@canguclu918 you'd think that wd be a no brainer, right? but for reasons I don't really understand the economics of ebooks are similar & tricky...

@canguclu918 we talked about that...if it does well enough to justify a print run, it MIGHT come in a slim novella ed. but, & I should be truthful here, the economics of novellas are so terrible that it's probably unlikely ☹️

@craigarthur_nz *sigh* the film is not about architecture & has no interest in giving a mimetic rep of arch. in the 50s - go watch a documentary for that how is it that all these architects have never seen a movie?

@craigarthur_nz Dude, please send me the rulebook explaining which genres are good for which types of storytelling. Maybe this is where I've been going wrong all these years. Only boring art is mimetic, no? Or are you w Aristotle on this?

@craigarthur_nz I've read lots of stuff like this in the guardian and economist too. The film is not about architecture so the views of architects are irrelevant. Its like saying The Wizard of Oz is about a tornado.

@craigarthur_nz you have wildly misread the film I'm afraid maybe you need think about who or what was "the brutalist"?
