The Brutalist Wins Three Golden Globes

Brady Corbet's film 'The Brutalist' received significant acclaim at the Golden Globes, winning Best Motion Picture—Drama, Best Director for Corbet, and Best Actor for Adrien Brody, who portrays a Holocaust survivor and architect in post-war America. The film, which runs for three hours and 35 minutes, features an unusual 15-minute intermission, a nod to classic cinema practices. Critics appreciate its ambitious storytelling and strong performances, though some question whether its lengthy runtime is justified. The film was produced on a modest budget of under $10 million and has grossed $1.1 million since its release. 'The Brutalist' premiered at the Venice Film Festival and is set to reach wider audiences in Brazil starting February 20, 2025. The film's exploration of themes related to the American Dream and identity has resonated with viewers, establishing it as a potential contender for the upcoming Oscar nominations.
