Brad Pitt is an Inglourious Basterd
Brad Pitt works a cock-eyed look in a new set of images has hit the web for Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, which is set to premiere at the Cannes Film Festival next month.
Variety: "The Brad Pitt starrer, set in Nazi-occupied France, has been invited to play in competition at the Cannes Film Festival. Insiders said Tarantino, a longtime favorite of the French, has accepted the offer and has told the film's backers -- the Weinstein Co. and Universal Pictures -- that the pic will be ready for its world premiere during the May fest. The movie, which follows a band of Jewish-American soldiers whose mission is to take down a group of Nazis, will bow Aug. 21."

Oh no, GREY. He is good, was originally a little callow, but always a good actor. Se7en? 12 Monkeys? Kalifornia? Fight Club? Burn After Reading?
More importantly, now his stubble is salt and pepper, he is one hell of a D.I.L.F.!!!

Grey is wrong. Brad Pitt is a fine actor, a friend of the gay community, and GORGEOUS. He has also done heroic work rebuilding homes in New Orleans, working long after the media hounds have gone home.

I've liked Pitt since Thelma & Louise, my problem with this is Tarantino. I guess he thinks since he is going to butcher Nazis his over use of violence will be legit. He is a hack.

brad pitt gets hotter the older he gets. it is not his age but his maturity that quickens my mind and my peter. he has always been on our side.

Wow! What a pathetic little excuse for a moustache and beard. Damn handsome but that is the stubble of the average fourteen year old (in quantity if not color).
Maybe I'm just bitter because I have been shaving daily since the summer before seventh grade. I can grow a four o'clock shadow by noon and was never "carded" after the age of fourteen.

Who cares about the moustache? Doesn't anyone find the theme and images of the film - with an American Jew taking a baseball bat to a German soldier's head - sadistic and hateful? Do we really need to ingest 'a little of the old ultra-violence' as a form of entertainment?

"heroic" is what each and every person is who can sit through that crappy southern accent and not fart

@GREG,
if you were a jew in that time, would you not be more than a little bit upset?
@BLOKRWaY,
i'll reserve judgment until i see the film. meanwhile, keep your fetid, gaseous effluvience to yourself.
