@@lukevortex1037 At STALINGRAD, 91,000 German Soldiers surrendered. Only just over 5000 got back to Germany. The rest died as POWs of the SOVIET UNION.
This week's algorithm pick is Schindler's List. Whoever had bid on Schindler's List please claim your reward before next week's algorithm bidding. Thank you for playing Algorithm Roulette.
Yea i recently have been wandering aimlessly on youtube and noticed the same thing. Before Schindler for me was Some guy named Tate and before that a comedian who can only do crowd work and never said a single “joke”
the whole of that time Western sovjet union was a meat grinder. My grandfather got a shrapnel in his head and died 1983 in a wheelchair when i was a kid. Made my grandmother do her first big Trip to Hospital in Berlin. That's just a little episode and he survived, even after injury my mother Was born and so was i. Millions had not that luck. That's a meat grinder
What an incredible psychological domination. “What is your name?” with the implication of consequences to a soldier who knows the answer to that question has resulted in brutal deaths to others.
@@eunaoseivireifanfiqueir2529 yes really. If a boss who you've never spoken to before wants your name, it's either because you've done well or fucked up.
People are leaving out the fact that taking down names isn't the scary part, it's the fact that he surrendered his so easily. He didn't care if they knew who he was and they realized that he probably wasn't bluffing.
Schindler didn't really have to worry as much as the soldiers. He still outranked both in the Nazi Party hierarchy, and he knew how to whip out that "presentation" when he needed it.
As a taxi driver in 2015 I actually got to pick up Schindler's son and his son. He was over 70 and the furthest from prejudice you can imagine. A bank teller enthusiastically greeted him well when I walked with him and his son into the bank, he wore round German spectacles and a hat like his dad in this video clip, only it was white with a brown band, blue jean shirt, hung untucked, sleeves rolled half way up his fore arm over white dress pants and sandals and white goatee. He was layed back not old fashioned but the character and spirit of his German Dad and Jewish Mom was distinct and unmistakable, he was no disappointment for sure! Son was a very good looking young man in his early 20s, heir to the legacy.
Schindler: well gentlemen I can promise that you'll be in Russia in no time. SS soldiers: mistakes were made, promises broken.....can there be a peace between us?
I teckon the two baddies were familiar with the name. The Party badge was also a clue that potential trouble was in the offing. And accusations of sabotaging production could be fatal faster.
@@Jarzyn44 Yes but it would not necessarily have ended there. Schindler was at that time a wealthy industrialist planning to make munitions for the German army. He was also quite high ranking in the Nazi Party and certainly outranked the officer. Schindler really did have enough power to damage the soldiers" lives if he chose to exercise it.
This is the 3rd scene of Schindler’s List I’ve seen today even though I’ve never watched anything on youtube having to do with this movie. You’re doing great RU-vid!
Capture by the Russians was very feared. Until their city was surrounded by Russian forces, the Berlin residents expected Patton to capture their city. That is why the German defenders fought so heavily against the approaching Russians. It was to give Patton's army time to approach. What they didn't know was Patton was strictly forbidden to advance because of the secret agreements made at the Yalta Conference.
Plus, the Soviets were much closer to Berlin than the western allies were. The logic was, "Why bother trying to take Berlin if the other guy will take it first?"
@@attackpatterndelta8949 its emphasis. Its the same as saying "big ass tractor", or "long ass rope". It's a bit weird to use it for a movie but I guess it works
I saw this movie in the theater many years ago... And at the end of the film you could have heard a pin drop other than the collective tears and crying from the audience... No one moved for about 20 minutes after the credits were running.... I will never forget it as one of the most moving experiences of my life
Yes and imagine how much more of an emotional experience it was to LIVE what was portrayed rather than watching a reenactment. And then consider all the hundreds of thousands of holocaust deniers and how it must feel to hear someone deny the most horrific parts of your life.
@@crazyoilfieldmechanic3195 Why focus on what divides us? That will not help bring people closer, nor fix societal woes. Not that the fact that there are Holocaust deniers out there, but being bitter about it will not change their minds. If it’s such a concern, you could have a conversation with one and potentially make a positive difference.
