"Yeah, beautiful, good!" " Again, yes!" " Good!" "Come on faster!" "Be quick!" "Move your ass!" "It could be done quicker!" "Hurry up, don't sleep!" "Only the whole pieces, leave the small parts!" "What's going on here?" "You can do it with your hands, quick!" "Come here!" "Only the whole pieces, leave the fucking small parts!" "Now you better make it quick, get rid of this shit!" "That's it!" "Immortals!" "Immortals are all around!" "Can you believe this?" "As if I don't have enough to do, they come up with this?" "I have to find every rag buried up here and burn it." "The party's over, Oskar." "They're closing us down, sending everybody to Auschwitz." " When?" " I don't know." "As soon as I can arrange the shipments." "Maybe 30, 40 days." "That ought to be fun." " I've been talking to Goeth." " I know the destination." "These are the evacuation orders." "I'm to help organize the shipments, put myself on the last train." "That's not what I was going to say." "I made Goeth promise me he'll put in a good word for you." "Nothing bad is going to happen to you there." "You'll receive special treatment." "The directives coming in from Berlin mention..." ""Special Treatment" more and more often." " I'd like to think that's not what you mean." " Preferential treatment, alright?" " Should we invent a whole new language?" " I think so." "You're staying, I take it." " In Krakow?" "What on earth for?" " What for?" "You have a business to run." "Of course, you'll have to hire new workers." "Poles, I guess." "They cost a little more, but..." "What are you going to do?" "You ran my business." "No, I'm going home." "I've done what I came here for." "I've got more money than any man can spend in a lifetime." "Some day, this is all going to end, you know." "I was going to say we'll have a drink then." "I think I better have it now." "I don't understand." "I mean, you want these people?" ""These people"?" "My people, I want my people." "Who are you, Moses?" "Come on, what is this?" "Where's the money in this?" "Where's the scam?" "It's good business." "It's good business in your opinion." "Look, you've got to move them, the equipment, everything to Czechoslovakia." "Pay for all that and build another camp." "Doesn't make any sense." " Look, Amon, it's good for me..." " You're not telling me something." "I know them." "I'm familiar with them." "I don't have to train them." " You're not telling me something." " It's good for you." "I'll compensate you." " That's right." " It's good for the army." " You know what I'm going to make?" " What?" " Artillery shells." " Everyone is making artillery shells." " Tank shells, they need that." " Tanks shells, yeah!" " Everybody's happy." " Everyone's happy, except me." "You're probably scamming me somehow." "If I'm making a hundred, you've got to be making three." "And if you admit to making three, then it's four actually." "But how?" " I just told you." " You did, but you didn't." "Yeah, all right, don't tell me." "I'll go along with it." "It's just irritating I can't work it out." "Look, all you have to do is tell me what it's worth to you." " What's a person worth to you?" " No, no, no, no." "What's one worth to you?" "Poldek Pfefferberg, Mila Pfefferberg and uh uh, Stagel, Stagel..." " Paul." " Paul!" "Paul Stagel." "Doctor..." " The investors." "I want all of them." " Yes, sir." "Uh, Fischer." "Ismail Fischer." "Fischer, Ismail." " Josef Scharf." " One moment, sir." "I'm sorry, sir." "Come on, Stern." "Scharf, Scharf." "The children, all the children!" " Herbert Stier." " Thank you." " How many?" " 400, 450." "More, more!" "Good morning." " Feigenbaum, Jakob." " Wolf." "Wolf Wein." "Feigenbaum:" "Lutek, Jakob, Nacha." "Yes?" "Nacha." "Nacha, that's right." "And Wolf." "How many?" " 600." " More!" "You can do the same thing I'm doing." " You might even make money at it." " I don't know." "Come on, Julius, I know about the extra food and clothes you give them." "Paid for out of your own pocket." "If we make a combined approach we could get more than 4,000 out, mine and yours." " Oskar!" " We could relocate them in something like safety, in Moravia." "I don't know." "How many cigarettes have you smoked tonight?" "Too many!" "For every one you smoke, I smoke half." " I've done all I can." " I will not accept that." " No, Oskar, I can't do any more." " I will not accept that." "No!" " How many?" "How many?" " 850, give or