Legends of the Fall is one of my favorite movies, along with Seven Years in Tibet and a River Runs Through It.

Meet Joe Black, Seven Monkeys and Interview with a Vampire are also good movies that Pitt starred in. They guy has a pretty good track record for making good movies and is one of the better actors on the Scene today. He what they call "Bankable"

I agree. I also liked the one where he played an IRA guy, I forget the name. A guy can be a good actor even if the chicks like him.

I STILL haven't seen Legends of the Fall yet even thought I've rented it on three separate occasions. Something always seems to come up to keep me from watching it.

I also used to assume that Brad Pitt was just a pretty boy, but the guy really can act very well. Pretty much every movie I've seen with him I've liked. A River Runs Through It is one of my all time favorites (it's freaky how much it reminds me of me and my younger brother - although hopefully the ending will continue to be different.) I even liked Pitt in the Mexican, which I wasn't sure I was going to like based on the reviews. But his scenes actually made the film worth watching. Julia Roberts and Gandolfini's typical, quirky, relationship scenes got all the rave reviews, but it was Brad's 'every man' character trapped in bizarre situations scenes that made the film enjoyable.

Brad Pitt is a great actor (witness Fight Club) and Legends of The Fall is a great movie as well. What posessed him to be in a completely unmitigated crapfest like "The Mexican" is beyond me. God...two hours(!) of my life that I'll never get back.

The Mexican has some funny lines actually, but yeah, it's total crap. And I have the dvd. :disgust:
