Its stimulated my interest in film from a fresh. new perspective.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Lacks Originality and InsightsBy filmreaderLacks originality. chapters lack internal coherence. and is mostly composed of short. fragmented ideas and blurbs (chapters) of insights from previously published views from film criticism and Art and Film Studies theory. Reads like an assembly of disconnected ideas and topics. Weak analysis of film aesthetics. Outdated view of gender that reads architecture as a dichotomy between masculine/feminine traditional views of gender. symbolized by Freudian "phallicism" that gets transposed onto skyscrapers. Needs overall coherence and increased expertise on how to read a film.
