SCHINDLER'S LIST (1993) - May 27, 2008
A very long but well made film about a German who, during the war, opens a factory and eventually winds up saving hundreds of Jews from the concentration camps. It was slow, and probably too long at well over three hours, but it was certainly never boring. The performances were all exceptional, particularly Liam Neeson and Ralph Fiennes. Spielberg's direction was also quite good. And -- I never thought I'd say it -- Janusz Kaminski's cinematography was excellent. The stark, high contrast black and white suits the film perfectly; this is easily the best looking Spielberg/Kaminski collaboration. ***
