Film Lesson: Night and Fog

The film documentary "Night and Fog" is about the Nazi concentration camps, which was shot at Auschwitz. I think that the documentary was a sad and moving film because it showed all the horrible things done to the Jews at the concentration camps. One scene from the documentary, was shot by the allies, shows the footage of concentration camp staff carrying the bodies of dead victims for burial in a mass grave. "Night and Fog" also had some similar scenes with the film "Schindler's List." Even though "Schindler's List" was a biographical film about Oskar Schindler, a German businessman who saved the lives of more than a thousand Polish Jews during the holocaust by employing them in his factories, I think that it portrayed the holocaust more effectively. I say this because the film showed more graphic images than the documentary did. "Night and Fog" was also graphic but I think that "Schindler's List" emphasized the things that were happening more.
