Brody's statement
What Brody said about the film
Brody earlier told IndieWire, "The Brutalist begins almost where ['The Pianist'] ended in a way."
"It is a Jewish immigrant's journey, surviving."
"Those specific hardships and loss, and yearning to begin again, and the dream of coming to a place like America — where the myth of the American dream, especially in the '50s — [offers] the hope to be free of that persecution and to somehow maybe begin again."
