Firstly it is historically accurate...small details are adjusted for the screen. That does not make them historically innacurate if the historically accurate big picture is met. The girl in the red coat was a main highlight of the book and not some Spielberg add in. But of course people latch onto one or two reviews by people who hate Spielberg and make assumptions beased on past films of manipulative ploys?? Still tryying to figure out why Spielberg manipulates and Kirosawa and Kubrick don't - they do it just as much in a different way.

Lots of films on this subject matter like the Pianist didn't move me because the director wasn't nearly as talented.

Judging the historical content by what people here say is rather funny. I'm minoring in history and mostly German history from 1900 through 1950. I can tell you that of all the historical docu-dramas made Schindler's remains as one of the most even handed dispartial films on any historical content ever.

A Hollywood historical film would be "The Patriot" -- Now this is a film that everyone can freely rant against because the historical innacuracy one sidedness and general LIES is utterly shocking. This is Hollywood. Spielberg is responsible for the hollywood blockbusters only because he makes far an away the best of them. If others could make a film remotely as good people probably wouldn't complain. But unfortunately we get Michael Bay.
