocaust Foundation has collected nearly 5,200 memorial videotapes and photos of Holocaust survivors;"

"And these videotapes and photos, distributed all over the world, were once distributed in educational institutions all over the world;"

"'Schindler's List' has profound significance in the mind of Hollywood director Steven Spielberg!"

Now, for director Steven Spielberg, "Schindler's List" is his most important work;

The impact of this film far exceeds its aesthetic value!

The entire film tells the story of the massacre of Jews during World War II, while emphasizing individual responsibility and calling for peace and humanitarianism.

Every word, every line, every detail!

Some newspaper reviews may be based on political emotions and biases, rather than an objective evaluation of the film itself;

When facing social and political issues, one should remain rational, focus on the value and right and wrong of the artwork itself, rather than using it as a tool for political positions!

The movie "Schindler's List" has become one of the most watched films in the world, and its ideological seriousness and extraordinary artistic expression have reached an almost insurmountable depth.

The movie "Schindler's List" depicts the collective massacre of Jews during World War II:

Although many films of this kind have been made in the past, this is the first true story film about the awakening of the conscience of the Germans who risked their lives to rebel against the Nazis and rescue the Jews.

In this film, Schindler was not a hero at the beginning. Why did he become a hero in the end? The film does not provide an answer?

The film only shows his behavior, and director Spielberg only used a small, symbolic effect as a foil!

While Aaron and Jennifer Connelly were on their way to Las Vegas, "Schindler's List" continued to spread its popularity.
