Samson Raphaelson on “Creativity with Bill Moyers”
29m
Playwright and screenwriter Samson Raphaelson worked on nine films with director Ernst Lubitsch, including TROUBLE IN PARADISE, THE SHOP AROUND THE CORNER, and HEAVEN CAN WAIT. As critic Richard Corliss said, “In his work with the immortal Ernst, he created a most highly polished and perfectly sustained comedy style.” In this episode of the 1982 PBS series “Creativity with Bill Moyers,” directed by David Grubin, Moyers considers the life of Samson Raphaelson, who continued to write and teach into his eighties.
