So much has been said and written about the achievements of Steven
             Spielberg and his brand of cinema, that the moment we hear about a new
             Spielberg film being made, we know what to expect. A high quality action
             movie falling in the genre of science fiction- but when Schindler's List
             came out, it turned out to be visual treat of a different kind. Schindler's
             List was unlike most Spielberg films. And it was this aspect of the film
             that took everyone by surprise and the whole cinema world by storm. A
             holocaust Drama by Steven Spielberg! Since when did Spielberg get
             interested in this genre of movie making' And even if he had actually shown
             interest in history, does he actually know something about capturing
             Schindler's List release in 1993 answered all those questions and silenced
             the critics for once and all. It proved that Spielberg wasn't the king of
             science fiction alone, he was a master movie maker who knows his job well
             and so it doesn't matter which genre he chooses provided he is actually
             interested in it. Schindler's List was a different experience for the
             director, the world of cinematography and film lovers. This wasn't exactly
             due to the storyline, which was indeed superb, or the performance of its
             mostly unknown cast that was indeed perfect but mainly because of its
             cinematography and camera work that was certainly a class apart.
             The movie was made superbly and techniques it used only enhanced the impact
             of a powerful storyline. Instead of opting for certain color palette,
             Spielberg chose to avoid colors completely thereby shooting the entire
             movie in black and white. Prince (2001) maintains that black and white
             movies add to the gravity of the issues conveyed and add a serious touch to
             the film, and this turns out to be absolutely true in the case of
             Schindler's List where black and white gives the movie a 1940s feel. It
             makes the movie look more like a serious documentary,...
