Schindler's List is one of Steven Spielberg's finest films, but it could have been much different, as Martin Scorsese was once attached to direct.
1993 is inarguably one of the best years in Steven Spielberg's career. Rebounding from the now beloved but at the time disappointing Hook, he broke new grounds with special effects and entertainment with the summer blockbuster Jurassic Park, only to end the year with another film that was both his critical and personal apex Schindler's List. But that almost didn't happen.
During the course of its development, Spielberg met with several directors about making Schindler's List. McBride's biography reports of Spielberg talking with two famed filmmakers who had direct ties to the Holocaust, Billy Wilder and criminal Roman Polanski. Wilder, who left Austria in the early 1930s, lost much of his family to the concentration camps and considered the film as a possible tribute to their memory.
"I was concerned that I wouldn’t be able to do justice to the situation." In a recent interview with Deadline, while premiering Killers of the Flower Moon, Scorsese discussed his initial involvement with Schindler's. "I was about to direct it. But I had reservations at a certain point." In the late '80s, Scorsese was coming off of a personal passion film of his The Last Temptation of Christ, but his passion was met with controversy and it began to take a toll on him.
