OlderCate Blanchett: Brad Pitt is Tireless
Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett was just interviewed by Reuters about her role as Brad Pitt’s soulmate in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, out in theaters now. Here are the highlights:
This is your second film with Brad Pitt after co-starring with him in Babel” Is there anything noteworthy about working with him that the moviegoer might be interested in knowing/ He is unbelievably committed to what he does. … In both films, there’s been a sense that he’s asked really difficult questions of the film before he’s committed, and he sort of tends to be, I suppose from the outside, a little bit reticent to jump in. But that’s only because he wants to know if he’s going to commit 100 percent, he wants to know that the film’s going to be as committed as he is. And so I really admire him for that. He’s really tireless.
You’re not a dancer by trade, but is it true that you had some childhood dance instruction? Yeah, I studied ballet, but also in drama school the most powerful training for me was the movement training. And look, if I had my way over again, I’d be a Butoh dancer (contemporary dance form originating in Japan), or I’d desperately try and finagle my way into working with (modern dance choreographer) ‘Pina’ Bausch. So, (in Benjamin Button) I worked with Michelle Johnston, who was the choreographer.
BTW, if you haven’t seen Button yet. Run to your local movie theater and see it!!! It’s fantastic.

lolololololol
Well, if you have to resort to pity parties and to pose nekkid on mag covers to win, then so be it. Nothing to brag about, especially if you play third fiddle to a dog, and your picture is not even on the movie poster. Hahahahaha.
I’ve seriously never seen anything that compares to the level of immaturity that is displayed on threads that even remotely mention Brad and/or Angie and/or Jennifer Aniston. Some of you people are seriously disturbed, and if any of you are over 12, please, for your own sakes, get some help.
As to the primary topic of the thread, Cate Blanchett is amazing and very classy.

Maybe, but in defense of some of the fans, they have seen all over the web, for years now, the depth and breadth of attacks on Angie and as a consequence they want to throw the “words’ back. If it sounds immature so be it but I think if you look closer you’ll find many posters are just irritated that they have to spend any of their time stomping on lies that seem to roll so freely on too many other sites. Most fans visit here out of love and they don’t appreciate their object of that love being smeared.
sharon @ 01/01/2009 at 12:43 pm #44, because it’s a CATE BLANCHETT thread, you loon.

Then why is Jared using Brad’s name to get hits for Cate’s thread?
I’d say it’s a Cate and Brad thread.
And for the person above, Brad and Angie knew each other before he shot Babel. Angelina and Cate were friends way before that at least since they shot Pushing Tin together.
Cate adores both Brad and Angie.
Cate is younger than Maniston. Hahahaha.
Tyrese kissing Angelina!

John Mayer singing “Let them Pee,” in concert to the tune of Sting’s ‘Set them Free’ - I guess we have our answer about his fetishes right here. Hahahaha!! Busted!

