Brad Pitt interview - Ad Astra, Fight Club, Fincher, Once Upon a Time, Butch Cassidy

[@Malcolmdeeb]

This is the best interview I've seen of Brad Pitt. He was given the chance to express his love of cinema, and he showed a genuine appreciation for the process of film making and - particularly enjoyable - an affection for the films he's been in and the characters he's played. This one's a gem.

[@Rubylove48]

He’s so introverted and thoughtful, he needs time and space and deeper questions...think and talk about, as he said, ‘the complexities’. Agreed.

[@cleverusername9369]

You're absolutely right, and I'd add that it's refreshing and enlightening listening to Brad talk, he's surprisingly humble, intelligent, deep, and articulate. Speaks to his talent as an actor, that it's surprising when you just hear him being him. He doesn't do a lot of interviews, mostly silly fun comedy bits, but when he does interviews like this, it's riveting. Especially with such a good interviewer. Mad respect for Brad, and for the interviewer (I didn't catch his name).

[@Mmxxaamm]

Read his GQ Mag interview, quite good too

[@3hooks781]

Check out his interview with Todd Phillips and Joaquin Phoenix for Joker. Super informed and engaging. He should have his own show.

[@AGD_27]

It's been said Brad Pitt is a character actor cursed with movie star good looks and I agree. I think he's often treated like a one dimensional leading man but he is talented enough to do much more complex characters.

[@KienDLuu]

This interviewer is the best. He always asks the most interesting questions and gets the celeb to open up. He geeks out but never panders to the celeb. Love it

[@iamBlackGambit]

Ali plumb is amazing too

[@Rubylove48]

Thanks to the interview for paying Brad a sincere compliment about his craft. This man is so underrated as an actor because he is so good looking and so humble.

[@jayceegee258]

Plus it seems like every role he takes, ends up being some of the best films ever I cant even think...has Brad pit ever been in a bad movie?

@@michaelgreene4816 well yes and no at the same time no body needs to be at brads level but you cant really make it on hollywood if you're ugly like even adam sandlers an ugly guy he isnt as great as brad in acting but you get what i mean, all the a-list actors and actresses are good looking to a point even if they're bald, overweight they have charisma also look at christian bale he is really handsome yet he is really good at turning himself ugly,disgustingly underweight and then again to an overweight bald guy in american hustle so no you dont have to be good looking but good looking people or people with charisma in general are always a step ahead sadly thats how it works

Kevin McCarthy always is so good in these kind of interviews. Actors and directors who are tired of just doing interviews all day, sometimes for days in a row really start to glow up and want to galk to him because he is genuinely interested, with a love for the craft. This guy really loves and knows film and does not care about their private lives. This leads, for example in this interview, to genuine energy and smilescand even questions from Brad Pitt about other movies that (of course) Kevin knows the answer to. I don't know what he makes, but give this man a raise!

How is he simultaneously a "dude" and also a "wise-but noble" person with a warm presence? This is so different from the Brad Pitt we knew from the 90's.

I genuinely think he's one of the greatest actors of all time too. His performance in The Tree of Life is probably his best. Even in The Counselor, which a lot of people like to forget, he was amazing and memorable in.

I see Brad Pitt having moved into the same league as Robert Redford, Paul Newman, Steve McQueen, amongst a few others. Actors who have really contributed to cinema. I see Matt Damon closely trailing behind entering into this league I really think the best is yet to come from Brad Pitt and his production company. Just movies you really want to get comfortably seated and thoroughly enjoy watching. Finally, his reaction to the sincere compliment.

See this is what an exceptional interviewer does - he genuinely has a passion and his subject can relate to that.

This interviewer is very talented at his craft. He brings out excitement in the celebrities he interviews. I watched Brad in other interviews about this same movie and he wasn't nearly as excited and pulled in when offering his explanations.

[@lordkingston]

Missed the opportunity to ask Brad about his experience working with Robert Redford in Spy Game, after Brad mentioned seeing Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid and how the movie had an impact on him.

[@RC19786]

Spy Game was an under-rated gem, a stroke of genius by the late Tony Scott to cast 2 of the greatest in the industry devoid of "fakeness" in their roles and interviews

[@srdjanvitorovic5795]

It's wierd that Redford directed Pitt's first breakout movie. "A river runs trough it", he was the first to see a star in this man, and yet Pitt is never, or rarely asked about Redford influence on his carrier.

So happy he mentioned that OUATIH scene with Sharon and Roman driving and the light going through her hair during Deep Purple's "Hush," on the radio. One of the greatest scenes ever filmed. BTW, AD Astra is remarkable. Meditative and at points perhaps "slow," but so is a trip to Neptune. Brad Pitt has become my favorite actor working. Fury, Inglorious Bastards, Once Upon A Time In Hollywood and AD Astra are all examples of such nuanced brilliance that how could I not be enamored? From "Cool World," to "Fury?" What a career.
