Summary: TVC 478.5: Golden Globe Award-winning actor/director Richard Benjamin discusses some of the films that he has helmed (including My Favorite Year, The Money Pit, and Mermaids); why he takes his “director’s hat” off whenever he acts in a film; and the word of advice that Carl Reiner gave him when it came to casting My Favorite Year. Richard Benjamin and Dyan Cannon appeared at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood on Sunday, January 26 following a special screening of The Last of Sheila (1973), the clever murder mystery also starring James Mason, James Coburn, and Raquel Welch that has also been cited as the inspiration for the contemporary whodunit Knives Out.
