Caught a screening of Babel last night. How did Brad Pitt measure up? Even ex Gwyneth Paltrow told NYDN that he’ll take home an Oscar: “It’s the best performance Brad’s ever given. [Babel] makes you want to take good care of your children.” Here’s how it went down…

3 different countries. 4 groups of people. Lives forever changed. A man in Morocco is sold a rifle that he gives to his two sons to protect their goats from jackals. While practicing their shooting, the younger son accidentally shoots an American woman, (Cate Blanchett) who is vacationing with her husband (Brad Pitt) aboard a tour bus. The movie establishes the characters that are further connected to the American couple, the children who are with their Mexican nanny back in the States and the original owner of the rifle, a Japanese businessman whose daughter is deaf-mute.

Daddy-daughter duo Brad Pitt and baby Zahara were spotted together recently in Pune, India. Or were they? The above picture reveals Brad carrying Zee on his shoulders but the surroundings are reminiscent of Namibia with the wooden stick picket fences. But Brad had a mohawk back then and not in this picture. And that kid in the red t-shirt doesn’t look like he’s from Pune! What say you?

UPDATE :: It appears to be Pune as Zahara is wearing the same capris and pink shoes as when she was at the Goa airport.

I believe this is Brad Pitt in the Rajasthan capital of Jaipur at a film shoot at the historical Bichoon Fort. Brad later went to a palace in the city to shoot a commercial for a Japanese product. Brad and Angelina reportedly stayed at Oberoi Rajvilas Hotel.

It’s official! Babel will not be entered as a foreign film…. great news for the movie! Thanks, Gabriella! Above is Brad Pitt facing off against director Alejandro González Iñárritu in the November 2006 issue of InStyle magazine. Send in a better scan if you’ve got it!

Babel opens in NY/LA this Friday, Oct. 27 and then everywhere nationwide on Nov. 10. Read up on all the nitty gritty production notes for Babel here. Official Babel website here. Enjoy a few pictures you may have missed… more after the jump.

Baby Z was spotted wearing bangles (those are like totally so in right now) in the arms of daddy Brad Pitt earlier this week. Zahara is almost two and cute as a button! She was carried by Angelina Jolie’s security officer Mickey Brett earlier this week as well.

A semi-smiling Shiloh Jolie Pitt, almost 5 months, was spotted with proud mommy Angelina Jolie in Pune, India earlier today. Angie looks so protective of her daughter… Team Baby Shiloh! Meanwhile, Angelina’s security officer, Mickey Brett, carried Zahara, almost 2.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reportedly spent the last few days (since Wednesday) relaxing in Jaipur, India. The Hollywood couple have been filming A Mighty Heart in Pune for the past two weeks. But according to a senior city palace security official, Brad was in Jaipur to shoot an ad film and his cameramen had spent an hour and a half at the palace.

In a recent feature with Brad by French magazine Cine Tele Revue:

Babel… the title of the film references the Tower of Babel, which men built to reach heaven. You sometimes create your own Lego version with your kids, right? Yeah, that comes from me. I would like to see Maddox as an engineer or architect, but right now he seems more interested in tee ball (a variation on baseball).

So you like Legos? Up to a certain point. There’s nothing worse that walking around barefoot in the middle of the night and stepping on a Lego that’s hiding in the carpet. It’s terrible. But what can you do? It’s one of the risks of being a dad.

And speaking about houses, is it true that you’re thinking of leaving LA? We’re thinking of that, yes. LA is not really a place to raise kids. We might move to DC, but nothing is settled.

UPDATE :: Pictures have been added to the gallery!

Annie Leibovitz photographs are on view at the Brooklyn Museum starting this week through January 2007. The exhibit is aptly titled Annie Leibovitz: A Photographer’s Life, 1990-2005 and will contain more than 100 photographs. Annie has the knack for making her subjects look irresistible, which is why they are her greatest fans. Check it:

Leibovitz’s 1994 shot of Brad Pitt for Vanity Fair is a case in point. The screen star sprawls across a bed draped in a velvety orange counterpane, in a room with custard-yellow walls and rust-colored floors. He wears leopard-skin pants, cowboy boots and a multi-hued striped shirt open at the chest and unbuttoned at the wrists. With one hand he strokes his long blond hair, while the other lies languorously across his waist. The pose suggests abandon, while the faraway expression in his stunning eyes signals absorption in some deep thought.

Leibovitz and Pitt collaborate on the tableau. The actor’s reverie reveals nothing; he may be trying to remember whether he watered his plants, for all the viewer can tell. He’s a professional, playing the role of “Brad Pitt,” vulnerable and wistful yet comfortingly macho artiste. For her part, Leibovitz draws on the library of art-historical references she must have in her brain. Here, she has posed Pitt to resemble the dead Thomas Chatterton, as rendered by the Victorian painter Henry Wallis.
