Schindler's List

Steven Spielberg's multi-Oscar-winning account of one man's struggle to save the Jews in his employment from the Nazi death camps returns to the big screen to coincide with the film's 25th anniversary. Based on the novel by Thomas Keneally and shot almost entirely in black and white, Schindler's List centres on factory owner Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson), who uses his connections within the Nazi party to secure factory premises. Aided by Itzhak Stern (Sir Ben Kingsley), Schindler hires Jews in his factory because they cost less. He subsequently witnesses a massacre ordered by SS officer Amon Goth (Ralph Fiennes) and the businessman is deeply affected by the haunting image of lifeless young girl in a red coat. Schindler uses his money to bribe Goth and other SS guards in the hope that he can save his Jewish workforce from Auschwitz.
