The last scenes of Schindler's List, when the war ends, and the first thing all the Jewish slave workers do is say Kaddish.... And then when it dissolves to a full-color shot of the actual survivors and the actors coming out of Yad Vashem in Jerusalem, and laying stones on Schindler's grave.... I bawled like beaten child....
