In Reply to: Re: Totally agree with you Rico...Spielberg is much maligned here on this board and to me... posted by townsend on May 16, 2006 at 18:43:13:
Like in his other fims, he simply reaches for the most trivial "shocking" effects in his tool box, things we hate him for, and rightly so, things he elevated to the unfortunate "cult" status with his ridiculous SPR.Of course one can treat the subject that way, and perhaps this is what some need. But one can also express the horrors in a much more subtle, but more grabbing ways. Spielberg is unable to do any of that.
On balance... on one hand I will take ANY Holocaust reminder over no reminder, but on the other... I really wonder how much lasting effect that movie had produced.
