Was he the inspiration for Howard Roark, architect hero of Rand's \u003ci\u003eThe Fountainhead\u003c\/i\u003e? What can be made of their collaboration on the book's failed 1944 movie adaptation, and what can be gleaned from the 1949 film version of \u003ci\u003eThe Fountainhead\u003c\/i\u003e? Where does harassment by the FBI (Wright was dubbed a communist sympathizer and Rand was called before the House Un-American Activities Committee) fit into the story?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Art, architecture, philosophy, film and politics come together in this book, which relies on the writings of Wright and Rand, FBI files, visual evidence and more to cement their connection. There are set designs and architectural images from the 1949 film; several appendices supplement the text, and a filmography, bibliography and index are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Donald Leslie Johnson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786466146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786466146\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/27\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 243\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Donald Leslie Johnson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45980778889471,"sku":"9780786466146","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_339fd18c-ea1a-47d0-94af-1fea36e57606.jpg?v=1722416714","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-fountainheads-donald-leslie-johnson-9780786466146","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
