I interpret this many ways but these are a few of my reasons..

1. to show the innocence and hopefulness (colourfulness rather than dull and gloomy b+w) of the jews, predominantly children during the Holocaust.

2. red has connotations of danger and blood and violence and Horror. for it to be the only colour in the movie signifies these things.

3. We see it on a young girl, and we follow her through the town and under her bed to hiding. she is active and we familiarise with the character, and then we see the red coat on a death wagon. by getting the audience to become attached to the character and then for them to be killed makes the process more realistic, and more tragic.

4. to give the movie an artistic element, and show that it is a recent productional recount, not a classic movie.

im only 16 so im sorry if these arent very scientific or in depth :)

Why did they use color in the movie schindlers list?

The rare use of color in "Schindler's List" was during the Nazi raid on Warsaw, to draw attention to the little girl in the red coat. This was used to show Oskar's POV in watching her, and then to better show her fate late in the film. Then, at the end when the film switches to modern time to show the shift in time. Spielberg shot the film in B&W because that's how all the photographs of the time were shot, and subsequently he want to stay in that pallete as that's how most of us "remember" those times.
