Hecht on TV and Movies Shapes Writing Career
Ben Hecht, famed screenwriter, criticizes films as trash yet embraces television as a potential poetry frontier. He describes his new series Dr Pygmalion based on Dr Maxwell Maltz, and outlines a cast of diverse characters from policemen to society figures, exploring inner dreams through love with an offbeat touch. Hecht warns that TV may be stimulating or awful, and rails at movie writers as underpowered, likening himself to a stowaway in the industry.
