So, 'Philip Johnson: Diary of an Eccentric Architect' is a fascinating dive into the mind of one of the more controversial figures in architecture. The film really captures Johnson's process and his unique approach to blending structures with nature, like how the changing seasons in New Canaan influence his work. The pacing is reflective, almost meditative, allowing you to soak in the details of his designs and the way they interact with their surroundings. There's a rawness to the documentary; it feels intimate and personal, almost like you’re privy to a private conversation with Johnson about his philosophy and vision. It’s not just about seeing buildings but understanding the thought behind them, which really sets it apart.
