Movie Review

Schindler’s List

Rating **** Director: Steven Spielberg

Starring: Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley, Ralph Fiennes, Caroline Gooddall, Jonathan Sagalle, Embeth Davidtz, Malgoscha Gegel, Shmulik Levy, Mark Ivanir, Beatrice Macola

Staggering adaptation of Tomas Kenally’s best-seller about the real-life Catholic war profiteer who initially flourished by sucking up to the Nazis, but eventually went broke saving the lives of more than 1,000 by employing them in his factory, manufacturing for the German army. Filmed almost entirely on location in Poland, in gritty b&w, but with a pace to match the most frenzied Spielberg works, this looks and feels nothing Hollywood has ever made before. The three central characters rate – and receive – unforgettable performances: Neeson, who’s towering as Kingsley, superb as his Jewish accountant (and conscience); and Fiennes, who’s frightening as the odious. Outstanding screenplay by Steven Zaillian and by Janusz Kaminsky. Spielberg’s most intense and personal film to date. Seven include Best Picture, Director, Adapted Screenplay, and Original Score (John Williams).
