ARCHITECTURE AND FILM

Edited by Mark Lamster

Architecture and Film looks at the ways architecture and architects are treated on screen and, conversely, how these depictions filter and shape the ways we understand the built environment. It also examines the significant effect that the film industry has had on the American public's perception of urban, suburban, and rural spaces. Contributors to this collection of essays come from a wide range of disciplines. Included are essays by Nancy Levinson from Harvard Design Magazine; Eric Rosenberg from Tufts University; Joseph Rosa, curator at the National Building Museum; and I.D. Magazine writer Peter Hall. The collection also includes the voices of those from within the film industry.
