I don't understand this either, the guy is a cracking actor and has made some fantastic films, Legends of the Fall, Fight Club, Twelve Monkeys, Snatch, to name but a few. Him and his missus give bundles of cash to charities. I am hardly a fanboi but can't fathom dislike for the guy, other than that he is rich, talented and successful, and marries beautiful women :headscratch:

I've made mention of this before, but I worked as a Canadian soldier/extra on Legends of the Fall outside of Calgary.  During the charge scene in the dark, I'm the soldier in the frame 2nd from the right of Aidan Quinn.

Brad Pitt wasn't really all that famous yet, Thelma and Louise, True Romance, a few others, Interview with a Vampire came out the same year as Legends, I think it was afterwards though.  He really liked the area, he still owns and maintains a home in the Canadian rocky mountains near where much of the film was shot.  One of the guys from our troop left a note on his chair one day to ask if he wanted to come hit the town with all of us on the weekend, and he came looking for us with the note in hand, demanding to be shown around town.  He liked seeing the older architecture and buildings than the bars like the old Republic, and nobody mobbed him when we were out.  Must have been nice, because I'm sure for the last 15 years going anywhere in public without being mobbed by paps and fans is an impossibility. Anyhow, he was a nice guy back then, I'm sure fame changes people, but he certainly was very cordial and pro on the set, not a pita at all.

My Grandfather fought on the Summer. They used Bully Beef cans for the same purpose and.then slung them at the German trenches :old:

 Another great story!   I was told it was so hot you didnt dare touch the tank with bare skin and that they would clean a spot and cook powered eggs right on the tank! :O

  When I asked why not just get out and find some shade..... the stare was beyond belief,remember I was just a kid so I knew no better.   He did tell a tale of an observation plane that was attack by 109's and how the little plane just flew low and slow around a few trees and the 109's finally ran low on ammoand or fuel and left the area!  Again I asked,and remember I was just a kid,well why didnt you guys open fire on the planes with your tank......  I got another one of those stares...... :rofl
