The Halocaust and Movies:
===================================================
Finally, my problems in the lab were solved, and the results were pouring out satisfactorily. Expectedly, I may be able to close all lab works within the next few weeks, and, after that, I will focus solely on writing my dissertation.
So after a difficult time in my professional career, it might be a good time to talk about one of the most cruel times in modern human history, the Halocaust.
Essentially, it's all about unreasonable hates, jealousy, misconception, seeking a scapegoat for their failure, seeking supremacy for their race, and politics.
At the basic level, all humans are equal.... There is no supreme race among us regardless of their religion, geographical settings, and skin colors.
For some reasons, people in the country where halocaust was tragically initiated, a politician was successfully using their economic problems as a key issue to point out whom was to blame.
The Jews were scapegoats on this, and they thought that the Jews were a lower class of humans and they deserved to be eradicated, all of them.
With this madness, almost all of Jewish population in Europe ranging from the population in Germany, Poland, and many others were almost wiped out.... like a pile of dirt on their front porch.
Thus, this event is truly a "memorable" event where humanity should reflect upon.
There were several great movies about the Halocaust. To name a few, they are the Schindler's List, Life is Beautiful, the Pianist, and Munich.
These movies won more than 15 awards from the Academy.... Some of them were awarded with the Best Picture Award...
The question "why" is certainly out of the question.... It's the most remarkably tragic event in all mankinds. So, perception of the gravity among audiences is well-perceived.
For me, I liked the Life is Beautiful most... Because the movie did not illustrate the Halocaust in an extreme fashion.... I, as an audience, already had known about it. But, the story within the movie was a story of ordinary human beings with love and care....
The Schindler's List came in the second, personally... Although the cruelty of the Halocaust was portraited so graphically, the story of a German "boss" who tried to save "his employees" was beyond extraordinary... and, certainly, it captured many hearts.... So was mine.
Which one was your most favorite?
