architecture as metaphor


architecture has a metaphoric existence in almost every film whether it is commercial or art film. sometimes it acts as a backdrop to enhance the dilemma or character of the main players of the film, in others they set the tone of the whole film. in many films this metaphoric connection has added a special montage value to the art of the film. notable few are listed below:
