Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 186 Jewish Power
Early morning, Fairmont Hotel, San Francisco.

Aaron Anderson wakes up refreshed with his arms around Jennifer Connelly!

After taking a shower, Aaron stood by the window, stretched, looked at the Pacific Ocean in the distance, and felt refreshed.

"Are you awake so early, dear?"

Jennifer Connelly, sleepy-eyed, climbed out of bed and hugged the man from behind.

Feeling the other person's softness, Aaron smiled and patted the girl, "Why, are you hungry?"

"I'm fine. Aren't you hungry?" Jennifer Connelly asked with a smile.

Are you hungry?" Aaron smiled and carried the girl back to the bed.

In Hollywood, the reputation of "Schindler's List" is rapidly growing!
Schindler's List recreates the Nazi Holocaust against the Jews during World War II, showing one of the darkest periods in human history.

The film triggered a deep reflection among the audience on issues such as war and racial discrimination. The protagonist Schindler was faced with the choice of saving his factory or saving the lives and rights of the Jews.

In the end, Schindler chose the latter, which showed his respect and protection for the value of human life, and also expressed his belief in the kindness and justice of human nature.

Schindler's List returns emotions to the audience through objective stories, 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 fragments and has profound practical significance!
For example, the film's depiction of the tragedy of the Holocaust during World War II is based primarily on the chronological order of historical events. Within an open narrative structure, the fragments are combined according to the original action relationships and temporal and spatial relationships of the objects, naturally eliminating their contradictions and conflicts, and making the fragments have no necessary causal relationship.

This makes it no longer like a movie, but rather presents it from the perspective of the real experiences of witnesses or victims. For example, the Nazis' brutal killing of Jews was presented by selecting groups or individuals to be shot again and again.

At the same time, Schindler's List uses two main narrative clues to unfold the main war part:

The first is the story of the protagonist Schindler, who gradually transformed from a profit-seeking, greedy and lustful Nazi businessman into a Jewish savior.

Another main line is the narrative line of the Jews, a vulnerable group during the war, in which we can see the massacre and cruelty of the Jews by the Nazis!
These two main narrative lines sometimes run parallel and sometimes intersect, for example, the protagonist Schindler’s early years of wealth and greed;

The two narrative lines intersect constantly, as the protagonist Schindler maneuvers among the upper classes on behalf of the Jews, and the miserable lives of the Jews who originally came from good families.

In this way, the audience can understand the development of events, and the rhythm of the film can be accelerated, avoiding lengthy and unnecessary narrative plots!
As Aaron Anderson and Jennifer Connelly vacationed in Las Vegas, Schindler's List was taking critics by storm:

In terms of visual effects, Schindler's List uses gray and dark backgrounds as its main tone, 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, in the end, the little girl in the red dress was particularly conspicuous among the piles of corpses!

The vitality represented by the little girl in red and the red skirt was eventually swallowed up 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 set off the atmosphere and uses colored filters to darken the color of the sky, which well reflects the scene after the burning of the corpse; naturally rendering a dark and depressing atmosphere, and finally using light and shadow to give people a visual impact, stimulating people's inner emotions.

With the release of Schindler's List, word-of-mouth has become increasingly popular, and the praise from critics and the media has become increasingly high:

Los Angeles Times: "The film 'Schindler's List' is not, and should not be, used to express hatred against a specific ethnic group, even the Germans, the perpetrators of violence in the film;"

"If you interpret the film's theme as ethnic hatred, you're misinterpreting the issue. As for the future of humanity, many things transcend national boundaries. We are all part of the same human community, and we should work together to prevent similar tragedies from happening again."

The Washington Post: "Schindler's List captured the world's attention with just a dozen printed pages."

"Schindler's List has received strong praise from film critics;"

"Of course, more importantly, the film Schindler's List also promoted the establishment of the Jewish Holocaust Fund. Since the release of Schindler's List, the Jewish Holocaust Fund has now collected nearly 5200 memorial videotapes and photos of Holocaust survivors;"

“And these videotapes and photos that are distributed around the world, they were once distributed to educational institutions around the world;”

"Schindler's List has profound significance for the great Hollywood director Steven Spielberg!"

Now, for the great director Steven Spielberg, Schindler's List is his most important work;
The impact of this film goes far beyond its aesthetic value!
The whole film tells the story of the Holocaust of Jews during World War II, while emphasizing individual responsibility and calling for peace and humanitarianism.

Some newspaper reviews may be motivated by political sentiment and bias rather than an objective assessment of the film itself;

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

The movie "Schindler's List" has become one of the most watched films in the world. Its seriousness of thought and extraordinary artistic expression have reached a depth that is almost impossible to surpass.

The film Schindler's List depicts the mass murder of Jews during World War II.

Although there have been many films of this kind in the past, this is the first true story film about the awakening of German conscience and their willingness to risk their lives to rebel against the Nazis and rescue Jews.
In this film, Schindler was not a hero at the beginning. Why did he become a hero in the end? The film did not explain.

The movie only shows his behavior, and director Spielberg just used a small symbolic effect to complement it!

As Aaron and Jennifer Connelly head to Las Vegas, Schindler's List continues to spread its popularity.
