Director Brady Corbet has said he made “zero dollars” from his Oscar-nominated movie “The Brutalist” during an interview in which he also highlighted the financial precarity facing many filmmakers.

"The Brutalist" director Brady Corbet said he made "zero dollars" for his last two films and called the film promotion process "crazy."

And he's not alone. "I've spoken to many filmmakers with films nominated this year who can't pay their rent," Corbet said of his fellow Oscar nominees.