Of course he is tireless. . . tireless of Angie, tireless of his beautiful kids, tireless of his charitable works.
That’s what he is. . . tireless.
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE !!!
Greetings fans.. Happy New year to everyone!
May our hearts be filled with hope, joy and peace for the Jolie-Pitts. They have brought so many of us together as a community and Jared, even with his triangle obsession, has been a great forum for fans to enjoy..
Folks, we have the Globes coming up in a few short weeks and there is much to look forward to.
Jared, why dont you post all the Ange tab covers and tag them to Brad Pitt as well? Funny you dont think a Bride wars cover would be related to Brad.. who do u think Ange is getting married to??? Double standards much..
OOH Now I get it - JP Fans! I’d come here and wonder, wonder to death why all the hate like bullets aimed at Jen A. but love, so much love for JP ! NOW I get it! This is a JP fan board, that explains it!
I am a “JA” fan, happy as a pig in you know what, that she kicked ass at the Box Office this week, 67 million and counting. The line was so long, I will go back Sunday and try and see it. Too bad Brad’s isn’t doing as well! I know, now it will be “hmm, it’s a hit (blockbuster ) because Owen is in it”….This will be the alibi for the JP fans! Whatever, JA fans, are in their glory, she can act and people DO love this woman, it’s the crazed JP fans who can’t accept it, and think this woman walks wrong, breathes wrong and is bad at everything. Yeah, and Angie is a saint. Say Goodnight, JP FANS, the ’she can’t do anything right’ crap is over.
#89 of course she kick ass at the box office, if brad pitt got naked w/ angelina in a magazine i am sure it will be a smashing hit.
by the way lori4423, how about you get naked along w/ the other jenlunatics to celebrate her box office success? since jennifer is rich they (mag) loaned some young male models maybe you guys (jenfans) can bring dogs to pose in the buff, what do you think?
Sorry to disappoint the fanistons…
.
….but Aniston is now an official JOKE. Anything else, is her PR hard at work.
.
As Hollywood sees it — ANISTON had NOTHING to do with M&M’s success - what you’re witnessing is ‘trickery,’ and fraud — her massive PR blitz, invoking and attacking Angelina, stripping, mentioning Brad, Brad, Brad (and his babies!) , the whole John Gayer relationship/subsequent dumping/subsequent reconciliation, along with her PR dialing for dates so she wouldn’t look pathetic - and could generate more ink with yet another ‘new man!’ — all of this fake PR bullsh*t for almost two months straight- was DESIGNED so Aniston could get as much ink as possible in the leadup to the popular dog book movie opening on Christmas, a movie people KNEW because of it’s dumb subject matter and best-seller status, would win the day anyway…THAT way, Aniston would ONCE AGAIN - coattail ride, THAT success, with people inferring she had something to do with it. Problem for Aniston is, the INDUSTRY knows that’s bullsh*t. LOL
.
It was all a last ditch PLOY by Aniston and her PR monster Huvane to once again coattail ride her way into giving people the false impression that she is partly responsible and got a win. But the TRUTH is - the movie was a popular book, it is an Owen Wilson vehicle, about a beloved dog that people wanted to see for THAT reason alone.
.
Get a grip Lori, aniston is a joke in Hollywood. She’s even MORE of a joke after her middle-aged strip show, Angelina attacks, coked out interviews, desperate dating tactics and constant mentioning of Brad & Angelina who don’t know she’s alive - all to desperately promote a critically panned schlockfest billed as a family comedy based on a bestseller in which she plays 4th banana. Essentially she sold all of her 40 yr old dignity, (what she had left after creating her own 5-year long reality as a pathetic desperate loser in love TV basketcase who lost her movie star good thing) - to pimp a crap movie she’s not even 3rd banana in.
.
She wh*red herself out like a crazed desperado maniac ALL for Beverly Hills Chijuajua 2 — which would have hit anyway, even if Jennifer Love Hewitt was cast in Maniston’s throwaway role.
.
News bulletin: the movie is a book called Marley & Me. Aniston is neither Marley, nor is she the ‘Me.’
.
So, sorry - but FAIL. What Hollywood will look at - is not the bestselling Owen wilson dog books, NOT the ensemble crapfests, not the movies where she is the ‘gf/wife’ of the big male comedy star — but the movies that SHE is the lead actor in….don’t look now, but ALL of HER craappy movies have been box office failures, and critically panned - the last most recent TWO, going straight to DVD.
.
Oops. LOLOL Desperados please come to your senses. :lol:
Access Search Engine: Should Jennifer Aniston Stop Talking About Angelina Jolie?
.
Has Jennifer Aniston said enough about Angelina Jolie? Apparently she has — a resounding 63 percent of you wanted Aniston to can it!
Access Hollywood
Lorri4424, and what does Jen do for you? Is she the one helping in the rebuilding of New Orleans or what? Brad is the one who gives back to help the poor where the government is doing next to nothing. The movie BB was filmed in New Orleans, gave a lot back into their lackluster economy and you are here celebrating BB does not beat a dog movie that plays in more theaters and have less screening time. Am I missing something?
I have not yet seen this movie (hopefully tomorrow) but from the reviews, both from the posters and from the critics, I must say I am absolutely happy for Brad and Fincher. Fincher, for the years he has dedicated to the project and Brad for the critical acclaim. Hopefully, they will recover the $150m (no doubt an exagerrated figure) and more, when the film hits overseas and Brad will finally get his Oscar. At the very least a nomination.
Marley is not in competition with TCCOBB. What do these loonies JA fans not get. It’s been explained countless times even from media the case and I don’t have to repeat them. Happy for JA that she hit a jackpot with this movie but not so lucky that it’s not getting critical acclaim like TCCOBB and for goodness sakes, it’s becoz of the dog…like Harry Potter.Put the stars in a diff movie..and I’m pretty sure the result will be different for them as well. What I did not like though is the way Maniston manipulated the media with her “poor me..then don’t pity me”. I have no love for this woman at all….don’t like her at all.
Benjamin Button is not showing here in Bermuda yet. Marley and me, 7 Pounds, Bedtime Stories and Up have been showing for the past week. Like me, many here want to see Benjamin Button: it has good critic buzz, subject matter and Brad Pitt.
Angelina and Brad have really had a wonderful year - critical acclaim, commercial success and best of all, the twins.
It will be great seeing them on the red carpets having been acknowledged by movie critics and peers for their craft. Last year they shared a sweet secret (the twins). You can only wonder what they’ve got up their sleeves this year!
Marriage bermy girl. Marriage.
An oldie….why do you keep mentioning your hatred for TOM CRUISE?…your obsession is showing. Freak.
