Adrien Brody deserves an Oscar for The Brutalist ...Middle East

We eventually learn that our protagonist, Lazslo Toth, was a respected and innovative modernist architect in his native Hungary before the war (he’s played by an astonishing Adrien Brody, his face as beautifully jagged as the concrete artworks he designs). But we first meet him bruised, traumatised and stalk-thin after a tough journey from Budapest to Ellis Island in New York City, where, like so many Jewish refugees, he hopes a better life will await him in America.

As Lazslo – a piercingly intelligent, mournful man of few words – settles in to his adoptive home, he also has a chance meeting with the wealthy WASP Harrison Van Buren (an imperious Guy Pearce), who integrates the architect into his master plans for a grand civic building. A clash of privilege, sensibility and race creates a distinct sense of unease throughout. Increasingly the two men’s egos and ambitions intertwine and then clash, revealing the cracks of power and society that separate them.
