The inspiration behind Guy Pearce’s character in The Brutalist

Whether or not Guy Pearce deserves a nomination for best supporting actor is debatable but I do feel like his character was heavily influenced by Carter Pewterschmidt, also known as Lois Griffin’s father, from Family Guy. It was the first thing that I noticed about him when he was introduced; his temblor and cadence. Realistically that probably isn’t the basis of the character but it was impossible for me to look past it in any scene featuring him.
