Reyner Banham Loves Los Angeles

The title of this 1972 documentary won't really come as much of a shock to anyone who's read Reyner Banham's Architecture of the Four Ecologies. But Julian Cooper's film is incredibly funny and quirky, making the most of pitting the eccentric English professor against the scorched, sunny and at times, abruptly sexy backdrop of Los Angeles. A wonderful documentary, and a treasure brought to us by the amazing UbuWeb, a resource of endless delights, but which is now on Vimeo too.
