Brady Corbet, Mona Fastvold, Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones, and More on The Brutalist | NYFF62

- Director Brady Corbet, co-writer Mona Fastvold, composer Daniel Blumberg, production designer Judy Becker, and cast members Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones, Alessandro Nivola, Isaach de Bankolé, Emma Laird, and Stacy Martin discuss The Brutalist, a Main Slate selection of the 62nd New York Film Festival, with NYFF Artistic Director Dennis Lim.
In this towering vision from American director Brady Corbet (Vox Lux), an accomplished Hungarian Jewish architect and World War II survivor named László Toth (Adrien Brody) reconstructs his life in America, reconnecting with family in Pennsylvania. While awaiting news of his wife’s relocation from Budapest, fate leads the Bauhaus-instructed genius into the orbit of the volatile Harrison Lee Van Buren (Guy Pearce), an obscenely wealthy captain of industry, who leads him to both professional success and personal chaos. Co-written by Corbet and Mona Fastvold, this richly detailed recreation of postwar America is alternately hopeful and nightmarish in its portrayal of immigrant living, accruing in meaning and power as it builds to its overwhelming final passages. Interweaving a provocative tapestry of ideas around privilege, money, religious identity, architectural aesthetics, and the persistence of historical trauma, The Brutalist is an absorbing, brilliantly acted American epic that reminds us the past is always present. Also starring Felicity Jones, Joe Alwyn, Isaach De Bankolé, Stacy Martin, and Alessandro Nivola. An A24 release.
The Brutalist opens in select theaters on December 20, courtesy of A24.

I couldn't be more proud of Brady Corbet. I remember when he was just a character actor in these great arthouse films, now he's made a timeless masterpiece that's likely going to win many Oscars.
I think they need more people on the panel
I remember watching Brady on the show 24 as a young man playing a kid of Jack Bauer's girlfriend in season 5. Thought he was a good actor but now as a filmmaker possibly winning Oscars...such a great growth to see for him. Bravo.
Exactly ❤
That "path" The Brutalist took in the second half is divisive (and I don't mean the epilogue). It may have compromised the movie for many. However, the way it was presented was masterful and made absolute sense in the totality of the story's theme, spirit and intentions. Could that pivotal incident remain unexplored? I would argue yes but it's inclusion proves that Corbet is an uncompromisingly bold, ambitious cinematic visionary. This epic asks tough questions; what it is to be American, a Capitalist, an artist, a man.
Today's audience's biggest fear is to be bored. The Brutalist's biggest achievement (despite it's length) is that we remain engaged - even after the last reel.
Gleder meg til denne filmen!
🇧🇻
4:52 The interviewers look of regret for asking the director to explain Vistavision.
Hahaha 😆 Meanwhile the rest of us are like 👁👄👁
I've seen a few of this guy's other interviews, he doesn't come across as somebody who is ever really engaged or interested. You can see from this interview alone that he hasn't practiced the questions. Strikes me as an executive type who just wants to rub elbows with famous people.
Malignant you Charles Knowlton 😂😂😂😂
LMAO
It'd be interesting if Brady answered every question as if it were asked in reference to Funny Games 2007. Lol
#FilmatLincolnCenter that monumental movie had so many aesthetic qualities to it . I wonder why Felicity Jones didn't garner any important noms for her GREAT portrayal
A modern take on The Fountainhead on the horizon?
3:50
Adrian took up all the time hahaha
I mean he IS Lászlo Tóth….and so can you!
‘This’ is… & ‘Ayn Rand’ - predictive text 😱
I found the 2nd half rushed & a bit confusing. The time jumps likely caused that feeling. I also wasn't crazy about some of the performances. I found Guy Pearce's dialogue almost wooden. Obviously that was by design, but not sure what the director wanted to get across with that delivery.
agreed, I don't think they quite figured out how to write in that 1940s American vernacular (though I noticed it more with John Alwyn's character). It did seem like they shot a lot more material and then tried to figure out how to make a film out of it- there were certain scenes that felt like they got chopped in half and cut off early. But I think everything came together really well in the epilogue.
me bc I was there 🥳
Mr. Corbet: Why did you give the main character, Laszlo Toth, the same name as the deranged geologist who vandalized Michaelangelo's Pieta in 1972?
I like your question…apparently its a common Hungarian name like john Smith
@@lindakgrace3428 Interesting. Perhaps also they came across the name in their research and liked the association... breaker of traditions.
As a Hungarian I can confirm László Tóth is a very common name
Is the movie going to play commercially in New York City?
it's going to play in select theatres (limited across the country) you need to do some research & if it's not playing anywhere, the theaters might screen it eventually if the movie does well
Opens in theaters beginning December 20!
You should not be asking about NYC of all places lol. If an American film screens anywhere in the world it will play in NYC and LA.
@@timbuktu777exactly New York and LA are the only two places in the world where you can find the most obscure limited films
December 20. Village East or AMC
The guy in the hat is on coke. And that's okay
Actually maybe he's just very nervous. He seems sweet. I'm sorry
@@mattpalmer152 ya can be sweet and on coke says one who never even smoked a cigarette in his boring life 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@mattpalmer152 Saw his interview with Dolby, really talented guy but a touch of nerves.
