Just because you don't see the special effects doesn't mean they aren't
there. Most movies made today have some amount of SFX going on, if only to
make a sky more beautiful or to take out rigging or mistakes. Many times
it's cheaper to digitize a scene and have someone paint out a mistake
instead of reshooting it.

Schindler's List certainly was full of effects. I don't remember enough of
or haven't seen the other films.