I read the book first and most of the ending is not in the film. I needed to use the bathroom, as it was such a long film I thought that it would have an interval. But it didn’t so I had to get to the bathroom straight away
German soldiers shiver to their spines whenever Southern Russia is mentioned. It's a vicious battleground where Germans sent there rarely returned alive.
We had it mandatory at elementary school at about 11 years of age (Czech Republic). We had a rich experience with these "superior" butchers. Very important to know the human nature ASAP.
Remember this day my friends that day Shindlers list has taken over everyones feed on the planet because next week it will be a cat playing with yarn videos
@@Daniel1.1 You're mistaken greatly. Hugo Ferdinand Boss, the founder of the German fashion brand Hugo Boss, was indeed connected to the design and production of Nazi uniforms during World War II. In the 1930s, the Hugo Boss company primarily focused on producing workwear and uniforms for various organizations. As the Nazi party rose to power in Germany, there was an increasing demand for uniforms for the paramilitary organizations and the military. Hugo Boss's company played a significant role in producing the black SS (Schutzstaffel) uniforms, the brown SA (Sturmabteilung) uniforms, and the Hitler Youth (Hitlerjugend) uniforms; but not the common army - Wehrmacht.
@@janzizka9963 There are several sources, none of them will convince me of one or the other. But, if the company did make uniforms for the Germans during World War 2, it changes nothing for me. It's clothing.
The picture of Nazi's kicking a group of Jewish men kneeling on the ground bothered me when I 1st saw that pic whem I was 17.It taught me to NEVER look the OTHER way.Ever.
Considering how being assigned to a combat unit on the Russian front was thought to be a fate worse than death I can understand why the two Germans were more than willing to help Schindler find Stern.
It's honestly terrifying how so many agreed with the Nazis philosophy simply because it was the opinion of the majority, or simply perhaps because otherwise they would be punished But, the idea that someone can suddenly become a cold-hearted monster in the blink of an eye merely because they're told to be that way
Same with the indigenous in américa, the winners tell the story, that's why,they make you think, Spanish was the good one and the indigenous were the bad ones. The truth is coming out!!
SS- Does nothing and is unhelpful as fuck Schindler- “I can guarantee you that you’ll be in Southern Russia within the month”. SS- “I have made a continuous lapse in judgement.”
Such a short powerful scene. 1. It shows that some of those monsters were kids (probably 19 or 20 years old). 2. It shows that Schindler is so confident that he took the risk to just walk away. 3. The Nazi guys become his bitches and start helping him in no time. 4. Once he finds Stern, he's upset that it could have ruined his business. Stern almost feels bad because of that. 5. The rest of the scene is one of the saddest of the movie.
I hate that I know that’s not true. That is the proper rank. Leutnants/Untersturmfuhrers shoulder patch would be fully silver. Not sure about the neck collars tho
He's not a Lieutenant nor claims to be one. He's an NCO with the rank of SS-Hauptscharfuhrer an equivalent to a Sergeant Major (Though a comparison is perhaps inaccurate). I think you confused Hauptscharfuhrer with Hauptsturmfuhrer which is a fair mistake to make. I hope this helps.
@@BobRoss-kt4yu You are correct, SS commissioned officers wore aluminium wire shoulderboards. The collar tab of a Untersturmfuhrer would be a diagonally placed 3 silver pips.
Liam has the lead as Oskar Schindler and gives a brilliant performance. He was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar in 1993 but lost to Tom Hanks in "Philadelphia."
It’s nice to see a man respect the list and efficiency. Even though the man lost his plant manager, he offered to send them on vacation to Crimea and the Caspian Sea. What a guy. Respect for the system, that’s the German way… They were so touched by his offer that they went and helped him find the manager anyway… this is a perfect example of humanity getting along.
I dont have the strength to watch this movie.. these small parts is enough.. Should make a movie of how columbus saved the people from a genocide in spain..
