Architects in the Movies

In October, the Turner Classic Movies channel presented series of films about architects: 'The Fountainhead' starring Gary Cooper and 'The Towering Inferno' starring Steve McQueen, to name a few. Of course, there are more recent films such as 'Indecent Proposal' (Woody Harrelson) and 'Intersection' (Richard Gere). What do you think of the way films portray architects? Are the portrayals more or less interesting and glamorous than real life? Who's your favorite architect of the movies?

Hi
Hollywood loves the characters who can inspire trust and vision. An architect is perfect when you need a character who is creative and stable.
I would rather call them :
'a rock star with a pen behind his year'
As for me I don't have a favourite architect:)
