What makes Amon so sadistic is he was planning to kill him from the beginning but wants to play with the worker's emotions first before doing so, like it's a fun game for him. First by implying the worker is pretty much doing an interview for his life and if he makes a good hinge quickly, he will be spared. And then even giving him couragement and false hope by telling him he's doing a good job.

The rabbi was the character I sympathised with the most. That whole moment must've been unbearably traumatising and tough to the point you'd almost perversely want to die once you're spared to prevent it happening again... once Oskar listed him, the way he said "thank you direktor" as if he'd been given a raise at work, and not just his life back to him and a bit more protection.... his face in that scene was utterly heartbreaking. Was so wholesome and sweet and grateful. The way, wherever you see him he takes his cap off to talk, and puts back on to work... such manners, for obvious reasons, but still. This character really stuck with me..

There are two times in the movie where you can see Amon having a mental struggle with what he's doing in the moment. The first is any scene with Helen. The second time is here. When he can just take out a pistol and shoot someone, he can keep them not human. But you can see, as the Rabbi is talking Amon is getting not mad, but mentally rattled. His eyes start blinking rabidly. He looks away at the other two soldiers. His breathing gets faster. In that moment, he sees him as human and it makes him furious. That's why he didn't have him killed when he finally hit him with the pistol. He could have. The other soldiers had pistols too. They would have worked. But by then he just couldn't and had to walk away, furious that he allowed himself to get rattled, and even more furious with himself that he was letting the rabbi live.

I don't think it was a moment of humanity as much as it was childish frustration that he didn't get what he wanted. He lived for that moment of feeling power over somebody powerless, and suddenly he got blueballed by circumstance. He was flustered because he had lost control of the situation and there was nothing he could do about it. He could take one of the other guns and use them, but not only would it make him feel like he needed somebody else's help, but killing him at that point would make him seem petty.

Ralph Fiennes was a class act in this film.Indeed, any film he acted in.kudos to all in this. History to be remembered

Fienne's snaps because it exposes the facade, laying bare just how evil they, and especially he, are. The frustration and then the Rabbi explaining he was taken off the job that morning.

There are so many nuances in this film. The moment Goeth mentions the amount of hinges, Levartow knows his faith is sealed; there is no point in making excuses as it's already been decided he's to be shot. Only when Goeth is thrown off by the malfunctioning pistol is there a chance of changing his mind, from execution to frustrated assault; and Levratow does so by providing a reason for the low production numbers.

There was a production mistake in this scene: the second weapon with which he tries to shoot is clearly a pistol. When he gives up, and gives the gun away to the other officer, that is a revolver.

Everything is on point with this movie , the howl of the train while he is escorted out is down right chilling

Fun fact: the gun he drops walking away is a revolver. Even though a second ago he was holding a semi automatic pistol.

Fun fact : The Holohoax was just thst

I imagine if they had found out then that he was a Rabbi, they’d find a third gun that worked.

That's extremely accurate with the Opel Blitz - military transport truck. This is an exceptional and heavy film. I was always pissed at my father for taking me to see it in theaters when I was 10

The second gun Goeth uses seems to be a Sauer double-action pistol. But after it fails and the scene cuts to him dropping the gun, it turns into a revolver of some sort. Interesting movie mistake.

Ralph Fiennes was so convincing that some actual survivors started to shake when they saw him in his Nazi uniform

Actually there are three guns in this scene. The first semi-auto that didn't work, the second semi-auto that didn't work , and the revolver ( for the life of me I don't know how a film maker like Spielberg didn't catch that that glaring continuity fail ) that he dropped at the end of the scene.

Yeah, yep. That was my take-away from this scene, as well. Not the representation of the atrocities committed in the camps, not the great, harrowing performances, not chilling lines like "I need to make room", but a gun continuity error.

​@@Jennyfischit is an error, so obviously people can point it out.

The most deeply unsettling part for me is how matter-of-fact are these guards while discussing possible causes of the guns' malfunctions. To them it is nothing but a daily trifle. Had the gun fired - they would probably forget about another human being they murdered in a matter of minutes.

If they could get away with it, I believe most companies these days would attempt this exact same thing. It'd be cheaper than having to pay unemployment.

If you notice, there's a prop mistake where he has a 9mm initially in the scene, drops the gun, and in this shot it's a revolver

This must never happen again. And yet we have politicians around the world who choose to act as though their souls were expired, and everyone in their way as dogs for kicking. Bravo Ralph Feinnes. chills. every time chills.

I mean I can see the one lugar not working, the early lugars were somewhat unreliable from what I understand. But it really pulls me out of the immersion when the second pistol also won't fire. The odds of that are just astronomical. Highly unlikely.

Any firearm aficionados here who also want to know where the bullets go as he racks the gun/pulls the trigger half a dozen times yet they don't fall to the ground? Dude had an empty magazine...

KZread erased my comment haha. But you’re right when he racks it back, a round should fall. So this is an error in the film . But typically the explosion caused by the powder is what causes an automatic ejection of the round .

It's odd to me that Saving Private Ryan has so many details that you chance missing any if you take the time to blink, and then there's this scene in SL. The acting is so good that it's easy to miss, but if you know anything about firearms it looks like the Nazis simply don't realize that the pistols aren't loaded. Each time after the initial racking of the firearms a single intact cartridge should have been ejected. At the end of the scene there should have been 10+ unspent rounds on the ground. I feel like adding this detail would have made it more powerful. Each bullet representing a divine intervention on behalf of the rabbi. But instead I see incompetent Nazis.

The other two officers casually testing the gun while point it at the head of the rabbi... It would be almost funny if it weren't chilling.

This scene was so chilling. Imagine the kind of person that not only kills people without a second thought but is more annoyed at his weapon malfunctioning. (Which by the way, is a 1/1000000 chance occurrence with German weaponry and was more than likely a problem with the magazine seeing as how no rounds ejected from the slide. Thank god for that) In my opinion this movie is Spielbergs magnum opus! A brutal, sad, yet touching and hopeful story that shows humanity in all facets for good or ill. It makes me so grateful that I didn’t have to live through such or horrific time.

@@HomeschoolVouchers Blanks are still 100% lethal at close range, the force produced by the gas expulsion from the barrel can crack someones skull. It's how Bruce Lee's son died. The reason it didn't work was contrary to the OP's claim that German weapons were somehow infallible, that's a myth/lie perpetuate by the Nazis to make themselves seem stronger than they were. The truth is that German materials made in the 1940s were pieces of shit, they were having to use lower quality materials for construction due to supply shortages. And the designs themselves were often heavily flawed, like the so called "King Tiger" whose most lethal opponent was it's own gear box.

Amon Goeth scares da living daylights outta me!!! 😱😱

This scene just breaks my heart. The poor man 😢😢

It was actually 3 pistols not 2, at the end of the clip you can also see a revolver that didn’t fire as well, when Amon walks off he tries his revolver as well and when it doesn’t work he throws it on the ground.

I looked closely, and I think it might be a bad cut or a continuity error. If you look at it, it turns from a semi-auto pistol from before it cuts to him walking away, to the revolver when the scene cuts to the shot of him walking away. So, it's still 2 guns, not 3.
