Night and Fog

The movie Night and Fog is a documentary about the Holocaust it was made 10 years after WWII ended at Auschwitz. The documentary shows footage of the Nazi mass killing and starving the Jews. When I saw Night and Fog, my reaction was just sickening because if you imagine your self in the shoes of the Jews it sad.The Nazi first just wanted to kill Jews in ghettos, but it wasn't killing them fast enough. Then the Nazi tried shooting them but that was costing too much money then the Nazi started gassing them and was the fastest way. The Nazi would send them to death camps (like Auschwitz) to work with no pay and barely any food.

Night and Fog and Schindler's list shared alot of the same images. But that's because the director of the Schindler list took scenes from Night and Fog for his Movie. The difference between Night and Fog, and Schindler's list is that Night and Fog is a documentary with real footage of Jews suffering. And Schindler's list is a Hollywood version of it. I think that Night and Fog is too grafic but gets right to the point of the Holocaust.
