Was Oskar Schindler's life ever in danger?

Yes, many times.One example- If Amon Goeth had ever really realized what Schindler was doing and had turned him in, he wouldn't have lived. Actually, if anyone had found out what Schindler was doing, he definitely would have been persecuted.Another- At the end of the movie Schindler's List, he has a complete mental breakdown and starts crying. He feels as though he could've saved more Jews if he hadn't spent so much more money on non-important things- like wine and women. He was a part of the Nazi party, so he was going to be hunted down even though he is now credited for saving over 1,100 Jews, the Schindlerjuden.


Why will Oskar Schindler be remembered?

"Oscar Schindler did what no other German or human being for that matter, at that time,was willing to do to protect a people and save a nation from mass genocide and religious and ethnic persecution." Schindler was a rich German businessman in Nazi Germany in the 1940s, conducting much of his business in Krackow, Poland when it was under Nazi occupation. However, as the World War II went on he discovered how Hitler and the Nazis were treating Jews, by imprisoning them and exterminating them in gas chambers throughout Poland and that part of Europe. To try and help the Jews, he employed hundreds of them (in reality far more than he needed) as slave labour in his factories, making weapons for the Nazis, so that they could not be sent to the extermination camps. Those Nazi officers who suspected that something was not right were bribed by Schindler not to tell the authorities, who would close the factories and send the Jews to their deaths, and presumably kill Schindler. His vast fortune just held out until the end of the war when the hundreds of Jews he saved were finally freed by the allied forces. Although a Nazi, Schindler was pardoned by the allied forces and is now thought of by the Jewish people as a hero - putting his own safety on the line for the sake of the Jews & there families he saved. Apparently, when questioned, his only regret was that he could not save more. ¨ He bought Jewish owned factories. ¨ . He negotiated the salvation of 1300 Jews, using the Germans' own ways of operating,through bribes, extortion, lies, black marketeering... ¨ . He got in touch with remaining wealthy Jews and had them invest in his company exchanging their money for their protecting, by having them work in his factories as skilled or essential labourers. He then paid of Nazis so they would allow the Jews to stay in Krakow. ¨ . He set up a branch of the Plaszow concentration camp for 900 Jewish workers in his factory and made a list of the workers he would need. ¨ He saved most of the workers by moving his factory to Brunnlitz in October 1944. Oscar Schindler said 'I was a Nazi, and I believed that the Germans were doing wrong ... it didn't mean anything to me that they were Jewish just that they were killing millions of people There is a book written about Schindler called 'Schindler's Ark' that tells of his work saving the Jews in his factories. There is also a movie (film) made by Steven Spielberg about Oskar Schindler called Schindler's List which is one of the most moving movies ever made. Although gruelling in places, at times I would defy anyone not to shed a tear - especially at the end, when a line of hundreds and hundreds of elderly Jews files past Schindler's grave to pay their respects to a great man - all with their own families now, children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, who would not be here now had it not been for Schindler.


Is oskar schindler a hero?

Oskar was definitely not a bad guy at the beginning of the story he is against the Jews but he learns how mistreated the Jews were and saves 1200 Jews by using his factory as a safe place or as the Jews called the paradise. This is definitely true, but he was also immoral in a lot of ways. He drunk ALOT, and he cheated on his wife many times. Of course this does not make him a bad guy because he did more good things then he did bad, but he did do some bad things in his life.

What was the difference between the ghetto and the life the Jews left behind in Schindler's List?

In the film Schindler's List the Jews live and work from the ghetto, much like many Jews did at that time. Later in the film the Jews are moved to a concentration camp, some two kilometres from the factory from where they walked to work.
