EP. 31 — Schindler’s List

This week Paul & Amy take a close look at Steven Spielberg’s unflinching Holocaust drama “Schindler’s List.” They discuss the filmmaking instincts Spielberg brings to difficult material, praise Ralph Fiennes’ terrifying performance, and discover the crucial role Adam Sandler played in keeping Spielberg’s mood up. Plus: Embeth Davidtz (who plays Helen Hirsch) calls in to talk about the unlikely family formed on set.
