Sketches of Frank Gehry


I watched the Sketches of Frank Gehry today on DVD. I was somehow expecting him to be more of a rock star architect but he comes across as very down to earth and often even under confident. He spends a lot of the movie talking about how he stresses over his designs and has to become suitable frustrated with something before he can get it right. You get a good sense of his creative process and approaches by the end. There are also some great quotes from Gehry like 'That is so stupid looking, it's great'. After I was done watching, I immediately ordered a copy on Amazon. You can watch the movie trailer here.
