Don’t miss checking off another multi-award winning film off your list just in time for the 2025 Academy Awards, as Ayala Malls Cinemas exclusively brings The Brutalist to the Philippines on March 5. The film has bagged a significant number of awards and nominations, including Best Picture, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and more for the upcoming Academy Awards..
The Brutalist follows Hungarian architect László Toth(Adrien Brody), who escapes a war-torn Europe and arrives in America to rebuild his life and career. His unique and compelling work catches the attention of wealthy industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren(Guy Pearce). So unfolds a story of László navigating his way in a strange new country, gaining prominence which comes at a heavy price. The film has already won Best Picture from the Critics’ Choice Awards and The Golden Globes. Adrien Brody has received Best Actor awards from the BAFTAs, Critics’ Choice Awards, and Golden Globes.
The Guardian praised The Brutalist and its impactfulness, mentioning its superb cinematography and design. They write, “It is an electrifying piece of work, stunningly shot by cinematographer Lol Crawley and superbly designed by Judy Becker. I emerged from this movie light-headed and euphoric, dizzy with rubbernecking at its monumental vastness.”
The Hollywood Reporter calls Adrien Brody’s performance as László Toth his best in years, writing, “Brody has seldom been better, bringing tremendous gravitas but also a pain that gnaws at László’s prideful sense of self, one of purpose and destiny.”
