Schindler's List was shown in one of our history classes, I probably never would have watched it otherwise due to being black and white and me thinking I wouldn't like that.
I can't say that I enjoyed it, it's not a particularly "enjoyable" film. It was moving though, and talking in class about what humans are capable of was interesting.
I cannot specifically remember any of the others we watched, but I remember that I liked movie days because you tended not to get homework. They certainly weren't nearly as memorable though.
This one and the boy in the striped pyjamas for me. Would never have watched them otherwise, and to be truthful, I'm not sure I would watch them again. Great movies though.
I never heard of Schrinder's list until I already finished high school. I skimmed over the premise and I did not wanna watch it. So depressing, I wanna spare myself from crying and losing hope in the future. Sounds too sad to watch, even just a trailer broke me. Still haven't watched it, because its too nihilistic even for a nihilist like me.
It actually has a hopeful ending, fyi, despite being about such difficult subject material. It's not all gloom, though, it is a very well-made movie, overall. Liam Neeson is fantastic in it too.
