Guy Pearce Connects His ‘Brutalist’ Character with Trump & Defends Runtime
This season, one of the numerous award contenders is “The Brutalist,” an epic 215-minute movie produced by A24, directed and written by Brady Corbet. The film focuses on refugee life during the post-World War II era. Adrien Brody could potentially lead the cast in the title role (László Tóth), but the critically acclaimed production boasts impressive performances from its supporting actors too. Notable among these is Guy Pearce, known for his work in “Memento,” who portrays Harrison, a self-aggrandizing and extremely wealthy industrialist in post-war America. MovieWeb had an opportunity to interview Pearce in Los Angeles to delve deeper into his compelling character from the buzzworthy film.
