lives: factory employees, classified as essential workers, are exempt(被豁免的)from “resettlement” in concentration camp (俘虏集中营) . Against his better judgment, Schindler learns to look the other way as Stern adds musicians, academics, rabbis (犹太教教士), and cripples (跛子) to the factory rolls (名单). The relationship between Schindler and Stern is developed with enormous subtlety (微妙). At the beginning of the war, Schindler wants only to make money, and at the end he wants only to save “his” Jews. We know that Stern understands this. But there is no moment when Schindler and Stern bluntly (直截了当地) state what is happening, perhaps because to say certain things aloud will result in death. |
