In Reply to: A "best" Holocaust film? Hardly. posted by Victor Khomenko on May 17, 2006 at 06:14:30:
"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."I don't recall any "trivial 'shocking' effects" in SL. What exactly are you refering to? Certainly there were shocking scenes but they were shocking in their excellent representation of the real horrors of the holocaust. can't say that I saw anything cheap and manipulative in this one.
"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."
Examples? I can't say that I recall any movies on the holocaust that had moments that were more grabbing than the ones in SL. But if you can offe some examples it would be interesting to see your points illustrated.
