CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Schindler (Liam Neeson) makes his presence, and stature, known at a nightclub while introducing himself to various S.S. members.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Based on a true story, Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List stars Liam Neeson as Oskar Schindler, a German businessman in Poland who sees an opportunity to make money from the Nazis' rise to power. He starts a company to make cookware and utensils, using flattery and bribes to win military contracts, and brings in accountant and financier Itzhak Stern (Ben Kingsley) to help run the factory. By staffing his plant with Jews who've been herded into Krakow's ghetto by Nazi troops, Schindler has a dependable unpaid labor force. For Stern, a job in a war-related plant could mean survival for himself and the other Jews working for Schindler. However, in 1942, all of Krakow's Jews are assigned to the Plaszow Forced Labor Camp, overseen by Commandant Amon Goeth (Ralph Fiennes), an embittered alcoholic who occasionally shoots prisoners from his balcony. Schindler arranges to continue using Polish Jews in his plant, but, as he sees what is happening to his employees, he begins to develop a conscience. He realizes that his factory (now refitted to manufacture ammunition) is the only thing preventing his staff from being shipped to the death camps. Soon Schindler demands more workers and starts bribing Nazi leaders to keep Jews on his employee lists and out of the camps. By the time Germany falls to the allies, Schindler has lost his entire fortune -- and saved 1,100 people from likely death. Schindler's List was nominated for 12 Academy Awards and won seven, including Best Picture and a long-coveted Best Director for Spielberg, and it quickly gained praise as one of the finest American movies about the Holocaust.

He comes into the room and nobody knows him. He leaves the room with everybody knowing who he is.
If that's not genius foreshadowing, IDK what is
@@thedemonthatchasedyouupyou1747 Yeah this film is a 1 000 000 000 percent masterpiece.
He leaves the room and people still don't know who he is 🤔
No they don't. They know his name. Not who he is.
@@JonathanXLindqviust you know what he meant.
I think it's interesting how he brings them over to his table instead of going over to theirs. That's a power move right there.
Yes, he was in his own lead...... What an MAN.....

Right. That was slick. And the whole thing was a business power play. I think they went in part because at his table he will be picking up the tab.
“Find out who he is.” He’s a Jedi Master.

"How to win friends and influence people" by Oscar Schindler
😂
Lol
Saul Alinky, you mean?
Is this a book ??
*Oskar
Whatever else you can say about Oskar, the man was a smooth player.
Its a miracle what God can do, he can use evil for good
Amen! Can I get a witness. He knew how to play these people like he's in a High End Chess Game. I also loved how he got himself ready for the evening with his Suit, Cufflinks and "Money". He knew how to win them over even before talking to Itsak Stern.
Imagine being so charismatic, that you are cast in this role. "Liam, we need you to be the most charming person ever and we thought you were perfect for the part....."
I like
Smoother than bruce wayne
He does, after all, have a set of particular skills....

+Russian Bear Not the work, not the work!
Wheeling and dealing is as much fun as it is unethical.
good luck
C Alex The presentation.
Wow, that's what I call social skills.
funny
Very good! I had some half-formed thoughts of a similar vein! For once the KZhead comments section was worth it!
that's not socials skills at all, actually "buying" skills
social skills ,but some social skills are created by desperation... this would be one example...
You mean a specific set of skills?
Best introduction to a main character that I've seen. I wish more films can do this. When you introduce a character, you should set them up as someone you're interested with. You have to convince the audience to follow these people. This film manages to get tell you who this person is and how he thinks. It show's you his goals and what he's after in only a few shots.
looking back on it, this reminds me so much of Cary Grant's introduction in Alfred Hitchcock's "Notorious". It just runs a touch smoother, though. Still, it's interesting to see Spielberg's influences still make their way into all of his films.
+arthousefanatic Very well said!
+arthousefanatic this of course implies that you're supposed to be infatuated with the MC of course.
+ryerock32 What?
Certain shows /movies/books set you up to dislike the main character at first so you appreciate their growth more.
The close-up of him holding the cigarette whilst he spares a compassionate smile for a bored damsel is probably one of my most favourite scenes in cinematography.
Not only that, when he sees the ss laple his eyes and forehead frown.
@@ericlify You are right! And it is not only "a bored damsel" ( like Vin 206151 wrote)but a young Polish woman who is forced prostituting herself that she and her family could survive under the cruel German occupation!
Compassionate? He is planning everything. She wants his attention
@@darthinvader1970 same i come here for the same.
