Oskar Schindler became an unlikely hero when he saved hundreds of Jews in Poland and Czechoslovakia from death at the hands of the Nazis during World War II. He was a heavy drinker and a womanizer; he was an opportunist and a crook; he was a profiteer and an egotist. He was also a member of the Nazi Party. But in the end, to roughly 1,300 Jewish people none of that mattered. To these survivors, Oskar Schindler was simply yet miraculously, a savior.

The Schindler's List saved the lives of roughly 1,300 Jews. Schindler was brought up in the Catholic faith and remained a Roman Catholic throughout his life. After school he worked as a commercial salesman. The expirience had him opening his shop were he saved the lives of 1300 jews.
