Leave your thoughts about My Architect: A Son's Journey.
| Chicago TribuneMichael WilmingtonMovies today rarely touch chords that are spiritual or deeply emotional, but Nathaniel Kahn's remarkable documentary My Architect: A Son's Journey does both. |
| Baltimore SunMichael SragowA first-person documentary with the subterranean pull of a superb confessional novel. |
| Philadelphia InquirerCarrie RickeyNot only is it the best documentary in a vintage season for nonfiction films (see "American Splendor," "Capturing the Friedmans," and "Spellbound"), it's also one of the best films of the year. It's as lyrical about the particulars of Kahn as it is about the universals of fathers and sons. |
| Christian Science MonitorDavid SterrittObviously a profoundly personal film, but it's also a smartly conducted tour through the world of building and design that Kahn towered over during the most successful phases of his career. |
| Seattle Post-IntelligencerWilliam ArnoldThe journey comes together to be one of the very best of the "in search of" documentaries: open-minded, informative, immaculately crafted, full of moving and highly privileged moments of discovery. |
| VarietyDavid RooneyThis fascinating portrait of an eccentric visionary and his chaotic triple family life is an accomplished, enormously satisfying non-fiction work. |
| Village VoiceLeslie CamhiAn inspired homage to his father's work, and a bracing, bittersweet testament of filial love mixed with pain and compassion. |
| Washington PostBenjamin ForgeyThis is a bittersweet story, no question. But to the son's great credit, what emerges from his patient investigation is a remarkably rich, even sympathetic, portrait of the father. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoThe result is an immensely enjoyable portrait of a strange-looking, non-comforming genius who loved women as much as designing masterpieces but was never able to commit to them. In other words: great architect, lousy family man. |
| Boston GlobeWesley MorrisNathaniel fares well with his father's fellow masters, although Frank Gehry seems evasive. |
