Sir Ben Kingsley talks about playing Itzhak Stern in Schindler's List

Sir Ben Kingsley spoke at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum
on March 1, 2011, for a special program devoted to the power of film and the Holocaust. In his conversation with NPR host Scott Simon, he discussed the opportunity to play Itzhak Stern in Schindler's List and working with Steven Spielberg.

"The Power of Film and the Holocaust, An Evening with Sir Ben Kingsley"
was a special event organized by the Washington Next Generation Board
and made possible in part by The A.G. Newmyer III Foundation.

@MissKilman Yes, that makes more sense. Thank you for the correction.

I think he said "That's IN the movie!" at 3:47, not "That's it, the movie" (like it says in the soundtrack). That would make a lot more sense, anyway.