take." "Give or take what, Stern?" "Count them." "How many?" "That's it." "You can finish that page." "What... did..." "Goeth..." "say about this?" "You just told him how many people you needed and..." "You're not buying them?" "You're buying them?" "You're paying him for each of these names?" "If you were still working for me, I'd expect you to talk me out of it." "It's costing me a fortune." "Finish the page and leave one space at the bottom." "You..." "The list is an absolute good." "The list... is life." "All around its margins lies the gulf." "Oskar, there's a clerical error here at the bottom of the last page." "No, there's one more name I want to put there." "I'll never find a maid as well trained as her at Brinnlitz." "They are all country girls." "No!" "No!" " One hand of twenty-one." " No!" " If you win, I pay you 7,400 reichsmarks." " No!" " Hit a natural, I make it 14,800." " No!" "If I win, the girl goes on my list." " I can't wager Helen in a card game." " Why not?" "Wouldn't be right." "She's just going to Auschwitz Number Two, anyway." " What difference does it make?" " She's not going to Auschwitz." "I'd never do that to her." "No, I want her to come back to Vienna with me." "I want her to come to work for me there." " I want to grow old with her." " Are you mad?" " Amon, you can't take her to Vienna with you." "No, of course I can't." "That's what I'd like to do." "What I can do, if I'm any sort of a man, is the next most merciful thing." "I shall take her into the woods and shoot her painlessly in the back of the head." "What was it you said for a natural 21?" "Was it 14,800?" "Jews of Schindler, to these tables!" "Say your names clearly." " We are the family Dresner." " Juda, Jonas Donata and Chaja." " We are Rosners." "Henry, Manci..." " And Leo." " And our son." " I am Olek." "Maria Mischel." "Chaim Nowak."

"Luftig, Eliasz." "Hilmann, Eduard." "Erna Rothberg." "Zuckermann, Jetti." "Helen Hirsch." "The worst is over." "Men to this transport and women to this transport." "Be careful!" "Men to this transport and women to this transport." "Watch your step!" "Men to this transport and women to this transport." "Wonderful Olek, wonderful." "You know how we make ice into water?" "Olek, get another one!" "Position yourselves all in a single row!" "You'll be pleased with the level of efficiency I get from these workers." "Budzyn, under my command was the envy of every other commandant in the labour camp system." " The prisoners, however..." " Excuse me!" "...they would have rather been somewhere else." "The train with the women has already left Plaszow and will be arriving here very shortly." "I know you've had a long journey." "But it's only a short walk further to the factory where hot soup and bread is waiting for you." "Welcome to Brinnlitz!" " Beans in chunt?" " Beans are the best part." "I don't like beans." "Beans and meat and potatoes and bread." "That's not the way you make chunt." " Eggs in chunt?" " Yes!" " I don't like chunt." " No, you don't." " What do you like?" " I like caviar!" "One day on the fire..." " Oh, yes!" " One day..." "Position yourselves in front of the wagons!" "You've got to stay together." "Leave the wagons!" "Leave the wagons!" "I said, leave the wagons!" "Bagaze zostawic!" "Faster!" "Quick!" "Quick!" "What's going on back there?" "Move it!" "Come on, out!" "Hurry up, out!" "Thirty, thirty-five, forty, forty-five..." "Out!" "Get out!" "Quicker, get out!" "All of you, out!" " Where are the list makers?" " Where are the tables?" "Move the line!" "Get out!" " Quick!" "Get out!" " Faster!" "Quicker!" "Come on, be quick!" "Mama, where are we?" " 17, 18, 20" " They're in Auschwitz." "The train was never routed here." "A paperwork mistake." "Take off your shoes!" "Quicker, quicker!" "Take off your clothes!" "Hurry up!" "Hurry up!" "Stay in a row and take off your clothes!" "Quicker!" "Quicker!" "Take off your clothes quickly!" "Hurry up!" "SHOWERS AND DISINFECTION" "Go in, hurry up!" "Quicker!" "Go to the showers, quickly!" "Quicker!" "Quicker!" "Eyes on the necks!" "Hands on the shoulders!" " How old are you, mother?" " Sixty-eight." " Cough for me, mother." " They say to fall against the fence is a kindness." "Don't kill yourself against the fence, Clara." "If you do, you'll never know what happened to you." " How old are you, mother?" " Sixty-six, sir." " Sir?" " Good morning." "A mistake has been made." "We