 Rating: - Continue your education....with more knowledge of Frank Lloyd Wright be you scholar or novice with this great documentary by Ken Burns. Rating: - Everything you wanted to knowHighly detailed and comprehensive telling of Frank lloyd Wright's life and career. Newer research (Death in a Prairie House) told a slightly different sequence re the murders at Taliesin, but otherwise this rendition reflects the best of FLW's biographies and accounts of his life. Found it objective. I'm a visual learner and the photos made the story come "alive." While FLW was very controversial his architecture affirms his genius. Highly recommend this video. Rating: - Review for Frank Lloyd Wright: A Film By Ken Burns and Lynn NovickThe DVD was new, sealed, and was delivered before the forecasted delivery date. It was an excellent film, as far as it went (1914). It would have been helpful if the synopsis in Amazon included that information. I was expecting the film to cover Wright's entire life. I didn't agree with one critic's comment that it detracted from the film to include scathing remarks by Wright's contemporaries/rivals. That only enhanced the viewer's appreciation of his work by emphasizing how much envy he aroused. Rating: - Frank Lloyd WrightKen Burns is a genius! This film was like a great book you can't put down. Totally fascinating. Rating: - A Great Piece on Frank Lloyd WrightThis is an excellent documetary. I highly recommend it for anyone interested in learning more about architecture generally and Frank Lloyd Wright specifically. The material covered is a well done overview of the architecture of the 20th century, as seen through the lens of FLW's life. I found it an amazing tale. There is much to learn about architecture here - the history and scenes are fantastic. From the early days of the skyscraper, to his domestic work (Pairie Houses), to Falling ... Read More |