Compassionate is wrong in my opinion. That shot was designed to show that Schindler was a womaniser. It’s a lascivious look.
if only i had as much charisma as liam in this scene!
All you need is money and balls
+tdevil101 Pretty much balls. Money too but I think the money that was in Oskars pocket that day was the very last of what he had.
You do..INVOKE the power..there is nothing ANYONE has that you cannot obtain. If you are NOT actively engaged in getting what you want, you DON'T really want it...
All you need isn't money but a particular set of skills
I like your thinking...
Liam Neeson's glare at the crowd slowly turning the stare to the Nazis being photographed as he stylishly smokes his cigarette... Top Marks! Elegance, Inside-Intensity and Style right there!
Such an intelligent line when he says "You tell them they are from me" and sums up perfectly how well Oscar plays the game, if he had told the waiter to tell the officers that there were sent by Oscar Schindler they wouldnt have known who he was and so possibly declined the offer. But by withholding his name Oscar creates an air of mystery and thus drawing his target closer to him, all confirmed when the one officer tells the other to "find out who he is" and thus the trap is sprung.
Pre-Anime Age men were something else
@@phpeon9282 Bro what
@@phpeon9282 ikr bruh fr
I like to think it wasn't to create mystery for the officers but it is a line directed simply at the audience who were expecting to hear a name.
Liam Neeson stole my heart in this role
Trish Jacobs me too
Trish Jacobs - mine too❤️❤️
same I watching this in my sophomore English class in high school and I literally fell in love.
I couldn’t breathe properly. That scene was strong. Stole my heart, yes. And didn’t know how good his acting skill was. Love him.
@@creatinecutie that's exactly what happened to me
The way Spielberg shoots this scene is masterful. Look in particular at the shot from 0:57-1:40 and how your attention is drawn through all parts of the frame in sequence. The camera essentially only rotates 90 degrees throughout the whole shot and I counted eight different focal points, or "shots" within that one shot. Hardly any mainstream director shoots like this anymore, with that kind of attention to detail and drama by changing the composition of the frame.
Not only this scene, this entire movie has many examples of economic visual storytelling, as well as lyrical editing.
I wish Im talented as steven spielberg 😞
Attention to detail!
How do you count shots? Pls explain how. I wanna be able to do it myself
Yes, we get it, you spent a foolishly exorbitant bit of money on a useless film studies or media degree... Enjoy Starbucks!
He was hunger for power and authority, used money to gain power and spent it to save lives.
Well said.
"Find out who he is" .... "He is a jedi master, Zeus, leader of assassins, teacher of Batman, god of a another world, and Oscar Schindler. One time his daughter was kidnapped and he killed like 100 people to free her. He knows how to fence and he assured me that credits will do fine"
I am obsessed with this scene! The camera pan on Neeson holding a cigarette with the lighting and Por Una Cabeza playing in the background is just iconic.
I agree. I watch this scene over and over!
1:50 Schindler must be paying the photographer to take an unexpected picture of him with the colonel. I never noticed that until now!
never saw that, it's all part of his plan
Sebastián Gómez Letelier All part of his plan of making friends of those powerful nazi officials. Later when you see him sending in gift baskets and money to bribe them to favour him over the other manufactors, you can see the photos on the desks of those nazi party bigshots. They already like him, and so if he continues to ply them with goods they'll definitely scratch his back too.
nailgun good catch.
Wow, I've watched this movie probably 30-40 times and NEVER caught that! Excellent!
They don't make films like this anymore. Great analytical skill!
Backround music: *por una cabeza tango* Now gimme that like
Thanks dude, I was about to ask but decided to look for someone commenting it
From Uruguay, by El Mago himself.
@@federicobenitez5481 Carlos Gardel (Charles Romuald Gardes) was born in Toulouse, France. He emigrated aged 3 to Argentina and became an Argentinean citizen and died Argentinean. He never declared to be French because he feared to be sent to WW1 front. Years later (1920) to aquire legit documentation to allow him to travel to europe for concerts, he declared to be a Uruguayan citizen named "Gardel" instead of "Gardes" his real name. End of the story
I was about to type the question about the music when I read this haha thanks dude
Here, take you dislike good man
0:31 that shot is fucking beautiful. Makes you want to become a smoker just because of how awesome Liam looks here. Lol and the music in the background
Exactly! I love rewatching this shot again and again.
beautiful scene. he didn't care about the women, he knew he could get her no problem. he is more interested in doing the tango with the powerful officers.
He was 193cm. That's like 6'4. In those times that was "gigantic". He was a Chad.
@@martinm.1967so did immense height mean anything back then?
