Escaping post-war Europe, visionary architect László Toth (Adrien Brody) arrives in America to rebuild his life, his work, and his marriage to his wife Erzsébet (Felicity Jones) after being forced apart during wartime by shifting borders and regimes. On his own in a strange new country, László settles in Pennsylvania, where the wealthy and prominent industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren (Guy Pearce) recognizes his talent for building. But power and legacy come at a heavy cost…. Structurally beautiful and suffused with Adrien Brody’s soulful performance, writer-director Brady Corbet‘s The Brutalist is a towering tribute to the immigrant experience. (R, 3h 35m, includes 15-min. intermission)
“Brody and Pearce vividly manifest Corbet’s arguments about the clash between art and money, between the old world and the new. When they are blazing away on screen together, The Brutalist swells to epic size.” – Richard Lawson, Vanity Fair
“Brady Corbet’s engulfing masterpiece about an immigrant architect (an Oscar-bound Adrien Brody) is the best movie of the year, but it’s also way more than that— an unsentimental; uncompromising thunderbolt of pure cinema that Corbet has built to last” – Peter Travers, ABC News
