When Gielgud escorts the little girl to the crematorium and she is reunited with her mother and waves goodbye to him, you see him choke up, then before he goes down inside, he takes one last look at the moon... great cinematography...
Bawled like a baby the first time I saw it. There was another scene with the little girl with the flower, I'll never forget it. Nazis didn't pay nearly enough for their crimes.

I think Spielberg got the idea of the “girl in the red coat” in “Schindler’s List” from that scene. Well, at least Spielberg’s little girl reminded me of the little girl with the flower.
