That Great Inverted Bowl of Darkness
This was the early working title for the PBS "Visions" teleplay "Phantom of the Open Hearth"
In a July 10, 1975 AP story about his PBS work it talks about future projects:
One Is "The Great Inverted Bowl of Darkness," a 90-minute drama he says he's sold to "Visions," a new PBS dramatic anthology series. He says he'll play the lead role. The plot is, ah, unique.
"It's about a guy killed in a car crash," he said. "He goes to heaven and finds a vast film library with billions of films about everybody's life. And everyone who goes to heaven has to find his own film and look at it."
