Director Steven Spielberg reviews A24’s Oscar-nominated film The Zone of Interest. Renowned as the creator of superb entertainments like Jaws, Raiders of the Lost Ark and E.T., Spielberg in 1993 made what he called his first “adult” film with Schindler’s List, a harrowing drama about the Holocaust filmed in artful black-and-white, that went on to win the Oscar for Best Picture, while nabbing Spielberg the prize for Best Director. Now over 30 years later, Jonathan Glazer is vying for the Oscar with his The Zone of Interest, a period drama set against the backdrop of Auschwitz concentration camp.
