"Unveiling 'Schindler's List': A Masterpiece's Oral History"

As the 30th anniversary of "Schindler's List" approaches, Steven Spielberg and others involved in the film's creation reflect on its significance and impact. Spielberg's journey to bring the story of Oskar Schindler to the screen was marked by challenges, including finding the right script and facing resistance to filming in black-and-white. The film's production was also influenced by rising antisemitism and Holocaust denialism, prompting Spielberg to take on the project as a "mission" to ensure the story was told.
