Adrien Brody took home the award for best actor at the Oscars for his performance in "The Brutalist", fending off Ralph Fiennes ("Conclave"), Sebastian Stan ("The Apprentice"), Timothee Chalamet ("A Complete Unknown") and Colman Domingo ("Sing Sing").

The Brutalist follows a Holocaust survivor and architect named László Tóth, a character so well-written (and well-acted by Adrien Brody, who won an Oscar for his performance) that many audience members entered its much-discussed intermission thinking it was a biopic.

Twenty-two years after winning best actor for “The Pianist,” Adrien Brody won the same Oscar again for his performance as another Holocaust survivor in Brady Corbet’s “The Brutalist." He somehow kept the playoff music at bay.

Post staffers Naveen Kumar and Allie Caren explore the merits of the Best Picture-nominated film “The Brutalist,” starring Adrien Brody, Felicity Jones and Guy Pearce.

Brody, 51, took to the stage at Dolby Theatre Sunday night to accept the Best Actor Oscar for his leading role in “The Brutalist.”

He returned to the podium more than 20 years after 'The Pianist,' but this time had a new perspective on a career that "can all go away."

Brody's lengthy acceptance speech on Sunday night beats the record of 5 minutes and 30 seconds held by Greer Garson, according to Guinness World Records, when she won for 'Mrs. Miniver' in 1943.

The Brutalist' star Adrien Brody addressed his Oscars speech, which broke the record for the longest in history, with a brief (yes, for real) video.

Adrien Brody reportedly broke a record on Sunday by delivering the longest acceptance speech in the history of the Academy Awards.

In 2003, Adrien became the youngest-ever Best Actor winner for his role in The Pianist. And on Sunday, he was named Best Actor for a second time in his career for The Brutalist — this time, making history with the extreme length of his acceptance speech.

Best Actor winner Brody has been dating Weinstein's ex-wife Georgina Chapman for roughly five years after they were first linked in 2019
