Schindler’s List: A significant and captivating film that everyone needs to experience.

This was my 3rd attempt of watching the Schindler’s List. In past I had walked out of this film, as it was really hard for me to sit through it.

The Holocaust is undoubtedly one of the most significant and horrifying events of the twentieth century. From 1938 to 1945, approximately six million Jews were slaughtered, but one man ‘Oskar Schindler’ (played by Liam Neeson) decided to make a difference, by saving the lives of more than 1100 men, women and children.

Schindler’s List is captivating because the story it tells, the characters it portrays and the way it was shot feels very real to the audience. The black-and-white cinematography in here is magnificent. It helped to capture the ‘bleakness’ of the Holocaust, and also helped in getting a feel for the era.

I have always been a fan of Steven Spielberg. Call me shallow, but Jurassic Park is one of my favorite films. It offered me everything from a piece of cinema I want. But Schindler’s List is by far his biggest accomplishment.
I personally think he didn’t make this film as an epic film. It feels like this movie has a very personal meaning to him.

I never understood how the human race could get so low.
What’s really tragic about all this is how we are not able to learn from our past, from Nazi Germany to ISIS little has changed.

 

Musical Friday: Miike Snow – Genghis Khan

Miike Snow in this song is comparing himself to Genghis Khan who united the Mongol tribes and conquered all of China, and was known to have many women in his life.

Miike implies that he becomes irrationally, even violently jealous thinking of his lover sleeping with other people.

Its a good song for all the Jealous men out there.

 

Miike-Snow-Genghis-Khan-2015[Verse 1]

I know there’s no form
And no labels to put on
To this thing we keep
And dip into when we need
And I don’t have the right
To ask where you go at night
But the waves hit my head
To think someone’s in your bed

[Chorus]
I get a little bit Genghis Khan
I don’t want you to get it on
With nobody else but me
With nobody else but me
I get a little bit Genghis Khan
Don’t want you to get it on
With nobody else but me
With nobody else but me

[Verse 2]
And the lights, they glow
Like I’ve just lost the World War
And the scene slips away
To the evenness I fake
It’s a shit old world
Cause I don’t really want you, girl
But you can’t be free
Cause I’m selfish, I’m obscene

[Chorus]
I get a little bit Genghis Khan
I don’t want you to get it on
With nobody else but me
With nobody else but me
I get a little bit Genghis Khan
Don’t want you to get it on
With nobody else but me
With nobody else but me

[Bridge]
I wanna make up my mind
But I don’t know myself
No I don’t know myself
I wanna make up my mind
But I don’t know myself
No I don’t know myself
I wanna make up my mind
But I don’t know myself
No I don’t know myself

[Chorus]
I get a little bit Genghis Khan
I don’t want you to get it on
With nobody else but me
With nobody else but me
I get a little bit Genghis Khan
Don’t want you to get it on
With nobody else but me
With nobody else but me

Pokémon live action movie

There is only one question that’s bothering me today.

Considering how ridiculously popular Pokémon is I’m shocked there’s still no live action movie.

Whoever makes this live-action movie will soak up all the nostalgia cash.

I Hope someone in the universe is listing to me and planning a kick-ass live-action pokemon film for an adult audience.
