Save Brad Pitt, bad."

I felt the same way until I watched Pitt deliver one line in "A River Runs Through It."
"Oh, I'll never leave Montana, brother". I can't describe it, just the way he delivered a simple line, I guess.
Since then he made a believer out of me with Jesse James.
At one time I thought these younger actors couldn't, or wouldn't, stand next to a Burt Lancaster or someone of that stature. I no longer entirely feel that way.

I am speaking of IB and his role in it. He is like a foreign corps in it. He derange.
Bad.

A River...was quite a nice film.
Some have a closed mind regarding Brad. He's been good in several films, including - tinear 16:39:58 07/23/10 (3)
Snatch, Burn after Reading, Benjamin Button, Babel, Jesse James, 12 Monkeys.
Not a bad r�sum� for a Hollywood "pretty boy."
- Best performance, IMHO, Kalifornia ^ - Road Warrior 10:42:14 07/24/10 (2)
  Spoiler :
  
  His performance as a remorseless serial killer, while difficult to watch in some parts, was spot on.
  - Yes, he was great in that. Spoiler. - Tony D. 15:44:01 07/24/10 (0)
    When his character dropped a rock on that car, killed a woman and took her shoes (and gave those shoes to his very young lover) Brad's portrayal of the hollow, psychopathy of Early Grayce was near perfect and I've seen rip offs of his portrayal in a couple other films.
    Pity that Pitt's talents have so often been wasted.

    Yes, he was believable in Kalifornia, not so much in anything else I've seen.
