Plus: Sean Baker’s Palme d’Or winning Anora to screen from Boxing Day in 35mm, exclusive to Ritz Cinemas.
Ritz Cinemas, Randwick will be the exclusive location in Australia screening Brady Corbet’s epic, award-winning masterpiece The Brutalist in spectacular 70mm from Thursday 23 January, 2025, with a 70mm preview presentation on Saturday 11 January.
The three-plus-hour epic, directed by Corbet and starring Adrien Brody, was filmed in VistaVision, a high-resolution format with a wider field of view, allowing for enhanced clarity when projected in 70mm. The movie carries 6.5 kilometres of celluloid film, which weighs almost 120 kilograms.
The film follows a visionary architect and Holocaust survivor who attempts to rebuild his life in post-war America. Initially forced to toil in poverty, László soon wins a contract that changes the course of his life.
The film will be screened with an intermission and tickets to 70mm sessions will include a limited edition commemorative collectible brochure showcasing the work of László Toth, the fictional architect played by Brody, who is at the centre of the film, while supplies last.
Tickets are on sale now here.
