Film Lesson "Night and fog"

The film Night and Fog is a French film with English subtitles about the holocaust. I was shocked by this movie. It was very graphic, especially the documentary. In the documentary real people were dying and being tortured. I found the film very powerful because I could not believe what I was seeing actually happened. Night and Fog and Schindler's list both have similar scenes. Jews are seen boarding trains to the Ghettos and to the concentration camps. I really felt sad watching these films because it reminds of how cruel and disgusting some people can be. I was horrified by watching what the Nazis had done to the Jews. Most of those people were innocent and did not deserve to be tortured and killed. The documentary illustrates the holocaust better than the movie because it showed more graphic and real scenes that actually took place.