@@martinm.1967it’s still gigantic now. Way above average height.
I can't watch a single scene from this movie without wanting to watch the whole thing, again.
That’s when you know the movie is really good.
@@george9057 it's a flawless movie.
The shot starting at 00:57 and going to 1:40 is one of the most elegant single shots I've seen. The way it transitions from one composition to another is so stunning (very Welles-ish). I find parts of this film over-rated (never been a fan of the girl in red) but this scene is absolutely perfect.
I think exactly the same, but I also loved his way of smoking
I definitely forgot I was watching a movie
How to make extremely powerful friends and influence people.
Money

+amazingdany Be Liam Neeson? Thanks!
Amen. There's a Saying "To Win The People, We First Must Understand The People." He spoiled them with Liquor, Chocolate, and other delicacies.
That's the power of cinema. This scene is one of the most iconic in film making. When camera, music, lighting and cast fall into place, magic happens. Liam's eyes at 0:31 and his look at 0:44 or 0:45 are stealers.
Truee
"por una cabeza" is a masterpiece and probably the main reason why this scene is so good
I’ve seen this film many times but never have I noticed the look at 0:44 thank you for pointing that out!
1:03 The way she looked at him.. that alone establishes how charismatic he is. The best part in the entire sequence..
Nice. I have never noticed this before. Yes, he is just sitting there but hi presence draws everyone's interest.
@@squashedeyeball what about 0:23
He was 193cm. That's like 6'4. In those times that was "gigantic". He was a Chad.
@@martinm.1967 that's still very tall in today's age lol
@@martinm.1967 He may have had to spend some bribe money not to get called up into the armed forces - imposing physical height and he was still only 38 at the end of the war. A recruiting office might have been tempted. Older people than him were being called up, especially as Germany's fortunes in the war declined.
one of the greatest introduction scene of the lead character .
One of the greatest character introductions of all time ,,That's Oskar Schindler"
Liam Neeson looks so young here. He hasn't changed that much, honestly.
Considering this was nearly 24 years ago, I wonder why he looks so young.
Jenna Denjern Bull..
Contradicting yourself.
HANDSOME BUT LOOKS LIKE HE HAD WORK DONE
The song in the background is "Por una cabeza" by Carlos Gardel
Thanks... been looking for 4 years for it
Yesss!!
The same as 'Scent of a woman' tango dance.
I know..........soy argentino!!!!!
Beauty
Wow this man Liam Neeson, looks actually beautiful in this scene, you don't even have to be attracted to men, his eyes his gaze, the hands on his mouth, the face the hair, what a beautiful scene and man.

Spielberg's masterpiece. The best movie in cinema history, in my opinion.
I prefer avatar, but seriously, most are great
Jimmy S yes, I agree with you both, but I think we have to rank the best in each category, Schindler’s List is probably the best in the drama and war category. Once upon a time in America is definitely top 3 in the crime category. Both great films

That opening alone tells you everything you need to know about Schindler: A brave, ambitious character, a strategic genius, a cool-heated temper, a generous soul, a sophisticated gentleman (with a sly fox inside), a guy notably different from any man wearing the same uniform as he ... Oh and a confirmed ladiesman! 😄
He was 193cm. That's like 6'4. In those times that was "gigantic". He was a Chad.
@@martinm.1967 a real Prometheus if there ever was one
I just realised at 1:55 (when the officer asks if they know oscar) you can already see oscar in the background talking to the photographer and giving her money to take the photo at the end of this clip. What a good set up
From 0:31 the way the camera moves slowly to the right while Neeson is holding the cigar is got to be the most coolest and slick scene ever. Neeson can be Bond during his prime
Me: *wishes to have this level of social skills while Tango plays in the background* Also Me: *struggles to talk to people whom I've known for over 5 years*
it be like that :((
Bruh, i got you
He was 193cm. That's like 6'4. In those times that was "gigantic". He was a Chad.
The light which “hits” Mr.Neeson’s face is something so spectacular. Great cinematography
The classic 1940s star lighting.
@@legionpigsmack1153I'm glad someone else noticed that
The guys who plays oskar has so much charisma its heart breaking
Liam neeson bro best actor ever in my opinion
+Yurielen Tejada Yeah he has the most cunning eyes ever........
You know that's Liam Neeson right, the main guy in Taken, and qui Gon Jin in Star Wars episode 1
"The guy"
And Ras Al'Gul on Batman begin
I write for network TV for a living, and in my opinion this is the most brilliantly shot scene in the history of film. There will be others who offer vastly different opinions, but every angle, every line of dialogue, is so very wonderful.
