“Schindler’s List,” directed by Steven Spielberg and released in 1993, is a profoundly impactful and masterfully crafted historical drama that recounts the harrowing true story of Oskar Schindler, a German industrialist who saved the lives of over a thousand Polish Jews during the Holocaust.
The film is based on the novel “Schindler’s Ark” by Thomas Keneally and stars Liam Neeson as Oskar Schindler, whose transformation from a profit-driven businessman to a selfless humanitarian forms the heart of the narrative. Neeson’s performance is both powerful and nuanced, capturing the complexity of Schindler’s character as he evolves from indifference to deep moral conviction.
