The New York–based architect talks to RECORD about his earliest movie memories, the intersection between architecture and cinema, and why everyone—but especially architects—should know and study film.
Directed and co-written by Brady Corbet, the 215-minute cinematic epic of midcentury America treats the discipline of architecture with immense seriousness and humanity.
A September 25th screening of the documentary during New York’s Architecture & Design Film Festival will include a filmmaker Q&A moderated by RECORD contributing editor Cliff Pearson.
The film, which premiered November 25 on PBS, follows architects, scientists, and engineers as they assess the damage, investigate solutions, and plot how to resurrect the world’s most famous church.
