January 10, 2025 ~ Lucy Ann Lance talks with Perry Seibert with the Michigan Movie Critics Guild for this week's Talking Pictures. “The Brutalist,” directed by Brady Corbett, is a low-budget film with a $10 million budget that spans decades, exploring themes like World War II, the immigrant experience of artistic Jews in post-war America, and drug addiction. Despite its three-hour and 35-minute runtime, which includes a rare 15-minute intermission, the film is praised for balancing epic scope with intimate storytelling, largely through dialogue-heavy scenes between two characters.
