Like Jason Bourne, this summer’s blockbusters seem to have suffered from a case of cinematic amnesia. Filmmakers resurrected Ghostbusters and The Jungle Book while moviegoers endured a second dose of Independence Day and an impressive fifth helping of Mr. Bourne. Thankfully, New York’s Architecture & Design Film Festival this month promises to screen some original—and architectural—flicks. The annual showcase, now in its eighth edition, will feature a lineup of more than 30 feature-length and short films, all focused on architecture and design.
The festival will kick off with the world premiere of Eero Saarinen: The Architect Who Saw the Future. Directed and produced by Peter Rosen, the film explores the life and work of the Finnish American architect through stunning cinematography (by Saarinen’s own son, Eric) and interviews with a host of experts.
