At the end of big group, we stopped the at the scene where Stern was talking with Schindler for the first time after the liquidation of the ghettos. We also noted a change in relationship when Stern accepted food from Schindler for the first time at this point in the movie. We didn't look to far into this scene because the class ended, but I've been thinking about this change in character.
Either Stern has grown to like Schindler or he feels safer around him. In the former, it would mean that within the short amount of time that they actually have been together, Stern has begun to appreciate Schindler as a character. In the latter, Stern still thinks the same of Schindler, but because of all the SS around and the recent liquidation that occurred to transport them to Krakow, Stern is in a situation where he needs all the help he can get in order survive, and that he is using Schindler for this purpose. I don't know what his exact motivations are, so I decided to post it here to know what you guys think.
