Screenplay for A New Kind of Love, written and directed by Melville Shavelson


This 1963 Paramount film took Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward to Paris. A romantic comedy at its core, it is perhaps unsurprising that Steve Sherman (Newman) and Samantha "Sam" Blake (Woodward) would meet on the flight from New York to the City of Light, where each will have the opportunity to reinvent themselves.
