Amon Göth: Difference between revisions

Line 7:

So terrible was Göth that when Mila Pfefferberg, a surviving Schindler Jew, was introduced to Fiennes while on the set of the film, she began to shake uncontrollably in terror, as Fiennes—while in full SS-Hauptsturmführer uniform—reminded her of the real Göth.

At the end of the film, Göth is shown at his hanging, patting his hair in place and saying "Heil Hitler" just before a Polish soldier kicks the chair out from under him. The film does not depict the execution as it actually happened with Göth's hands tied behind his back, as well as the two unsuccessful attempts at execution. The actual execution did not involve Göth giving the Nazi salute or a Polish soldier kicking a chair out from under his feet, but instead a purpose-built platform.

Göth joined a Nazi youth group at the age of seventeen, moved to a nationalist paramilitary group at the age of nineteen and at the age of twenty two, Göth became a member of the Austrian branch of the Nazi Party.
