“Are you mad?” Schindler, a man literally giving it all up to save 1500 Jews, knows how impossible it is that an SS officer can’t just live his life peacefully in Vienna with a Jewish woman after everything he’s done.
Not just SS. Totenkopfverbande (Death's Head Unit)-SS. The skull on the right collar in lieu of the sig runes would have given a postwar prosecutor all he needed
SS officers who could slaughter an entire village for alleged partisan activities, then go to the opera and weep at the performance. They had a bizarre worldview.
Not love when the other person is fearing death if she doesn't obey. This is obsession and delusion. That he could force her have a secret " relationship" for the rest of her life.
@@philwill0123 Yep, it's obsession and unhealthy at that. He is also infatuated with her due to the Taboo factor. It probably excited some German officers to have what basically equals to these Taboo "Fk slaves/dolls". Sick thinking. Some of them were Pedos too......think about how horrific a situation that put some boys/girls in. Puts me on Auto-Vomit.
Oscar was taken a back just for a second but he had to press on with his manipulation to save this girl's life, "are you mad" he asks as if he actually cared for Amon, always covering his tracks and disguising his intent.
I like to think Schindler did care, that he was friends with Amon. He was a party man, a man who liked the money and the life style, i think it was easy for him to make friends with a man like Amon, just as he was spending his fortune to save hundreds of jews.
In real life he was friends with Amon, he even stayed in contact with his daughter and when she saw this film she asked Schindler if this was who her father truly was (she was told that her father died in the war and to her that made him a hero). He refused to answer.
@@Ah1My-Spinach-Puffs1 😂😂 wow you really wrote that like it was facts! You need to be a better troll if that’s what your going to do, cause anyone with a brain knows that Schindler died waaaY before this movie came out.
How different do you think you are from Amön? He's not a monster, he's just as human as you and me and that baby over there in it's crib. It doesn't take much.
@@jimvsamuel I believe he's referring to malleablility of human character. I recommend reading a particular book, I can't remember the name but it dictates the slow transformation of normal everyday German police officers. Ones who could hardly hurt a criminal let alone an innocent person, into monsters that took naked pregnant women into fields, shot them, and left them as they lie. Even the most normal and moral man, given enough pressure, can become monsters.
@@RedRhys64 I could not find it. Did you manage by any chance to remember the title?? I have been trying to understand how the Holocaust happened for more than 10 years.
He loved her and was obsessed with her and wanted pure possession of her as a thing that he cannot let go of. The part that gets to me is that he says she is not going to Auschwitz’s she is going to Vienna with me and will grow old with me.
When a man says he wants to grow old with woman it’s a sign that he’s in love with her! Amon Goth was in love with Helen Hersh and he hated himself for it.
@@MrBigBawls407 for once... yes... YES gen z child, go forward and seek the knowledge of the 90s. for this world is now yours...us millennials..we tried bro.. we tried to live as they did in the american pie movies.. but the leftists.. they... *looks away in shame* they made half of us woke... and just like that.. the world ended. now we have obese lezbeens demanding their 30 abortions per month. GOD WHAT HAVE WE DONE. 😆
Love is easily the most powerful feeling. Men will move mountains for a woman he loves. Short of killing, a man will go through any hell unthinking just for love.
Killing?! Heavens no. A man will stand against hundreds of other men in the name of love, he himself will die for this love. It takes a different kind of man to “live” for a woman in the name of love…
Fiennes did such a remarkable job in this role, brilliantly capturing the sinister cruelty of Goth while still allowing a hint of uncomfortable humanity to peek through in scenes like this one. Amazing acting skills!
I saw this movie in the theatre. There wasn't a dry eye in the place. Men were crying just as hard as the women including me!!! Speilberg's masterpiece
There were so many traumitizing scenes in this movie...it was almost unbearably real...the last scene..where Schindler is torn with such guilt...having thrown away so much money...that could have saved even more lives....how he wept...devastating...and then how the people came to him and hugged him and touched him, to comfort him....I wept at this more than i ever have with any movie..Neeson never delivered a performance more powerful than this...and never will..
Idk the real Patton was a paradoxical force of nature. Insane military brilliance running around in that head of his. Scott played him.like a tough hard-ass.
