Through the selected pages, it is using the department plot as a lens to look at the architecture and film. The occurrence and development of the department links to the process of urbanism. Filmmakers noticed this relationship and tried to present this kind of linkage by film and TV production. For example, the changing relationship between neighbors and the movement in racism drives the movement of urbanism.
Through the way that apartments were presented in films, we could see some stereotype to this kind of modern architecture, and thus, see people’s altitude towards modern architecture in the 20th century. In films at that period, modern architecture was usually stereotyped as cold and distant compared to warm traditional housing. However, as time goes by, we found that modern architecture is not only something transitory or unstable but could also show the monumentality and eternity, for example, Taliesin and Fallingwater by Frank Lloyd Wright etc.
