SCHINDLE'RS LIST

Written by Lee King

The holocaust of WWII has been the backdrop of many a great movie, but there has never been one that looked at it quite like Schindler’s List ($17). In war torn Poland, Oskar Schindler becomes increasingly concerned for his Jewish workforce after seeing for himself how they are being persecuted by the Nazis. He uses his contacts, and a lot of bribery, to ensure that he keeps Jews on his employment list and thus saves them from the horror of the gas chambers. Directed by Steven Spielberg and boasting outstanding performances from Liam Neeson, Ben Kingsley and Ralph Fiennes, it is Liam Neeson and supporting actor for Fiennes.
