,Joe Alwyn spoke to The Hollywood Reporter about his newest movie 'The Brutalist' 🤍 Joe first read the script for Brady Corbet‘s 3.5-hour epic five years ago, the pair met for coffee in New York. “I was such a fan of Brady and such a fan of the script. It was this big, rigorous, detailed, old-fashioned epic.” – Joe told THR.
'The Brutalist' now in Cinemas, earned seven Golden Globe nominations and plenty of Oscar buzz. Corbet and his cast have built a masterpiece of cinema. Joe playes the role of 'Henry', and the dynamic between Henry and his father (Guy Pearce) is fraught with tension: a son desperate to find a place in his family and earn love from his father, who brazenly overlooks him. They live in a vast home and look down upon the immigrants now in their lives, despite the welcoming facade. “He has enough power and the money around him, but probably not enough love, I was interested in what that does to you, and how that can stunt you.” – Joe says to THR about his character.

,🎼 Song: How Did It End?
🎶 Lyrics: “Lost the game of chance, what are the chances?”
🎵 Meaning:
* The Role of Fate and Irony in Heartbreak:
• “Lost the game of chance”: This metaphor suggests that the relationship was akin to gambling—a risky endeavor where outcomes are uncertain. Losing the “game of chance” highlights the narrator’s acceptance that the relationship failed, despite their hopes or efforts. It underscores the unpredictable nature of love, where luck and circumstances often dictate the outcome as much as intention or effort.
• “What are the chances?”: This rhetorical question conveys irony and disbelief. It questions the improbability of their love both forming and failing, emphasizing how rare and unfortunate the circumstances feel. It also reflects a sense of frustration or resignation, as though the narrator is marveling at how fate seems to work against them.
Together, these lyrics reflect the narrator’s struggle to reconcile the randomness and inevitability of loss in relationships. It captures the bittersweet realization that, despite the odds being stacked against them, they still dared to hope—and now must grapple with the consequences of that gamble.
