Scope and Contents

Michael Murphy's original screenplay Seance (1966; 0.03 cubic feet) was written for a television episode. It was part of a series but this episode was never produced. Each show was a seance, given by four "distinquished guests," and the specter they attempt to "recall." This episode is about Ernest Hemingway. Throughout the episode the guests converse with Hemingway, asking him questions about his youth and his writing career. The episode ends with a hint at the following week's episode about Ludwig Van Beethoven.
