I went to see Coppola's Megalopolis, and I found, buried deep inside the convoluted story, strains of an emergent utopia. But as expected, the character of the architect remains locked in the past.
Submit This review to the New Yorker magazine. That should inspire them to hire you. Do you know the 1960 film starring Kirk Douglas as an architect?
it is titled strangers when we meet. That's a fairly straightforward and realistic portrayal of architecture then, admittedly the character was not a star architect.
Another way to interpret Coppala's film megalopolis is as an analogous warning about Trump, who has often said only he can save the country.
Thanks Michael, appreciate the compliment. Im subscribed to the New Yorker, I probably should consider your suggestion. I also looked up the Strangers when we meet. Didn't know this one. i checked out the trailer and found this odd documentary on how the house in the movie was built. I'll take a better look at the film when i have a chance.
