Brad Pitt’s First Film Was At The Drive-in

Brad Pitt’s First Film Was At The Drive-in

NY Times Magazine tapped Jake Paltrow, Gwyneth Paltrow’s younger brother, to shoot a short film of seven actors talking about the movies that made early impressions on them — Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Cate Blanchett, Penelope Cruz, Helen Mirren, Ken Watanbe, and Abbie Cornish. Watch Jake Paltrow’s short film here.

Jake Paltrow, 31, had his new film The Good Night premiere at The Sundance Film Festival last month. Big sis Gwyn stars in it alongside Penelope Cruz. The Good Night is set for a nationwide release on Sept 21. Thanks, Charla!

59 the real tita Says: Thanks for the info. - I’m looking forward to it even more now, even though it is a sad story. I actually get the impression that ‘A Mighty Heart’ focuses a lot on Marianne’s ordeal in trying to get Daniel back after he is kidnapped by the Jihadi. I don’t expect it to be a ‘feel good movie’, that’s for sure, but I predict that the ending may focus on the birth of the baby (not sure if boy/girl) as that is always a bittersweet moment when one has lost a spouse/partner.

Guli - doing well - hope you’re enjoying your Beringer! A good sign that you must be feeling better. I may have to step out and get some vino myself ;-) I noticed you mentioned Brad filming in Canada (TAOJJ). My cousin and her husband, who is an architect/engineer/land developer live in Calgary and rented out one of their condos to some of the film crew of TAOJJ, but alas, no Brad and Angelina sightings :-(

JoliePitt Says: Very welcome - didn’t mean to muddy the waters! The threads are a lot to keep up on and I miss a lot too! I was gone for a couple of weeks when my sweetie was in town and I feel like I missed 2 months worth.

OMG, this is hilarious. You went to ALL the trouble of going to a fansite of Brad and Angie just to find some incriminating evidence against Angie? LOL! This is too funny. Oh, by the way, you know she’ll have other biological babies even with that picture, don’t you?

Estelle, where are you lady don’t go to lurkdome now, it is so much fun to have fun to drive the one or two idiots crazy since they can’t join in and are like little kids wanting good or bad attention, well NO attention just kills them and they fall apart :lol: I sure hope they are by the ocean or have half a brain that running tap water might work to scream at….. JMHO!!!!

Nope so I thought i’d come here and share some sunshine!

I think you’ll find that the difference between your precious X and Brad and Angelina is that Brad and Angelina have made a concerted effort TO QUIT smoking - because THEY HAVE CHILDREN AROUND. Yes, there have been some pictures of Brad smoking recently - however considering the incredible strain they have been under lately I don’t blame Brad - and I am confident he doesn’t light up around the children. As someone who smoked for 12 years and has quit for 9 I know how hard of a battle it is though for anyone. Nice try though jack ass.

Hey there! So nice to see you back :-) I agree with you - I can’t see them picking a film like this right now either - more of a nice fantasy than anything - lol. How have you been?

….As part of the arrangement, the company agreed to create a foundation benefiting children’s causes…
***********************************
According to your article, the burden of creating the foundation falls on S t. John’s, not Angelina. Whatever S t. John’s failure might be, it shouldn’t be attributed to AJ and for the record, S t. John’s can be sued for breach of contract by Angelina if they never get around to doing this. You can blame AJ if she failed to represent S t. John’s as agreed and S t. John’s uses that failure to renege on their promise to create a charitable foundation. However if it is S t. John’s that reneges on its part of the bargain even while AJ performed her side of the contract, you can’t hold AJ responsible for that. It’s like if I contracted with you to buy a car and I paid you and you failed to deliver the car. Are you saying I’m to blame for your failure to deliver the car as promised?

You and the writer of that article are so obviously trying to find something to pin on Angelina that you’ll make her responsible for the shortcomings of anyone remotely connected to her. That articles just exposes how desperately you’re grasping at straws to find a point of contention regarding this woman.

Film adaptations of books often differ in thier focus so I suppose we can’t tell yet but I just wanted to add that I found the book of A Mighty Heart very inspiring and uplifting. Of course the story is immensly sad and yes I did cry at parts of it but the overall impression I was left with was one of hope for the human race. This is due I think to Mariannes personality and sheer force of spirit and love for life and people and I imagine that that’s what will come through the film version, not least because that’s what Angelina is like herself. There’s a lot of detail about not just what happened and how it affected Mariane at that time but also the world reaction to Daniels kidnapping. It’s also a beautiful love story, I’m looking forward to seeing it.

Doing ok. Still at the office and will be here for a little while longer even it is quitting time.

Yes it is nice to imagine roles AJ might play–she’s so versatile and she’s got so much intensity that she’ll make any character come alive and make it her own too.

Wasn’t this radaronline the same website that tried to smear Brad and Angelina by saying that their Namibian donations were never made, and yet Lainey actually made contact with the Namibians who said that the donations were actually done? And yet radaronline never made a retraction?

Why is it that those who spend their time and money on charitable works are the most maligned? Maybe Angelina should just be like Kate and Posh, patron saints of the shopping malls … and forget all the sick and starving refugees in the world.

Let me start by saying I am not ritzygirl. I do not care if you love or hate braddy boy or jolie. Do I think anyone will change there mind by what I post? Nope. I just get such a kick out of your lame excuses that you make up for these people. So it’s o.k. to smoke when things are tough? I don’t think so! jen smoking = bad … brad somking = it’s o.k. jolie colors her hair and wears make up = she’s so natural jen colors her hair and wears make up = she’s so fake. I also smoked and stopped so don’t give me the crap about i don’t know what its like. Also I just love it when jared is not here to delete anything negative about these two. I love watching you people squirm to find reason in your defence of these two. So keep it coming, I need a laugh tonight.

Go away before I bring you article on your Idol x,it seems it the only way that makes you run away from BA thread

Test, WTF is wrong with you? Did you get up from the wrong side of the bed this morning? Why can’t you just be nice. If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. You irritate the hell out of me.

To Test Says:

“Of course, Jolie has had a busy year and a half, starring in The Good Shepherd and the upcoming A Mighty Heart, about murdered journalist Daniel Pearl, along with giving birth to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, her daughter with pseudo-husband, Brad Pitt.” We can now add to that the death of her MOTHER.

“…its launch was put on hold. “It’s still in the developmental stages,” says a **. John spokesperson. “We haven’t decided whether it will be devoted to one cause or to several.”

All you’ve proven is that your reading comprehension skills are limited. Brad and Angelina have very full lives and I have no doubt that they will live up to their commitments on THEIR timeline, and not YOURS. Vamos!

Nothing new. its so yesterrday. those tab .news trying to ripped Angie apart. WE Don’t BELIEVED IT!

That is what i found very funny and pathetic of the haters, like Test #74 #75… that they HATE Brad and Angie so much, but still they are so OBSESS with them that they do research about them and they keep track on everything that they are doing!! I mean, if you are sick of them; why you follow every move they make??, because the haters are even more OBSESS with them than we fans are with them!!

And the haters are more VOCAL about they hatred about them… because lets face it; the haters have NO LIFE and that is why they are so obsess with Brangelina!!

Hey Guli, my favorite mayor ;)

Why waste the tap water…point to the toilette. :)

Test- thanks for the idea. Think I’ll go smoke a cigarette in honor of you.