I completely agree. Best introduction of a character ever.
It's such a pity I don't have the balls to chat up a girl like this.
Say hello to... well, whatever.
***** Women who only like your money but find you fucking ugly and shitty. They only like your wallet, thats all. But its your own fault. A real man doesnt need those women. He just needs one lovely wife.
What is the music here?
it's not about balls....it was a different time back then..(and up until about 20 years ago)...now the woman will sure you for sexual harassment!
subkontrabasklarinet Well you should hurry that You'll soon be crossing over :)
this scene makes me wanna have a cigarette
+Marshal Shawan You'll come to regret it in a few decades..if you're lucky
+Kevin Zhang Yeah but if you look at Mad Men, Grease, and even Carol or even Chick Lit Books from the 1950's and 1960's, or that even take place in that time zone, somebody's always smoking A Cigarette. I don't smoke myself but when I went clubbing I always met someone through a Cigarette.
+Kevin Zhang True, my mother in law is a smoker, she started when she was fourteen and her lungs are shot. Can't remember what its called copd maybe ? idk but she is in the last stages of it and will not live much longer. She's 56 and will be lucky to live another year ,I'm a smoker have been for 15 year's and I'm trying to stop, evertime I'm with her, her breathing scares me. Its very hard but I'm trying to stop, hopefully in the next week or two I'll be done.
how is it going kit cat? by the sounds of your situation i hope you have. it took me 3-5 times over a period of time but i did quit and ith has been 8 years. it aint easy but you can do it
I don't smoke at all. I did for a brief time in my Twenties but I wasn't a "Regular" Smoker. I don't even do the E-Cigarettes.
“Find out who he is.” He’s Ras Al Ghul.
He'll find you and buy you a drink
0:31 Man No one can beat the look and that posture. Hands down.
For many years from the very first time I watched this scene I had the impression this is a reference from Spielberg about how Argentina government was so friendly to the nazis...
This is one of my favorite scenes ever…on business. _This_ is how you do business. You strategize. Find your prospects. Spend some money. Make them the center of your attention. You earn their trust and their affection. And then contracts flow to you. In business, relationship is more important than nearly anything else. People today forget that.
True
SS: "May I zee your paperz bitte" Oskar Jinn: *moves hand* "There's no need to see my papers" SS: "Therez no need ta zee hiz paperz"
I love how he looks so aloof in the first minute... it's like "I don't really exist, I just observe what is happening"
One of the best shot scenes I've ever seen.
Smooth as an oil slick on an iceberg.
"What a lovely fragrance, you're breaking my heart!"
Great tan Marcus, I mean really
From 00:20 to 00:56 one of the best directing in history of cinema
I don't think anybody really says it. But that image, Liam Neeson with a cigarette in his hand and a grin on his face is in my opinion one of the most distinct images in cinema history.
No its james from fallout 3
same voice actor
No, this is Patrick!

@@TheLegendaryRedneck Is this the Krusty Krab?
This is what happens. I can't never watch just one clip, now I gotta sit through the movie. Such a well written movie.
Liam Neeson is a real heartthrob. 😍😍😍
Liam Neeson is the kind of man that you don’t get to see too much. I love him.
Classic & masterpiece !!!!!!! Where are such movies now ????
1:59 I have watched this film six times, only this scene over 20 times, and it is the first time I notice Oskar bribing the photographer. What a genious bastard you are Spielberg!!!
Even I didn't notice that, what an observation
51 people wish Oscar Schindler would buy them drinks.
This scene is a masterclass in film making. There is so much happening in there. Every other time I watch it I notice new things.
I first watched this when I was a young teen and found it extremely boring and couldn’t get into the story. Yesterday, I decided to try watching this again for the second time as a 24 year old adult and it’s one of the greatest films I’ve ever seen. Spent all these years thinking it was just an over rated movie that everyone talked about 😂 moral of the story, don’t trust your teenage judgement when it comes to movies.
3 legends in this movie- Liam Neeson Ben Kingsley Ralph Fiennes 🥰🥰🥰
His lust for power and women, captured in a beautiful scene. Most powerful movie ever created in my opinion.
Such a beautiful Soundtrack, this Version of Por Una Cabeza just hits right in the heart.
Thanks, I've adventure in the world to find this song
1:30 for a bit context: 50 RM (Reichsmark) was about an average weeks salary for a normal blue collar Worker in that Time.
Schindler probably spent just about all he had to schmooze them. It paid off. If it had not he was going back to Germany broke.
