Schindler's List
Schindler's List belongs in your night if you are ready for conflict, danger, and the human consequences of war. It is a patient, deliberately paced watch, with a substantial 195-minute commitment, and the Watch Profile puts attention at 9/10 and emotional impact at 7/10. The signals are strong enough to make this one of the easier calls in the queue.
