However,beforeThe Brutalist,Corbet directed three other moviesthat deserve a rewatch after the director’s newfound success.

These movies differ in terms of genre and content, but each has Corbet’s artistic signature.

However, it seems that the wait was worth it, asThe Brutalistcampaigns for ten Academy Awardsthis season.

Images of Eddie Redmayne in Black Death and Anya Taylor-Joy in The Witch are placed in front of a red background.

Though short,Protect You + Meis a great introduction to Corbet’s style.

In just a few minutes, Corbet showcases his unique style and his love for extremes.

His characters do not function on realism as much as epic emotions.

The movie stars Natalie Portman, Jude Law, and Willem Dafoe.

Brady Corbet is releasing another movie in 2025 calledAnn Lee,which follows the founding of the Shakers religion.

Despite its interesting premise,Vox Luxis unfortunately not Corbet’s most lauded movie.

John Wick, Winston, and Marcus

For example, the narration by Dafoe was deemed unnecessary by most viewers.

The movie may not be for everyone, but it is still worth checking out.

The movie is based on a short story of the same name by Jean-Paul Sartre.

Some viewers found the movie to be confusing, irritating, and slow-paced.

Yet, even then,The Childhood of a Leaderis arguably Corbet’s second-best film.

His desires quickly become reality once he becomes close to a wealthy American businessman, Harrison Lee Van Buren.
