Loving Frank November 23, 2008

After reading Loving Frank in my book club, I just had to get more info on this guy. People told me I had missed a PBS story on him. I knew how to fix that. What an interesting tragic guy. A genius, but an arrogant son of a gun.

with more knowledge of Frank Lloyd Wright be you scholar or novice with this great documentary by Ken Burns.
Everything you wanted to know May 18, 2008
Highly 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.
Review for Frank Lloyd Wright: A Film By Ken Burns and Lynn Novick May 15, 2008

The 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.
