"The Right Stuff"

The US and USSR were alway on competion like for example who was going to send the first man to space, who could fly the fastest airplane. Lets say when the US accomplished something they weren't able or allowed to tell the media. But as the US was trying to hide there inventions Russia has already send the first man into space before the US could. US was so mad and anxious about it that they wanted to make a space shuttle and send a man to space also. All the space shuttles they had done they would either go up a little bit and come back right down they always had failed. As the competion kept going the USSR was ahead and US was behind like always. The US trained about 7 men and a monkey to see if they could make it possible to go to space.Besides the fact that the USSR arleady had acommplished the space competion the US were not the first to send someone to space they was the first ones to send an animal to space and travel and go around the world with the space ship.

"Night and Fog"

The movie "Night and Fog" was a film less violent almost the same thing as "Schindler's List" just alot less violent and didn't look like the jews suffered as much as in the film "Schindler's List" had showed that the jews were going through.This film was a more high class Holocaust this film was better then the documentary itself.Both movies were still very good, dramatic and powerful, making the viewer feeling sorry for the Jews and those many people who had their lives taken at the Holocaust.

"Schindler's List"

The "Schindler's list" illustrated the Holocaust in this film by showing the history of the Nazi's took over the Jews in a very cruel way. The scenes that were most powerful was when the Nazi shot the people with guns, usually shots to the head that was very cold hearted . There was one lady at the working they were building something just because the lady was smart and was a jew they killed her becuase she was telling them the correct way to build it.It crazy how you can be a jew sitiing home living wealthy and in 2 secounds get you family killed and your house taken from you.The scene that stays on my mind forever is when they had all those bodies they had killed and was burning them.
