The United Nations' New York headquarters opened on October 14, 1952. The complex was designed by an architectural board led by Wallace K. Harrison, with input from Oscar Niemeyer and Le Corbusier. The tall building is the Secretariat, which contains offices, and the low building (difficult to see in this photo as it's as white as the ground it sits on) is the General Assembly.

We don't talk enough about how incredible it is that we got THE Dee Wallace on the show. Her and Gregory Harrison managed to make two people who absolute enrage me every time they come on screen but also portray two very human and authentic people. It easily could've been that the Buckley parents were played into this very static, cardboard characters but instead we got two flawed and complex people caught in their grief. You can practically feel the history when they're on screen with JLH and Oliver.

Update on Wallace Harrison
I have made a lot of progress over the last several days and am SO excited to share what I've found so far. After scouring quite literally thousands of records on ancestry.com and newpaper archives, this is what I've managed to learn so far:
Wallace was born in June 1900 in Preston, Lanchashire, and moved to Auckland, NZ when he was around 11.
I did also find his parents and grandfather's names and it turns out he was named after his paternal grandfather!
He lived in California for a while, starting in the 20's.
There, he met Caroline (Carol) Wurtenberger and they got married in 1929.
They lived there until the 40s when they ended up in New York until the 50's. Carol was an art teacher/art professor in both places they lived; Wallace's occupation was listed as "painter" "commercial painter" and "unemployed" through the years.
In 1933, Wallace was shown in an exhibition at the Valentine Gallery. The exhibition catalogue for his pieces was written by writer and friend of his, Maurice Sachs.
A review of this show in the New York Times praises his works and states that the influence of both Matisse and Picasso are evident in his work.
At some point in the 40s, he taught both Helen Frankenthaler and Charlotte Park. Possibly in conjunction with Cooper Union University, though I'm still trying to confirm.
Him and Carol took a trip to England in 1930
In 1954, he left America and headed off for France, arriving in a port in Cannes.
In '56, he left France and moved to Spain. He lived there until his death in 1980 in Palma.
This little project of mine is FAR from over, there's still a million questions plaguing me (who the fuck is henriette!!), but I'm ecstatic that I've been able to even get this much. And there's even bits that aren't super important that I'm leaving out, such as where Carol was from, where she worked, her family, etc. It's very exciting and it really does feel awesome that like this has actually panned out and my efforts have results instead of it being a complete dead end like i was beginning to think.

. - Your sister says you don't have a family. - No, I don't. - She thinks that you ought to get married and have children of your own, instead of trying to be a father to hers. - Yeah. - Except she thinks you are afraid of the responsibility. - That's interesting... anything else? - She thinks you like policing because you think you are right about everything and you're the only one who can do anything, and when you drink a lot of beer you say things like 'none of the other police know a crook from a bag of elbows!'. At least I think that's what she said.
Witness, Peter Weir (1985)

The Quiet Earth (1985)
"We might not have been responsible. God may have just blinked."
"God blinked and the whole world disappeared. A world of noisy, brawling, wonderful human beings."

Witness (1985). While protecting an Amish boy - who is the sole witness to a brutal murder - and his mother, a detective is forced to seek refuge within their community when his own life is threatened.
This is one of my mum's favourite movies, and I still remember her finally deciding I was old enough to watch it with her (when I probably wasn't, haha) and feeling every way this movie sings. And man, it holds up. Peter Weir really is THAT director, an uncanny touch with both the feminine and the masculine, with tenderness and violence, with languid lyricism and brute, effective punctuation. It's kind of insane to me that his body of work isn't given the same bated-breath treatment as some of his contemporaries. Anyway, this might just be a perfect romantic thriller, and far and away Harrison Ford's best work. 9/10.
