Schindler's List | 100 Movies Bucket List

 

Next up for the bucket list was a first time watch.

I'd heard of this film before but I'd never really looked into what it was about or had any desire to watch it.

It was one of the most intimidating ones on the list, which is probably why I didn't watch it sooner. But once I knew what it was about I was really interested in it.

And thankfully, it wasn't as intimidating as I thought it would be.

The story is an incredible one, and I didn't know it was true until I was sitting down to watch the film.

Everything about it is really well done - the direction, the writing, the acting, not only does it feel authentic, but it feels like everyone involved was really passionate about the story.

It was really thought-provoking to watch this after seeing 'The Pianist' and looking at two stories set in similar times and circumstances through different points of view.

It's not an easy watch, but it's definitely worth seeing. I'm really glad it was on the list because I might not have watched it otherwise.
