Leading the pack is “The Brutalist,” a three-and-a-half-hour drama starring Adrien Brody, now available on VOD platforms. Nominated for ten Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Globe critic Odie Henderson praised it as a “throwback to the days when Hollywood made massive epics.” Also hitting VOD is “The Last Showgirl,” featuring a Golden Globe-nominated performance by Pamela Anderson, who delivers a surprising dramatic turn according to Henderson.
