518    Originally produced by Whitecap Films in 2010. 
520    Louis H. Sullivan (1856-1924) was one of the most 
       celebrated architects to come out of the Chicago School of
       architecture in the late 1800s. He is often called the 
       “father of the skyscraper” and the “prophet of modern 
       architecture.” Sullivan also coined the most famous phrase
       ever to come out of his profession, “form ever follows 
       function.” This award-winning documentary is not simply 
       the first film on Sullivan, but the first time a filmmaker
       has presented architecture in the broader context of 
       American social, political and cultural history. It 
       combines stunning photography, insightful commentary from 
       Sullivan scholars and experts, and a brisk narrative that 
       will guide the viewer through the life of an artist who, 
       for a brief moment in his thirties, was among the most 
       celebrated builders in the United States. His works that 
       survive are recognized by architects and critics as among 
       the most beautiful buildings in the world. Despite his 
       early success, Sullivan was bitterly opposed to the 
       fashionable imitation of European styles of architecture 
       that was all the rage between 1890 and 1930. This 
       opposition eventually consigned him to the margins of his 
       profession, and he was barely able to scratch out of a 
       living for most of his life. Yet he exerted an enormous 
       influence on younger architects, in particular Frank Lloyd
       Wright, who worked for Sullivan for seven years. Even 
       after their bitter split in the 1890s, Wright ever after 
       referred to Sullivan as the “beloved master.”
