Design in Film – The Modern House
Well, here's a jolly wonderful little montage, eight minutes of the best modernist houses in movie, from North by Northwest to The Ice Storm and The Ghost to The Fountainhead.
Lovely to see so many I had loved over the years (Tracy Island!) and lots I'd never seen before (most of which seemed to be designed by Richard Neutra or John Lautner). What becomes clear is the shorthand modernist house is, in blockbusters from Iron Man to Charlie's Angels, for independently wealthy nut-job. Also, reminder: must re-watch LA Confidential!
