Rating: B+ -- King Vidor's melodrama about individualism and creativity works better as cinema than as literature (it's based on Rand's novel). Full Review

Rating: B -- It's the kind of dazzling film, shot in a fascinating German Expressionist style, that veers from being silly to being provocative. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- Enjoyable as camp rather than as a manual for living, or even good filmmaking.

Rating: 4/5 -- Soap opera at its finest...and glossy as a skyscraper. Coop and Neal sizzle.

Rating: B -- The Fountainhead is by turns exciting, handsome, astoundingly awkward, fully committed, untowardly relentless, very strange, and a little creepy in its compulsive watchability. Full Review

Description by OLDIES.com:

Architect Howard Roark has heard the voices of safety, convention, compromise. But Roark is a man as unyielding as the mighty structures he builds. And he will sacrifice everything – the woman he loves or the project he dynamites when others interfere with his design – to maintain his individuality in a world of lockstep conformity.
