SHINDLER'S LIST IS A TRUE MASTERPIECE

Set in the Second World War,Schindler's List" is the based-on-truth story of Nazi Czech business man Oskar Schindler who is a brilliant businessman and looking-for - profit type of man uses Jewish labor to start a factory in occupied Poland. As World War II progresses, and the fate of the Jews becomes more and more clear, Schindler's motivations switch from profit to human sympathy and he is able to save over 1100 Jews from death in the gas chambers.With the great vision of Steven Spielberg,an award hunter,Schindler's List wouldn't become any better and the casting wouldn't be any better.Liam Neeson as(Oscar Schindler) Ralph Finnes(Amon Goeth),Ben Kingsley as (Izhak Stern).The movie is 184 minutes long but I did not want it to end.Especially the newest generation must see this film as there are very valuable lessons and great to take from it.The idea of shooting the film in black and white which turns in the end in color mode was Spielberg's great choice as the black and white period represented those black days which were one of the most sickening human tragedy took place and when those days were over and people grew old while they were on the edge of a certain death,it turns the color mode which makes the audience smile.The last scene with the great of Liam Neeson was spectacular and I am sure very few people can resist crying.

SCHINDLER'S LIST IS A TRUE MASTERPIECE

CRASH WILL BECOME A CLASSIC

Crash is a crime-drama film that brings out bigotry and racial stereotypes.Set in Los Angeles,a city with a cultural mix of every nationality.And the story begins with a multi-car accident where several people involved and their actions related to each other and each action has its consequences on the other.I would not imagine any better telling of a issue like racism.All the characters lives depended on each other and the consequences of their actions.I am amazed at the way of interlocking each stories in such a brilliant yet an uncomprimising way.The cross-cutting editing style does not let you guess what is gonna happen next but gives an idea for each character's personality but still no guess how they will behave.Crash, directed by Paul Haggis who won academy award with Million Dollar Baby for screenplay, won Best Motion Picture,Best Editing,Best original screenplay.The cast is unique as well ,with Don Cheadle,Sandra Bullock,Matt Dillon,Thandie Newton,Terrance Howard,Brendan Fraser,Ryan Philipe and so on.It is a must-see film as it is probably a classic-will be.
