Starring: Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, Ben Kingsley, Caroline Goodall
Continuity mistake: Amon Goeth pulls out a German Luger to shoot the rabbi. The Luger jams so Goeth pulls out another pistol and pulls the slide back indicating a semi-auto handgun. The second also fails. Goeth gets frustrated and throws the gun on the ground. When the other Nazi picks it up, it's magically a revolver. (01:28:05)
Oskar Schindler: They won't soon forget the name "Oskar Schindler" around here."Oskar Schindler, " they'll say, "everybody remembers him. He did something extraordinary. He did what no one else did. He came with nothing, a suitcase, and built a bankrupt company into a major manufactory. And left with a steamer trunk, two steamer trunks, of money. All the riches of the world."
Trivia: This movie took in only $3 million on its opening weekend, but went on to earn more than $320 million world-wide.
Question: Moments before the end of the film, a man puts a rose on Schindler's grave. Can someone tell me who he is?
Answer: Liam Neeson, the actor who played Schindler.
Correction: Many of the men would not be circumcised because a lot of their families were not practising Jews and were only deemed to be Jewish by the Nazis even if only one grandparent was Jewish. In addition, there weren't only Jews in the camps, but Gypsies, POWs, homosexuals, political dissidents, and other "undesirables."
Yet it is true that not only Jews were in camps; only they used the David star in their clothes, and in the scene, it is noticeable it is stitched to the clothes they were carrying. So the scene intended to depict Jewish people. Regarding the other real historical reasons presented to explain why being Jewish, they were not circumcised, I have no idea what percentage of them would apply and what the chance of it would be in a randomly chosen scene. Or even if that was intentionally considered in the movie.