are not supposed to be here." "We work for Oskar Schindler." "We are Schindler Jews." " Who is Oskar Schindler?" " He had a factory in Krakow." " Enamelware." " A pot maker." "How old are you, mother?" "You are not the only industrialist who needs labour Mr. Schindler." "I remember earlier this year, IG-Color ordered a trainload of Hungarians for its chemical factory." "The train came in through the archway and the officer in charge of the selection went immediately to work and sent 2,000 of them straight away to "special treatment"." "It is not my task to interfere with the processes that take place down here." "Why do you think I can help you if I can't help IG-Color?" "Allow me to express the reason." "I'm not making any judgement about you." "It's just that I know that in the coming months we're all going to need portable wealth." "I could have you arrested." "I'm protected by powerful friends." "You should know that." "I do not say I am accepting them." "All I say is, I'm not comfortable with them on the table." "I have a shipment coming in tomorrow." "I'll cut you 300 units from it." "New ones." "These are fresh." " The train comes, we turn it around." " Yes, yes, yes!" " It's yours." " I understand." "I want these." "You shouldn't get stuck on names." "That's right." "It creates a lot of paperwork." "Zoldinger, Ernestina!" "Waldergrun, Hilda!" "Waldergrun, Leonora!" "Laast, Anna!" "Pfefferberg, Mila!" "Dresner, Ruth!" "Dresner, Danka!" "Nussbaum, Sidonia!" "Rosner, Manci!" "Hirsch, Helen!" "Grosz, Chaja Sara!" "Seelenfreund, Estella!" "Move it!" "Move it, quick!" " Faster!" "Faster!" " Come on!" "Quick, quick!" "Faster!" " Faster!" " Hurry up!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "Hey!" "What are you doing?" "These are mine!" "These are my workers!" "They should be on my train!" "They're skilled munitions workers!" "They're essential!" "Essential girls!" "Their fingers polish the insides of shell metal casings." "How else am I to polish the inside of a 45 millimetre shell casing?" "You tell me." "You tell me!" "Back on the train!" "Back on the train!" "Under Department "W" provisions it is unlawful to kill a worker without just cause." "Under the Businesses Compensation Fund I am entitled to file damage claims for such deaths." "If you shoot without thinking you go to prison, I get paid." "That's how it works." "So, there will be no summary executions here." "There will be no interference of any kind with production." "In hopes of ensuring that, guards will no longer be allowed on the factory floor without my authorization." "For your cooperation, you have my gratitude." "Come on, come!" "Oh, boy!" "I haven't seen something like that since years." "Come on, boys, come!" "No doorman or maitre d' will ever mistake you again I promise." " This is Itzhak Stern, my accountant." " You must be Mrs. Schindler." "It's a pleasure to meet you." " Emilie has volunteered to work in the clinic." " Very generous of you." " I know." "We need to talk when you have a moment." "This is my wife, Stern." "I don't keep any secrets from my spouse." "Oskar, please, attend to business." "It's much more attractive." " Madam." " Hello!" "What is it?" "We've received an angry complaint from the Armaments Board." "The artillery shells, tank shells, rocket casings!" "Apparently all of them have failed quality control tests." "That's to be expected!" "Start-up problems." "This isn't pots and pans." "This is a precise business." " I'll write them a letter." " They're withholding payment." "Sure, so would I, so would you." "I wouldn't worry." "We'll get it right one of these days." "There's a rumour you've been going around miscalibrating the machines." "They could shut us down, send us back to Auschwitz." "I'll call around, find out where we can buy shells." " Pass them off as ours." " I don't see the difference whether they're made here or somewhere else." "You don't see a difference?" "I see a difference." "You'll lose a lot of money." "Fewer shells will be made." "Stern, if this factory ever produces a shell that can actually be fired, I'll be very unhappy." " Hello, madam." " How do you do?" "How are you doing, Rabbi?" "Rabbi!" "Good, Mr. Director." "Sun's going down." "Yes, it is." "What day is this?" "Friday?" "It is Friday, isn't it?" "Is it?" "What's the matter with you?" "You should be preparing for the Sabbath." "Shouldn't you?" "I've got some