It was based on the novel Schindler's Ark by Thomas Keneally, and starred Liam Neeson as Schindler, Ralph Fiennes as Schutzstaffel officer Amon Göth, and Ben Kingsley as Schindler's accountant Itzhak Stern. The film was both a box office success and recipient of seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Score.

No offense to the Raging Bull pick at all, but how THIS film wasn't the first taken in the Black and White category is a mystery to me! One of the greatest films ever made. Top 5 on my list.
