Saul Bass On Why Man Creates

And you thought Saul Bass only made film titles. Here’s a clip of the 1968 Oscar-winning short film Why Man Creates, directed by Bass and his wife Elaine. Apparently the entire 29-minute film is available, but very expensive to procure.

Update: Our friend Christopher Simmons writes to remind us of this: “Saul Bass often gets credit full credit for Why Man Creates, though it was written by Mayo Simon.”
