Thank you, Craig.  I thought I was alone in my opinion of "List", but I
find, encouragingly, that I'm not.  There was no CHANGE in the character of
Schindler thoughout the film, as far as I was concerned, he had no emotional
characteristics and was driven by greed, sex and pure hedonism.  His change
,so called, was melodramatic hogwash...and I had never seen so many well-fed
people in a concentration camp.
I was actually offended by the film...
