American Gothic
The Devil Queen as effected us in ways we never could have anticipated, for instance the way we watch TV and movies. My wife and I are no longer riveted by the plot, characters, and dialogue alone. We are now compulsively scanning the background for architectural features.
Suspenseful thrillers are punctuated with "Oh, look at that tub!" or "Look at that porch! The gingerbread is gorgeous!" or "how would that color look in our house?"
There is no shortage of architectural gems showcased on film, but here are some of our most recent architectural favorites:
American Gothic (the short lived TV series) - Wilmington, South Carolina.
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil (the book is tons better) - Savannah, Georgia, is an awesome architectural city. Something like 80 movies have been filmed in and around the city.
What Lies Beneath - my wife particularly liked the clawfoot tub.
Of course, since I'm trying to think of some good architecture movies, I start drawing blanks.
So, what are your favorites?
