The Brutalist with Felicty Jones and Guy Pearce | Picturehouse

Hope Hopkinson speaks to Academy Award nominees Felicty Jones and Guy Pearce about their work on Brady Corbet's momumental new film, The Brutalist.

Nominated for 10 awards, including Best Picture at this year's Oscars and in cinemas now (including 70mm presentations at Picturehouse Central in London).

Escaping post-war Europe in 1947, visionary architect László Toth (Adrien Brody) arrives in America to rebuild his life, his career, and his marriage. On his own in a strange new country, Toth settles in Pennsylvania, where the wealthy and prominent industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren (Guy Pearce) recognises his talent. Van Buren enlists Toth to build a monumental new project – but creative power comes with a dark cost, as the architect sacrifices more and more of himself to complete his exacting vision.
