Release Date: 9 March 1994 (Philippines)

Schindler's List is a great movie depicting the unimaginable fate of the Jews during the Nazi Regime. It is a story of an opportunist Nazi member who was able to develop compassion for the Jews wherein against all odds, he was able to save a thousand Jews from their certain deaths.

Schindler's List is a MUST see movie. One of the BEST movies created for all time. It is a story of courage, compassion, and love at a time where these three seem to be non existent.

(The Holocaust. For me it is the most inhumane act done by humans against humans. Six million Jews terminated. Six million individuals. Millions of families. Up to now, I still can't understand how the Holocaust happened during WWII in a civilized society such as Germany. How could the civilized world tolerate such atrocious acts to happen on the Jews. I really can't imagine such fate. Where was compassion during those times?? Where was bravery?? Courage?? Love??)

I can't find its release date for Philippines but I'm pretty sure that it would still be shown here. I'm not much of an action movie lover but since I love cars then I will surely watch this movie and I must complete this movie franchise!
