A portrait of one of the most daring architects of the 20th century, this film goes far beyond a biographical picture, delving into the relationship between two of America’s most prominent artists and the creative process that connects them. Invited by world renowned architect and friend Frank Gehry to make a film about his work, filmmaker Sydney Pollack expressed that he had never made a documentary and knew very little about architecture. To this, Gehry simply replied, “That’s why you’re perfect.”  Constructed with images of his buildings, interviews with his colleagues and clients, and most importantly, personal conversations with Pollack himself, the film is at once a tribute to Gehry’s genius and an affectionate portrait of two friends. Intimate, layered, and luminous, Sketches of Frank Gehry represents the power of the artistic process and reminds us all of the overwhelming grace of creation. ST
