The movie really made me think more about how the Jews felt during the Holocaust. It also made me think how I would feel like if I were a Jew during the Holocaust. This was a very powerful, and it made me think a lot. I think this movie was able to portray a more powerful message than Schindler's List because the movie showed real video footage of what was happening to the Jews.
The video footage that showed dead bodies on the floor and cut off people's heads was very sickening. I kept saying to myself " How can these people do something unacceptable and disgusting?" When I saw how skinny the people were it looked like they were just all bone, and it was very disturbing to me. Especially that they burned and gassed people while they were alive. The movie "Night and Fog" really gets the message of what happened to the Jews through your head.

Schindlers List
The movie really surprised me after watching it. They way Schindler's List portrayed the way Jews were treated is mostly by shooting the Jews and making them slaves. In the movie the Nazis were kicking Jews out their homes to put them into the ghettos. Ghettos were the small living places the Jews would live in where Hitler thought they would die of disease and starvation. When Schindler saw how the Jews were being treated, he got some Jews to work for him so they wouldn't be killed in the death camps. One scene that was very powerful for me was when the Nazis were cleaning up the labor camps to destroy the evidence. They way the cleaned the Jews up was disrespectful. They threw them away as if they were garbage and not humans. It was also sickening when men carried the skinny people and when they burned them. I think the movie that was able to portray the Holocaust better was "Night and Fog" . It's because "Night and Fog" was showing real evidence of what happened to the Jews like heads being cut off from people's bodies and the disposing of humans.
