Winter Film Forum: Judgement at Nuremburg

To commemorate the Holocaust and its aftermath, we’ll present two masterpieces of cinema. 
Schindler’s List: Oskar Schindler saved the lives of at least 1,200 Jews who worked in his factories during WWII. Steven Spielberg won Best Picture and Best Director Oscars in 1993 for the film telling this powerful story. 
Judgment at Nuremberg: In 1961, Stanley Kramer directed this postwar story of the trials of the Nazi overlords, told with an all-star cast telling the horrific tales of the death camps and perpetrators of the near extermination of Europe’s Jews. 
These films demonstrate the power of film to bring history alive while uplifting our feelings of ultimate pain and successful defiance. 
Lunch will be provided.
