I am a German living about 150km from Bergen Belsen and visited the Camp multiple times. I stood in front of the remains of the huts with tens of thousands of corpses under it. My Grandfather on my fathers side was a member of the SS. Neighbors of my grandparents „disappeared“ in the 1940 and my mother remembers that. I personally knew two Holocaust survivors (who passed a few years ago). So I am as close to what happened in the Nazi time than anybody who was born long after the war. I read some of the antisemitic comments below and feel SO proud that I raise my children as upright, honorable people who despise racism and discrimination. I am not responsible for the Holocaust. But I am very responsible that this kind of history does not repeats itself. Not on my watch.

Such a beautiful statement. It's not easy to keep our hearts open like that.

I went to the Portuguese premiere of this movie. I don't think we "tolerated" as Spielberg put it... I think we knew we had to take it all in, despite the sheer human violence depicted. I think we knew this would be a pivotal moment in all of our lives. It was learning. Educating ourselves. It's a necessary movie. It's a memorial. It was the first time I'd seen an ENTIRE theater not clapping at the end and instead crying our eyes out. We stayed to the very end of the credits. We left in tears... quietly...

We were shown "Schindler's List" in our auditorium in high school. I remember watching this and having a feeling overcome me. Something in me was moved that day. Way before that age I had already developed empathy, it was something else. I think it was the notion that, as human beings, we have an obligation to be the voice for others. And, that I must never hesitate to stand up to injustices.....even if I am the only one.

Or the Japanese camps in Manchuria or the POW camps? Shall we watch films about the many battle fronts? The Jews represent maybe 6% of the total casualties from WWII. Let us also not forget that WW2 was part of a long line of horrific wars with astonishing death tolls. WW1, the Chinese Civil War, Russian Civil War, Russian Revolution, Russo-Japanese War, and so on. While this film is great, it tells an incredibly narrow story.

When the film was released, I watched twice. When DVD came, I bought one and watched several times. To me it is greatest movie of all time. I resolved to visit Krakow and Warsaw, which I did in 2016. I spent a day in Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp. Despite thousands of visitors, the place had melancholic atmosphere. I felt as if spirits of the dead were around us, walking with us, looking at us with most painful, terrified expression on their faces. I saw Krakow and Warsaw Ghetto. I stopped at the memorial where Willy Brandt, the German Chancellor, on state visit to Poland got out of his car, walked to the memorial and knelt down to pay homage and pray. No amount of speech, apology, regret would have achieved what this simple yet most heartfelt gesture did.

There were many other death camps, ghettos, and scenes of the Holocaust atrocities besides Auschwitz. Especially in Poland and Ukraine but also in Byelorussia and the Baltic States. I believe Belzec, Sobibor and Treblinka in Poland are places you can visit and appreciate the full scale of the horrors and how it happened in the relative peace of not having huge numbers of visitors. It is important that people know about these places.

Whoever saves one life, saves an entire world.

And yet people's hearts are still hardened. With all the evidence people still believe it never happened.

Dear Mr Spielberg, you said that you and your wife experienced the total silence of the audience when you watched it on the 25th Anniversary. I watched the film on its first release here in the uk, let me tell you even then the audience watched in silence, and when the film came to its conclusion nobody moved, but sat, in silence, riveted to their seats. It is without doubt the most powerful film I have ever seen, and whenever I hear the theme music I cry. Thank you for having the courage to make it !

Was originally going to watch this to understand how Spielberg filmed it but ended up watching the whole interview. Incredible interview with a master filmmaker and important piece of history.

Survivors would tell you the same with a rather famous quote of one after watching the movie beeing "not brutal enough". Spielberg created a masterpiece without a doubt. And what i consider one of the most important movies of all time, if not THE most important. But mirroring the brutality of these times is just not possible aslong as we cant go back and film it as it happens.

My heart shatters to think how awful humanity can be to one another.
