Sketches of Frank Gehry is a documentary directed by Sydney Pollack about Frank Gehry, an architect famous for designing buildings that look like things you’d see in an art gallery and wonder, “What the hell is this supposed to be?” It’s a straightforward telling of how and why he became an architect. A portrait of an artist / architect. Interesting to see how he works.

Eyes Wide Shut is an artsy-fartsy, weird and pretentious film. I hear you. With Tom Cruise. Yeah, I hear that too. But I still think it’s Kubrick’s best-directed film. And, as with most of his movies, it requires more than a single viewing to fully appreciate it.

I’ve seen all of Kubrick’s films. I’ll eventually post about them as I re-watch them.
