Frederic Raphael

Frederic Raphael ( born August 14, 1931 in Chicago, Illinois) is an American screenwriter.

In 1965 he was awarded for his performance in the John Schlesinger film Darling ( Julie Christie ) won the Oscar. Frederic Raphael worked with Stanley Kubrick almost two years from Arthur Schnitzler fabric to transform the dream The novella into a screenplay that was Kubrick's aspiration. Kubrick wanted to bring this story 30 years earlier to the big screen, but constantly pulled other projects before and thought the time was not yet ripe for this. The perfectionist Kubrick demanded Raphael from many versions of the screenplay before he zufriedengab with the ultimate cinema version to Eyes wide shut.

Christiane Kubrick, the widow of Stanley Kubrick, distanced himself in 1999 by Frederic Raphael's book Eyes Wide Open - A close up of Stanley Kubrick in which Raphael reports on the making of the film Eyes Wide Shut, and gave him a breach of trust and denigration of her late husband before.
