The Brutalist (18)
Dir. Brady Corbet, UK/US/Hungary, 2024, 215 mins including a 15-minute interval. Some subtitles. Cast. Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones, Guy Pearce.
This monumental drama is an ambitious American epic starring Adrien Brody as a Jewish Hungarian architect who flees Europe at the end of World War II to rebuild his life in an unfamiliar land.
László Tóth arrives in America in 1947 with barely anything to his name, eagerly hoping to soon be joined by his wife Erzsébet from Budapest. Settling in Philadelphia, fate brings the Bauhaus-instructed genius into the orbit of wealthy businessman Harrison Lee Van Buren, whose path to the American Dream leads him to both professional success and personal chaos…
Brody and Corbet both picked up Golden Globes for their work and are frontrunners in their categories for the Oscars®. A towering achievement and a potent examination of the dark connections between capitalism, power, trauma and art, it’s one of our films of the year – and it more than earns its expansive running time. Truly majestic.