One of the most powerful films ever made. For years I've always heard it was good and people would suggest I watch it. 2 days ago I finally caved and I watched it and man was I blown away. Spielbergs theatrical mastery really shines through with this film.
That hypocrisy also comes from the fact this particular scene and the whole "loving his jewish maid" was invented for the movie, to give Goeth some more humanity. In the real life, Goeth never lusted after his 2 maids. He did beat them regularly, sometimes ordering them to get naked before beating them.
For Amon it wasn't about obsession or control, nor even toxic. What toxic was his ideology that didn't allow him to love Helend, he had feeling for her but had to suppress that using violent method to convince himself he doesn't love her.
The inner conflict of a evil man in love. There were no happy endings for everyone, just endings. Shattered lives and family's where the survivors could only remember in pain.
That “are you mad” was so subtly laced with the disgust that came with the knowledge of everything that Göth had done up until this point - absolutely brilliant. I genuinely believe Liam Neeson has never been able to top this performance.
Shindler totally sympathized with the man, but knew he didn't deserve her. He was a monster, deserving only of loneliness and misery for the rest of his days.
Spielberg pulled a very clever theatrical trick by putting this movie out in black and white. The lack of colour made this movie so much more serious and dramatic. Like it was shot in period, capturing the very essence of what happened at the time. Genius!
@@kaizen20205 of course she would think he wasn't in love with her if he was treating her badly. that means nothing about his feelings unless he is the one talking about it.
I found this on a website: -------- In 1964, Helen Hirsch Horowitz told Martin Gosch and Howard Koch that “insofar as she was concerned, he [Göth] had made some attempts physically and sexually upon her.” Gosch and Koch decided not to put this in the film script because “she might be accused even today of having acceded to his physical demands in order to preserve her life, and this does not happen to be true.” She told the Hollywood film makers that she remembered an incident when Göth called her into his room. When Helen entered, she saw that he was drunk and had a whip in his hand. Göth then began to beat her, “tearing off her clothes, attempting to rape her.” She began screaming and Göth’s mistress, Ruth, came into the room and saved her. Later, during a party, one of Göth’s officers, who liked Helen, told her that she would be the last Jew to die in Płaszów because Göth “derived a kind of sadistic satisfaction out of brutalizing her that gave him greater satisfaction than anything else in the world.” ----------- Well, If you want my opinion, I think he was simply a psychopath Also, the "film script" they refer to in this text is not Schindler's List, but a biopic of Oskar Schindler that Poldek Pfefferberg (one of the survivors of the List) planned to produce in the 60's, while Schindler was still alive. Pfefferberg helped in the production/creation of Schindler's Ark (the book) and Schindler's List later
He hated the Jews but loved the Woman. He hated that the Woman he loved was also a Jew but felt that in his life and with her people eliminated, she wouldn't become a threat to his people, to humanity, et al.
“Wouldn’t be right” lol it’s crazy how twisted their ideals and morals were. No problem capping a Jew point blank, but won’t play a card game for a jews life.
@@childelee2569 I’m not understanding what’s disgusting about it. It’s an opportunity to break through his prejudices and correct his mindset. All it takes is time and gentle correction. What better than a woman to do it? They have changed men since the dawn of humanity, why stop now?
I feel so uncomfortable by just watching amon goeth, because the actor playing the character is so brilliant and even when he is playing goeth I just love him. Cant watch him like this.
There is no reason for me to have an absolute explosion of Schindlers list videos on my feed. Anyone else? Or did my account just decide I needed this?
Interesting how you so dispise amon and then suddenly in this moment they humanise him....very interesting...great movie this one is. I've watched it 10+ times , more many more probably
Love how Oskar basically pulls a “Heads I win tails you lose” with Goeth. I’m either gonna pay this or that or I win and just get her outright. Shrewd and smart.
I’ve just watched this clip 5 times in utter disbelief that even he was betrayed by his feelings. What a confusing mess to be in. Wow what a scene I never remembered this when I watched the film but I was much younger then. Wow…:
Goth couldn't justify thinking of Jews as vermin when he fell in love with Helen. The guilt was eating him alive as it should have! He deserved what he got in the end!
Sadly this part is only fiction! Amon was a pure monster who never had a shred of sympathy for all the people under his cruel rule. All this was just made up to make him look more human because the real Amon was so disgustingly evil that he would have looked unrealistic!
