In schindlers list what does the girl in the red coat symbolise ?

Q. I've just watched it
Great movie
But can't understand why the whole film is black and White but this girls coat is red ?

A. This answer is my own opinion and not philosophical.When the red coat first appeared it highlighted the brutality of the rounding up of those targeted by the Nazis. They spared no one, men, women, grandmothers, grandfather,aunts, uncles cousins, and yes even little girls in their best clothes.If I am not mistaken, the red coated girl re appears briefly a few more times. By that time the coat was firmly implanted in Schindler's mind and obviously haunted him, perhaps driving him on. When the little red coat was finally seen a last time it was in a pile of discarded clothing. Maybe the futility of his efforts haunted him but yet he continued.

As far as the black and white filming. Some of the most powerful movies in our time were filmed with colour. It is difficult to do but the resulting effect is a cold forbidding atmosphere. Almost a feeling of doom and hopelessness. Schindler's list viewer knew this wasn't a comedy. The dark nature and ugliness of the events was immediately magnified.The red coat drove the point home. When I first saw the movie in a theatre, there was an audible gasp from the audience when the final image of red was shown. A powerful film, a powerful message and a lesson for what we see around us today.

Guys do you prefer a naturally pretty or a girl who wears tons of makeup but is a little bit prettier?
Q. Would you rather date a girl who is naturally pretty (wears no or little makeup) or a girl who coats on the eyeliner wears tons of makeup but still looks prettier.

A. naturally pretty
then when they complain about not having time to put on makeup, you can compliment them without lying

I need help remembering the title of a book please?
Q. The only part I remember of this book is that a group of teenagers are at a party and this girl coats the inside of a glass with bugspray because she doesn't like this other girl. Well, the wrong girl drinks out of the poisoned glass and she ends up getting kidney failure or something.
Does anyone know what book I'm talking about?

A. Weekend (Point) by Christopher Pike
"Several months after Shani's wealthy best-friend Robin is poisoned at a drunken party given by a mutual friend and left with permanently damaged kidneys, every teen-ager who was at the party is invited to spend a weekend at Robin's family's beach house in Mexico. The weekend of pleasure, however, soon turns into a horribly real cat-and-mouse game as someone causes accidents, cuts the phone wires, and eventually isolates the kids in the remote house. Does someone know who tried to poison Robin? Is the poisoner preparing to strike again? Is someone looking for revenge? Pike's strength is in characterization, and in his ability to write a true young-adult suspenser. No watered-down adult mystery, this honestly engrossing novel about teens on the brink of adulthood is perfect fare for the reader who's past Nancy Drew but not yet ready for Agatha Christie. Parents may object to the heavy drinking scene (although the scene is realistic), to Shani's sexual fantasy, and to the unbelievably offhand attitude of the few adults in the book"
