Schindler's List (22)

I really shouldn't even have to say why Schindler's List is on the top 100, it's so obvious. Liam Neeson, once again, just blows me away! He's such an incredible actor.
Schindler's List is the story of Oskar Schindler, a Nazi who saved more than 1200 Jews from their most certain death at concentration camps by having them work for him instead. It's a true story, and an incredible one at that. I strongly encourage anyone who sees this movie to learn more about Oskar Schindler himself: http://www.oskarschindler.com/
Of course the movie is a tear jerker, how can it not be when you know that this REALLY did happen. Steven Spielberg is a genius, truly he is. The whole part with the little girl in the red coat just kills me. Well, really most parts kill me.
While I'm not Jewish, I really do hope to someday make my way to Jerusalem to pay my respects to Mr. Schindler for being such a selfless hero. His story touches my heart.
Again, it is absolutely no wonder why this movie is a top 100, it really is a remarkable piece of work in every way: acting, directing, writing, historical representation, etc.
If you haven't seen this movie, please do.
