Adrien Brody gets honest about ‘The Brutalist’
Adrien Brody says he relates to the story of ‘The Brutalist’
For The Brutalist, Adrien Brody won a Golden Globes Award as he reflects on the parallels between the film and his own family.
In the movie, he played the Hungarian architect László Toth in the years after World War II, saying, “I’m very familiar with the immigrant struggles and how the loss and experiences of the past have affected my mother and her work as an artist.”
He continued, “I feel there are many parallels related to László that I can relate to personally.”
The Peaky Blinders also told People that he was over the moon after his parents’ positive reactions to his film.
“My mom will say, ‘Your dad found another one.’ And it’d be a level of not just praise for my work, but a level of respect for the work, my work included,” he said on the Los Angeles premiere.
“And an understanding and analysis of the work and the film that is quite astute and eloquent and thoughtful without any other references or baggage in the mix,” Adrien concluded.
