In a stunning new film, my guest Adrien Brody plays a Hungarian refugee who escapes post war Europe and arrives in the US with dreams of rebuilding his life.
The Brutalist is a multi layered story that runs 3 hours and 35 minutes long with a 15 minute intermission.
And for me, the time flew by.
Directed by Brady Courbet, the film explores the harsh realities of the American dream and it's visually stunning.
Shot on a format known as VistaVision, it's what Alfred Hitchcock used to film north by Northwest.
In Vertigo, Brody portrays a fictional character named Laszlo Toth who settles in Pennsylvania in 1947, where he meets a wealthy industrialist played by Guy Pierce, who recognizes his talent and hires him to create a community center in honor of his mother.
However, the relationship between the two comes at a cost.
The sweeping nature of the Brutalist is reminiscent of Brody's work in the Pianist, where he captivated audiences and the Academy in 2002 with his stirring performance as a Jewish pianist from Warsaw who survived the Holocaust by hiding from the Nazis.
Adrien Brody has been in a slew of films and television shows.
His breakout role was in Spike Lee's 1999 film Summer of Sam.
In 2002, at 29, he became the youngest person to win an Academy Award for best actor.
He's a regular staple in Wes Anderson films, having starred in five of them, including the French dispatch, fantastic Mr.
Fox and the Grand Budapest Hotel.
