“I first heard the phrase ‘alienating architectural fad’ in a Jonathan Lethem story, but witnessed its truest definition in filmmakers Gary Burns and Jim Brown’s stellar portrait of suburban self-sabotage Radiant City. The documentary’s unabashed and cutting criticism of sprawl and the sterile stylings that spurred commuter culture and communities of clones culminates in an unexpected and beguiling end note.” – Daedalus Howell
