Re: Brad Pitt and other actors I wish would get out of movies

Re: Brad Pitt and other actors I wish would get out of movies

Pitt was amazing in Jesse James often we'll have movies about these legendary figures, where the lead just doesn't bring it. Yet Pitt gave a brilliant portrayal as an afflicted man, whose legend...

Re: Current Top Five Favorite Actors

There's a lot of De Niro love here. I assume you all mean for past work because the guy's been phoning it in for over a decade now.
