  • La Liste De Schindler Synopsis
    thème : Arts ,états, pouvoir. Domaine : art visuel (le cinéma ) La liste de Schindler Synopsis : Oskar Schindler (Liam Neeson ) est un industriel allemand, membre du parti nazi. Ne pensant tout d'abord qu'à son profit, il emploie une main d'œuvre juive bon marché dans son usine. Mais Oskar Schindler ne se rend véritablement compte de l'horreur et la folie nazie qu'en assistant à la liquidation du ghetto de Cracovie par le commandant SS Amon Göth (Ralph Fiennes ), et particulièrement en voyant une petite fille au manteau rouge perdue dans le massacre. Dès lors, il tente avec son comptable Itzhak Stern (Ben Kingsley ), de sauver le plus de vies possibles. Alors que le camp dirigé par Amon Göth reçoit l'ordre de fermer et que des milliers de Juifs doivent alors être transférés à Auschwitz , Schindler décide d'acheter 1 100 de ces hommes pour les « abriter » en les embauchant dans la nouvelle usine d'armes qu'il a ouverte. Il rédige alors la liste contenant les noms de ceux qui seront sauvés. Mais un train de femmes destinées à partir à son usine est détourné vers Auschwitz . Elles échappent de peu à la mort et vont enfin à l'usine de Schindler. Dans cette usine, il interdit aux gardiens tout méfait sur les employés et ira même jusqu'à saboter sa propre marchandise pour qu'elle ne puisse être tirée par les canons. Quelques mois plus tard, la guerre se termine. Oskar Schindler et sa femme quittent le pays car ils sont pourchassés comme criminels de guerre par les alliés, mais pas avant d'avoir dit adieu aux 1 100 Juifs qu'ils ont sauvés et

  • Production Notes
    SINISTER 2 Production Notes Directed by CIARÁN FOY Written by SCOTT DERRICKSON & C. ROBERT CARGILL Produced by JASON BLUM, p.g.a., SCOTT DERRICKSON, p.g.a. SINISTER 2 Synopsis Sinister 2 is the chilling sequel to the 2012 sleeper hit horror movie. In the aftermath of the shocking events in Sinister , the evil spirit of Bughuul continues to spread with frightening intensity. The new story is a scary, suspenseful race against time to save a family from falling prey to the madness, movies, and murder conjured by Bughuul and his foot soldiers, the ghost kids. 9-year-old twins Dylan and Zach Collins (portrayed by real-life brothers Robert and Dartanian Sloan) have been spirited away by their mother Courtney (Shannyn Sossamon of Wayward Pines ) to a rural house in Illinois. The home and property are just isolated enough to evade Courtney’s estranged husband Clint (Lea Coco), who has abused her and Dylan. This protective mother is unaware that the house itself is marked for death… …but Ex-Deputy So & So (James Ransone, reprising his Sinister role), now a private investigator, has deduced that the family’s hideout is the next manifestation spot for Bughuul. Determined to avenge the tragedy he was privy to while on the police force, So & So journeys to the rural residence, intending to burn it to the ground and thereby end Bughuul’s chain of death. Finding Courtney and the twins there, he realizes that they are in danger from Clint and that he must step in to help them before he can implement a plan of attack against Bughuul.
