Schindler's list - a brave movie

This movie was aired on HBO early morning few days back and I got the privilege to see it. Schindler's list takes us through the suffering of Jews during World War and also depicts the brutality on them by the Nazi Soldiers. Just imagine that approximately 6 million Jews were masaccered in Poland at that time!!! Amidst this chaos, Oskar Schindler saves around 1000 Jews (true story)- you need to see the movie to find out more. No doubt that this movie, directed by Steven Spielberg, will be one of the best history movies; it even managed to take home 7 Oscar Awards. I don't think anyone else could have this directed this movie better.

This movie also shows us the mirror towards the past - how man can be the biggest enemy of himself and how ruthless and cruel can one be to others.

There was no one to save these innocent people (which included many women and children) and no one even bothered to raise a voice against this mass killing. I was terribly moved by this movie and it also reminded how lucky I am to live safe with all basic amenities.
