Re: Holocaust Memorial Day: 'Shocking' levels of denial remain
In 1993 I was working in Poland and went to see Schindler's List at the cinema. You actually had to book seats at all of the multiple cinemas showing it - that was the level of interest.
Anyway, coming out of the cinema, people were muttering about something; my colleague interpreted to me and said that they were complaining about why did the film only focus on Jews and not on the millions of Poles who also suffered.
What were the Jews depicted in the film if not Poles? Anti-Semitism hadn't ended then and I doubt now.
