A Film That’s Winning Big This Awards Season

With multiple nominations for the upcoming Academy Awards, this film is a must-see for cinephiles and awards-season followers alike.

A Story of Art, Ambition, and the Price of Success

The film follows Hungarian architect László Toth (Adrien Brody), who flees a war-torn Europe to rebuild his life and career in America. His visionary designs catch the eye of wealthy industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren (Guy Pearce), setting László on a path of rising fame—but at what cost?

Critics Are Raving About The Brutalist

The Guardian calls it “It is an electrifying piece of work, stunningly shot by cinematographer Lol Crawley and superbly designed by Judy Becker. I emerged from this movie light-headed and euphoric, dizzy with rubbernecking at its monumental vastness.”superbly designed.”

The Hollywood Reporter hails Adrien Brody’s performance, saying, “Brody has seldom been better, bringing tremendous gravitas but also a pain that gnaws at László’s prideful sense of self, one of purpose and destiny.”
