“The Brutalist” won some of the top prizes at Sunday night’s Golden Globes, taking home the awards for best drama, best director and best actor in a drama. But it is exceptionally difficult for people to watch the story of the fictional Hungarian architect László Tóth, played by Adrien Brody, who tries to realize his grand vision in postwar America.

Other contenders this awards season, like Netflix’s “Emilia Pérez,” which won several Golden Globes, have comfortable homes on streaming services for audiences to watch at their leisure. “The Brutalist,” which is distributed by A24 and has a three-and-a-half-hour run time (including a 15-minute onscreen intermission), is accessible only in a few theaters.

The movie will not release nationwide until Jan. 17 before expanding to a wider release on Jan. 24, said a person with knowledge of A24’s distribution plans.

Where can I watch ‘The Brutalist’?

If you don’t live in Los Angeles or New York, your chances of seeing the film before then are, well, brutal.

Even in those cities, which often have theatrical releases before the rest of the country, the options to watch are limited. Screenings are currently scheduled at three theaters in New York and five in Los Angeles.

You may find some luck at art house cinemas across the country. Viewers in Doylestown, Pa., a major setting in “The Brutalist,” can drive to Philadelphia for two screening options at art houses.
