Brady Corbet’s Masterpiece ‘The Brutalist’ Magnificent Official Trailer

by Alex Billington December 10, 2024Source: YouTube

“My buildings were devised to endure such erosion of the shoreline.” A24 has revealed an amazing second trailer for the extraordinary film The Brutalist, the third feature film directed by acclaimed filmmaker / actor Brady Corbet. It premiered at the 2024 Venice Film Festival where it was instantly regarded as one of the best films of the year – a monumental masterpiece of American cinema about a brilliant architect who emerges from the Holocaust in WWII and resettles in America. I’ve been praising it sine Venice, too! When visionary architect László Toth and his wife Erzsébet flee post-war Europe in 1947 to rebuild their legacy and witness the birth of modern America, their lives are changed forever by a mysterious and extremely wealthy benefactor – a man named Harrison Lee Van Buren Sr. Made by director Brady Corbet, co-written by Brady Corbet & Mona Fastvold, the film stars Adrien Brody as László, Felicity Jones, Guy Pearce, Joe Alwyn, Raffey Cassidy, Stacy Martin, Emma Laird, with Isaach De Bankolé, and Alessandro Nivola. Shot on film and projected on film (both 35mm and 70mm) this is opening in theaters starting in December. I’m one of many who have already been calling this a masterpiece, describing it in my review as a film “we will be celebrating for decades to come.” A must see on the big screen as soon as you get a chance.

Here’s the second official trailer for Brady Corbet’s film The Brutalist, direct from A24’s YouTube:

Escaping post-war Europe, visionary architect László Toth arrives in America to rebuild his life, his work, and his marriage to his wife Erzsébet after being forced apart during wartime by shifting borders and regimes. On his own in a strange new country, László settles in Pennsylvania, where the wealthy and prominent industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren recognizes his talent for building. But power and legacy come at a heavy cost… The Brutalist is directed by acclaimed American actor / filmmaker Brady Corbet, directing his third feature film following the renowned The Childhood of a Leader and Vox Lux previously, plus a few other shorts and music videos. The screenplay is written by Brady Corbet and Mona Fastvold. Produced by Nick Gordon, D.J. Gugenheim, Andrew Lauren, Trevor Matthews, Andrew Morrison, and Brian Young. This initially premiered at the 2024 Venice Film Festival this fall (read our review) where it won the Best Director prize. A24 will debut Brady Corbet’s The Brutalist film in select US theaters (including 70mm projection) starting on December 20th, 2024 at the end of this year. How does it look? Worth a watch?