wine." "In my office." "Come!" "What?" "Do you have any money, uh, hidden away someplace that I don't know about?" "No!" "Why?" "Am I broke?" "Well..." "Yesterday morning, at 2:41 a. m at General Eisenhower's headquarters General Jodl signed the Act of Unconditional Surrender of all German land, sea and air forces in Europe to the Allied Expeditionary Force." "And simultaneously to the Soviet High Command." "The German war is, therefore, at an end." "But let us not forget for a moment..." "I think it's time the guards came into the factory." "...Japan, with all her treachery and greed..." "The unconditional surrender of Germany has just been announced." "At midnight tonight, the war is over." "Tomorrow you'll begin the process of looking for survivors of your families." "In most cases, you won't find them." "After six long years of murder victims are being mourned throughout the world." "We've survived." "Many of you have come up to me and thanked me." "Thank yourselves." "Thank your fearless Stern and others among you who worried about you and faced death at every moment." "I'm a member of the Nazi party." "I'm a munitions manufacturer." "I'm a profiteer of slave labour." "I am a criminal." "At midnight you'll be free, and I'll be hunted." "I shall remain with you until five minutes after midnight after which time, and I hope you'll forgive me I have to flee." "I know you have received orders from our commandant which he has received from his superiors to dispose of the population of this camp." "Now would be the time to do it." "Here they are, they're all here." "This is your opportunity." "Or you could leave and return to your families as men instead of murderers." "In memory of the countless victims among your people I ask us to observe three minutes of silence." " Thank you, Mr. Jereth." " Thank you, Mr. Jereth." "Open wide." "Thank you, Mr. Jereth." "Thank you, Mr. Jereth!" "As soon as peace occurs, I want um, I want that cloth distributed to the workers." "Two and a half metres each." "Also, each person is to get a bottle of vodka." "They won't drink it." "They know its value." "Likewise those Egipshi cigarettes we organized." "It'll be done." "Everything you ask." "We've written a letter, trying to explain things in case you are captured." "Every worker has signed it." "Thank you!" "It is Hebrew, from the Talmud." "It says: "Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire. "" "I could have got more out." "I could have got more." "I don't know." "If I just..." "I could have got more." "Oskar, there are 1,100 people who are alive because of you." "Look at them." "If I'd made more money..." "I threw away so much money." "You have no idea." "If I had just..." "There will be generations because of what you did." "I didn't do enough." "You did so much." "This car Goeth would've bought this car." "Why did I keep the car?" "Ten people right there." "Ten people." "Ten more people." "This pin two people." "This is gold." "Two more people." "He would have given me two for it, at least one." "He would have given me one, one more." "One more person." "A person, Stern, for this!" "I could have gotten one more person and I didn't." "And I, I didn't!" "You have been liberated by the Soviet Army!" "Have you been in Poland?" "I just came from Poland." "Are there any Jews left?" "Where should we go?" "Don't go east, that's for sure." "They hate you there." "I wouldn't go west either, if I were you." "We could use some food." "Isn't there a town over there?" "as clear as wine, the wind is flying among the dreamy pines as evening light is slowly dying and a lonely bell still chimes so many songs, so many stories the stony hills recall..." "around her heart my city carries yerushalaim all of gold yerushalaim, bronze and light within my heart I shall treasure your song and sight yerushalaim all of gold yerushalaim, bronze and light within my heart I shall treasure your song and sight" "Long live, Hitler!" "alas, the dry wells and fountains forgotten market-day the sound of horn from temple's mountain no longer calls to pray the rocky caves at night are haunted by sounds of long ago when we were going to the jordan by way of jericho." "yerushalaim all of gold yerushalaim, bronze and light within my heart I shall treasure your song and sight." "yerushalaim all of gold yerushalaim, bronze and light within my heart I shall treasure your song and sight."
