Samson Raphealson a screenplay that had cooperation with Ernst Lubitsch several times, like the shop around the corner 1940, trouble in paradise 1932 and  heaven can wait 1943.  Also, the author made a compare between him and O’Neill, to a certain extent, Lubitsch freed him from the literate playwright’s obligation.

I watched two films was directed by Lubitsch and wrote by Samson Raphealson, one is the shop around the corner and the other is heaven can wait. It can be found, he is a talented writer, in the study of the relationship between men and women and for the society reflects the phenomenon can be reflected in characterization. In heaven can wait the idea is so creative in that time such a rare one.

For example, heaven can wait the opening in a unique way, suppose that after people die, to enter into the kingdom of heaven or hell before trial, then launches the explanation of the protagonist’s life, such ideas is still funny nowadays. On the other hand, the shop around the corner is a romantic comedy. Lines written and turning settings; although the quarrelsome lovers of the plot in the later has become conventional weapons in the love comedy, but Lubitsch in on the details of control and grasp of the whole amazing for depicting the hero and heroine; besides colorful characters is really good.
