Angie’s said her peace and Jennifer threw in her two cents. Now it’s Brad and his guido-stache’s turn to speak. Brad Pitt opens up to Rolling Stone magazine about his new film “The Case of Benjamin Button”, fame and life with six rug rats. Here are some of the highlights:
His Excuse For Having Only A Few Really Successful Flicks:
I got lost in the wilderness of fame a bit. There are all of these opportunities you’re supposed to be taking. And I got really discombobulated.
On What Drives Him Crazy:
I get enraged when people start telling other people how to live their lives. It drives me mental. This Prop. 8 thing just drives me mental.
On The Election:
I went down to Grant Park (Chicago), because I was doing Oprah the next day. I walked home from the park to the hotel, which was a half-hour walk. And I could walk freely — no one was interested in me at that point. People were weeping and hugging. The sense of elation in the streets — it was great. That was such a turnaround for us. We captured the original definition of America again.
On His Favorite Action Flick:
Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Because you know… six kids. Because I fell in love.
On Why He Thinks Fighting Is Overrated:
Angie and I do not fight anymore.
What occurred to me on this film, and also with the passing of her mother [actress Marcheline Bertrand in 2007], is that there’s going to come a time when I’m not going to get to be with this person anymore.
I’m not going to get to be with my children anymore. Or friends, people I love and respect. And so, if we have a flare-up, it evaporates now.
You can pick up the Guidostache issue when it hits newsstands this Friday.
