"It’s not just that they don’t make movies like this anymore — of course they don’t! — so much as no one bothers to tell these types of sprawling narratives with this level of storytelling, chops, nerve and verve." - David Fear, Rolling Stone Join Elihu Rubin, architectural historian and Henry Hart Rice Associate Professor of Architecture and Urban Studies at the Yale School of Architecture, for a discussion about The Brutalist following the 1:30 pm screening on February 2nd.
Escaping post-war Europe, visionary architect László Tóth arrives in America to rebuild his life, his work, and his marriage to his wife Erzsébet after being forced apart during wartime by shifting borders and regimes. On his own in a strange new country, László settles in Pennsylvania, where the wealthy and prominent industrialist Harrison Lee Van Buren recognizes his talent for building. But power and legacy come at a heavy cost.The Brutalist showing at: January 24, 1:30 pm
