Visual Acoustics: Deluxe Edition

Narrated by Dustin Hoffman, Visual Acoustics celebrates the life and career of Julius Shulman, the pioneering architectural photographer whose images brought modern architecture to the American mainstream. Shulman captured the work of nearly every major modern and progressive architect since the 1930s – including Frank Lloyd Wright, Richard Neutra, John Lautner and Frank Gehry. His images epitomised the singular beauty of Southern California's modernist movement and brought its iconic structures to the attention of the general public. This unique, multiple award-winning film is both a testament to the evolution of modern architecture and a joyful portrait of the magnetic, whip-smart gentleman who chronicled it with his unforgettable images.THIS LIMITED EDITION CONTAINS THE FOLLOWING BLU-RAY SPECIAL FEATURES:A FILM FOR LIVING IN - Will Paice and Eric Bricker discuss Julius Shulman and the making of Visual Acoustics.PAICE ON SHULMAN - Will Paice examines Julius Shulman's style and legacy.DELETED SCENES - Nearly four minutes of deleted scenes from Visual Acoustics.ORIGINAL TRAILERARCHIVE: LET'S RAP - In this archive edition of Los Angeles KTTV's discussion show, Julius Shulman debates the impact of economic growth on the environment and community with Gilbert W.
