Director Brady Corbet's period drama, The Brutalist, is blazing through awards season. Since releasing in late 2024 in the US (and early 2025 in the UK), The Brutalist has earned an impressive 97% on Rotten Tomatoes. Although it’s one of 2024’s longest movies, with a runtime of 215 minutes, reviews of The Brutalist are overwhelmingly positive. And The Brutalist has some incredible performances; indeed, Adrien Brody has been nominated for Best Actor for his performance as László Tóth. Felicity Jone's performance as László's wife, Erzsébet, also stood out even among the other powerful performances by The Brutalist's cast.
