Born Jewish, each was commissioned to construct giant Christian buildings in remote parts of the United States that become their masterpieces.</p><p>Corbet has said a book about Breuer's work on Saint John's Abbey, in rural Minnesota, was a key inspiration for the film.</p><p>Breuer is also known for designing parts of Paris's UNESCO headquarters, New York's Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Pirelli Tire Building in Connecticut.</p><p>- What is brutalism? -</p> <div class="media-image"> <div class="media-image__container"> <img class="media-image__image responsive-img" src="https://stock.rtl.lu/rtl/768/rtl2008.lu/nt/p/2025/02/21/07/21a22b59401970a7a2300fd0e7437f24.jpeg" loading="lazy" alt="RTL"/> </div> <p class="media-image__summary"> The original Liberty Savings and Loan building -- now Chase -- in Los Angeles, designed by architect Kurt Meyer and completed in 1966, is an example of Brutalist architecture / © AFP </p> </div> <p>Brutalism is a polarizing design style that emerged in the 1950s post-war reconstruction of Europe.</p><p>It is recognizable for its exposed, unembellished concrete, and giant, bold geometric forms.</p><p>The term is believed to come from "beton brut," French for raw concrete.</p><p>Surprisingly, almost no Brutalist architecture appears in "The Brutalist" -- until we glimpse Toth's completed masterpiece at the end of the three-and-a-half-hour film.</p><p>In a podcast episode entitled "Why The Brutalist is a Terrible Movie," design critic Alexandra Lange said the filmmakers "say they read all these books on Brutalism, but absolutely none of that is used to any dramatic purpose or really seems to have been absorbed."</p><p>Victoria Young, a professor at the University of St Thomas, told AFP that the building we see at the end is not even Brutalist, but early modernist.</p><p>"I'm like, 'You're kind of missing the whole timeline here," she said.</p><p>- What about the timeline? -</p><p>Experts have pointed out other ways in which the film distorts history.</p><p>In the film, Toth is a Holocaust survivor who struggles for work and queues for free bread on arrival in post-war America, before his talents are eventually spotted by a wealthy benefactor.</p><p>In reality, Bauhaus alumni like Breuer and Walter Gropius crossed the Atlantic in the 1930s, before the war. They arrived as globally famous professionals, welcomed into prestigious posts at places like Harvard University.</p><p>Modernist architecture was deeply established and fashionable in the United States long before the film's setting.</p><p>"As an architectural historian, my head is still spinning apart from watching that movie," said Young.</p><p>Toth is presented as a devoutly religious heroin addict. Breuer was sober and secular.</p><p>- Any other controversies? -</p><p>"The Brutalist" editor David Jancso said artificial intelligence was used to make renderings of Toth's buildings and blueprints. (AI, which is both increasingly used and loathed by many in Hollywood, also sharpened up the actors' Hungarian accents.)</p><p>Corbet swiftly clarified the blueprint designs were hand-drawn.</p><p>But he said the technology was used to create "intentionally... poor digital renderings circa 1980" for the movie's epilogue.</p><p>- Will it matter? -</p><p>"The Brutalist" is a frontrunner for best picture.</p><p>And the criticisms of it pale in comparison to the storm surrounding "Emilia Perez," over its star's offensive social media posts.</p><p>Robert McCarter, architect and author of monograph "Breuer," said the film's occasional historical distortion "doesn't bother me."</p><p>"They're just using his biography conveniently... I think it's fine," he told AFP.</p><p>What of the monks who pray each day in Saint John's Abbey, the movie's supposed inspiration?</p><p>Alan Reed admitted the supposed Brutalism of the film's title reminds him of "Russian modern buildings... that look like gun parapets" or "a bunch of boxes piled up," rather than his extraordinary church.</p><p>Still, he said, his fellow monks are "quite excited" by the extra attention their home is receiving.</p></div> </div> <div class="article__toolbox article-toolbox app-hide"> <div class="socialbar is-sticky"> <div class="socialbar__item"> <a
