A drunk, a spy, a con man, a war criminal recruit... and somehow the only guy in Nazi Germany who said 'you know what, not today' 💀

So basically the Holocaust's most unlikely hero was a drunk, a spy, a cheating con man who couldn't run a farm or tell an otter from a giant rat. Peak résumé.

The film didn't fail to capture Schindler's messiness. Spielberg showed him as a drunk opportunist who stumbled into heroism. Calling it a cleaned up Hollywood version undersells what that movie actually did.
