       2010. 
520    Vincent Scully is likely the best-known living art 
       historian in the United States today. Until recently, he 
       was still teaching at his alma mater, Yale University, 
       where a wide variety of students were drawn to his 
       undergraduate history of art and architecture courses. For
       years, Scully's deep engagement with the subject and his 
       passionate presentation style have inspired his students 
       to value these subjects. Many of them have gone on to 
       become prominent architects, historians, or clients of 
       architecture. In his lectures and his more-than-20 books 
       on architecture, Scully's insights are eye-opening and 
       have championed the work of such modern architects as 
       Frank Lloyd Wright, Louis Kahn, Robert Venturi, and Aldo 
       Rossi. He has focused on topics ranging from the American 
       Shingle Style of the late 19th Century, which he 
       identified and named, to a reassessment of Greek temples 
       and their response to the surrounding landscape. The 
       breadth and depth of his knowledge, which includes a close
       familiarity with literature as well as with the visual 
       arts, lends a special richness to his historical 
       interpretations. This film explores the phenomenon of 
       Scully, tracing his connection to New Haven, his 
       birthplace, and his time at Yale, from when he entered as 
       a freshman in 1936 to the present. The narrative follows 
       the arc of his interests in classical art and architecture
       to American architecture, historic preservation, and urban
       design in the 20th Century. A number of architects and 
       former students contribute to this dialogue, including 
       David Childs, Andres Duany, Peter Eisenman, Paul 
       Goldberger, John Hale, David McCullough, Elizabeth Plater-
       Zyberk, Robert A.M. Stern, and Robert Venturi.