The base pay for a German Army (Heer) private was 35 RM a month, there may have been extra pay for various technical specialisations etc. However, it is likely that food and accommodation was free.
Mr. Neeson's cunning look is absolutely priceless!
The music in this scene....I almost feel guilty for liking it as much as I do.
This movie has great music
Same; I listened to it over and over when I found out gamermd83 had a boyfriend.
Don't worry buddy. The music is actually a well known tango written in Argentina! So listen to it all you want:)
"por una cabeza"
Song: "Por Una cabeza", sung by the greatest voice of tango, Carlos Gardel. Music by Carlos Gardel and lyrics by Alfredo Le Pera.
"You can say they are from me." Perfect!
That smile he gives go the woman compliments the music so well
A perfect blend of music, direction and camera work.
Jesus, Spielberg directed his ass off in this scene, not to say he didn't direct his ass off the rest of the film
Liam Neeson should have won an Oscar for his performance in this movie, that year. I mean, Tom Hanks in Philadelphia deserved it, there's no doubt about it, but Liam did such a great job as well... they should have been tied, and shared the Oscar that year. Just saying.
What a sad film that actually made me cry but Liam Neeson played such a great actor in that film. One of the best movies I've ever seen. Great job Liam Neeson u made that movie great.
He has a specific set of skills. Skills that can get him acquaintances for the business.
I especially adore the shots of Schindler's gaze through the smoke of his cigarette and the careful way in which he reads the room. The man is weighting who can be of convenience to him and who cannot, specifically targeting the most powerful ones. Masterful directing, focusing on his magnetic eyes.
…waving most beautiful banknote of the era, Alfons Mucha’s 50 Czechoslovakian Krone..
Thanks for putting these wonderful clips together.....
Probably one of the best character introductions in film. Everything about this is so brilliantly detailed and it makes Oskar's character very mysterious.
0:45 - 0:50 i always find that look of oskar shindler iconic
Liam Neeson here was so dashing.
Best movie of my time. Sad but inspiring at the same time.
How does he do that smile the charisma is unchallenged
1:09 Jesus. this is art. with the Tango, is unbelievable
You my friend, you're right The gesture on their faces, the tones of the voices, the light, the versatility of the cigarette and the money in their hands, and finally the Tango. God, the most perfect movie I've seen.
ich habe diesen film schon mehrmals angesehen,ich heule mir jedesmal wieder die augen aus.....i have seen this movie often,always i´. crying my heart out..........oh thanks god, that i had never going through any of a war.
the cinematography and music is breathtaking!
He won Best Actor IMO. Always will be winning for this role. Incredible acting. Brilliant.
By the end of this scene, Neeson had audiences in thrall, and years of anti-smoking campaigns had literally gone up in smoke! You don't get the full 100% same effect on KZhead or TV, but I first saw this on a *massive* cinema screen. I'll never forget it.
Spielberg flexing with this shot 2:49 . From the recovery of the lady all the way to the snapshot. Suave.
Liam Neeson isn't killing anyone in this scene!!
Ding
ПОЗИТИВная жизнь V-NETE
JusmaVids and isn't it so much better that way?
what does it mean "to not kill anyone"? I suppose its meaning isn't literal
JusmaVids He was killing this role
I couldn’t breathe properly while watching this scene. Everything looks perfect but Liam.. I was truly overwhelmed by his gaze and the way He smokes.. my mouth wants to say something but I can’t find a perfect word to describe my feeling towards him. I..
Liam Neeson is amazing! Look at those delicate expression changes on his face when he was looking at different person!
The music and exposition gives me chills
One of the best shots in music history, watching oskar’s eyes as por una cabeza plays in the background
Remember when Liam neeson wasn't a ridiculous action hero. He was a real actor here!
What a movie!!!!!!!! Spielberg you are a Genius!
Excellent use of lighting throughout this film. Very much in the noir style, throwing a beam of light onto someone's eyes (or, in one instance later in the film, deliberately casting a minor character's eyes in shadow). I wonder if they gave Neeson some kind of prosthetic for his mouth to help his accent. Whatever the case, he was able to transform his whole appearance in this role, looking almost like Bela Lugosi in Dracula in this scene.
Spielberg's genius. Right there. Even if he hadn't made any other films this one would have cemented his reputation. It will always stand as his greatest work.
"Find out who he is". "I don't who he is, but they tell me he's got specific set of skills"
What is the name of the actress @ 0:23 ? Please anyone who knows reply.
I like how the music elaborates the scene.
Work of camera is masterpiece!
