Too long and drawn out but very entertaining with excellent special effects
This is a peculiar play and does not work for me. Some of it is very funny but there are real flaws
Alex has a strong powerful voice and was faultless, she is far better now than she was on the X-Factor

Dir: Sydney Pollack.
Description: Frank Gehry is one of the most celebrated and also enigmatic architects, revered for his visionary designs and inventive use of titanium and glass in buildings such as the Bilbao Guggenheim and the Walt Disney Concert Hall. This documentary attempts to shed light on Gehry's creative process, intercut with interviews with some of his admirers and detractors such as one-time New York Times architecture critic Herbert Muschamp and musician Bob Geldof.
Country: US. 2005. 83mins
Bosom buddies: Frank Gehry and Sydney Pollack
Sydney Pollack is an old friend of Frank Gehry and he chose the great architect of the Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao, as the subject of his first documentary.
It is not an entirely objective study, allowing only one brief voice of dissent among the chorus of praise. But, assuming we know little or nothing about architecture, Pollack provides a fresh and intriguing primer.
There should, perhaps, have been more about the therapist who persuaded Gehry that he wasn't a failure. But otherwise Gehry himself talks eloquently to his friend about what makes him tick and how his work has developed.
The result is a persuasive movie which proves beyond doubt that at least some geniuses are intensely practical as well as intuitive.
