Corbet’s ‘The Brutalist’ Receives Early Praise at Venice Film Festival
Brady Corbet’s new film “The Brutalist” is impressing viewers and critics alike at the Venice Film Festival. The 215-minute historical drama tells the story of an architect and his wife navigating post-World War II America as they rebuild their lives.
Corbet directed and co-wrote the screenplay with Mona Fastvold. At over three hours long, the film includes an overture and intermission, challenging typical runtime norms. However, Corbet believes the story deserves this length. “For me, it’s about how much story there is to tell,” he said.
The movie stars Adrien Brody and Felicity Jones as László and Erzsébet Toth, the architect and his wife. It also features Guy Pearce as a wealthy client who impacts their journey. Brody’s performance in particular is garnering praise, with some predicting it could earn him awards recognition including an Oscar nomination.
