Fielding (Liam Neeson), who had been instrumental in Mendoza’s path to the priesthood. Some of the natives escape, and move further inward toward the center of South America. The movie, if nothing else, presented the scenario in a perspective that differs from what we learned about in class, showing the events from the perspective of an eventual Jesuit priest, rather than through the lens of Pombaline reform. The movie holds what is now a very noteworthy cast, with Robert De Niro, Liam Neeson, and
Schindler's List is a fictionalized account of a man named Oskar Schindler who lived in German occupied Poland and saved the lives of thousands of Jews.
