The Brutalist 4K Ultra HD + Blu-Ray (US Edition)

The Brutalist (2024), directed by Brady Corbet and starring Adrien Brody, is a sweeping historical drama that follows Hungarian-Jewish architect László Tóth, a Holocaust survivor who emigrates to America in 1947 in search of a new beginning. Arriving in Pennsylvania, László struggles with low-paying jobs until he is noticed by powerful industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren (Guy Pearce), who commissions him to design a community center. This opportunity launches László’s architectural career but also entangles him in a complex web of power, artistic compromise, and emotional trauma.

Spanning several decades, the film explores the tension between creative ambition and capitalist constraints, as well as the lingering psychological effects of war and exile. László’s personal journey is deeply marked by survivor’s guilt, cultural dislocation, and the ethical dilemmas of working within elite patronage. The film’s visuals, shot in VistaVision, reflect its architectural themes with precision and grandeur.

Premiering at the Venice Film Festival, The Brutalist received widespread acclaim. Corbet won the Silver Lion for Best Direction, and Brody earned accolades for his nuanced performance. With its intellectual depth and visual sophistication, the film is a meditation on identity, memory, and the often-painful cost of rebuilding a life.
