The Krakow ghetto "liquidation" scene was only a page in the script, but Steven Spielberg turned it into twenty pages and twenty minutes of screentime "based on living witness testimony". For example, the scene in which Leopold Pfefferberg escapes capture by German soldiers by telling them he was ordered to clear the luggage from the street and saluting them was taken directly from his own account.
