Director of Photography Lol Crawley uses his unique perspective to discuss his Oscar-winning work on The Brutalist. A 10-year friendship, Crawley shares how his trusting relationship with Brady Corbet created a collaborative and creative environment on set, noting the importance of aligning with a director's vision rather than overpowering it. He dives deep into the artistic inspiration of the film, explaining how it was designed to feel like an archive with a patchwork quality, balancing historical accuracy with artistic interpretation. While using many different kinds of cameras made the shoot more complex, we learn how these risks contributed to the aesthetic and emotion of the film, earning Crawley the Oscar win.
