The Year’s Most Ambitious Movie, ‘The Brutalist,’ Is a Monument to Art, Perseverance, and Legacy
The drama clocks in at more than three and a half hours, with a 15-minute intermission for viewers who could use a break from the cinematic largesse.

Unarguably the most ambitious movie of the year, “The Brutalist” arrives on Wednesday for one night only at AMC Lincoln Square’s IMAX theater, while starting Thursday filmgoers can experience it at additional theaters, with both standard screenings and special 70mm engagements that complement the filmmakers’ use of Vista Vision, a visually crisp, wide-view format first used in “White Christmas.”
