Michael Pitt's Six Best Movies

Publish date: 2024-04-15

Since he turned 40 on the 10th, here's an article on his best roles, including DL Favourites Hedwig and the Angry Inch and The Dreamers.

Was glad they included his role in Ghost in the Shell - his performance was great, whatever you think if the rest of the film.

Michael Pitt is not attractive, and never was. I only bought "The Dreamers" because it was a Bertolucci film, and because Louis Garrel starred in it.

R1 This is ridiculously false. Hot ASF.

I can't think of a single Michael Pitt film that I like. There is something very off about him.

Like who you like, R2. That's completely fine. You probably also think Evan Peters is attractive (which he isn't, and never has been).

Genuinely, I have never been attracted to Michael Pitt. Not once.

Did some doubt that he would make it to forty?

Michael Pitt is amazing. He is our generations Sean Penn. But, who will be his Madonna?

don't forget he was also in Dawson's Creek

Then he probably has a good chance of becoming Michelle Williams' short term husband.

R1 & R2, Michael Pitt and Louis Garrel were both hot in "The Dreamers". They were each generous in showing lots of cock & ass.

The Dreamers is a great film.

OP/R2/R4/R9 is fucking HIIIIIIIIGH.

Micheal Pitt looks like the culmination of generations of West Virginia inbreeding.

Aw, did I wing you, Sweet Summer Child R15?

Has James Van Der Beek commented or wished him Happy Birthday, or is he too busy putting another baby in his wife?

Is he still dating the french guy?

R19 Theo? I don't think so, sadly. Theo made some sad posts about him on Instagram, but nothing new/recent, which he used to do.

Oh, forgot: Michael has been active on his Instagram, and doesn't follow Theo anymore.

Michael Is amazing! Drug use has not been kind to his face. I still love him though. I think he struggles with adhd and mood swings. Not surprising he self medicates.

Michael Pitt is not "hot" but isn't bad looking.

While he's usually very good in his roles, he doesn't get cast as often as you'd expect.

Is he "difficult" or is there something else going on.

Never mind...I found the answer:

[quote]And then Pitt — who played one of the more popular and compelling characters on the series — was surprisingly killed off at the end of its second season. At the time, those on the show insisted that Pitt’s departure was a “creative decision,” but that “creative decision” just so happened to come a month after Pitt was fired by his own agent because he was “really difficult on set and otherwise.”

He is ok looking, looks like he needs a bath, lacking in charisma, seems off has a serial killer vibe

by Anonymousreply 26April 25, 2021 11:48 PM

He's always been cute to me. But yes, he could use a bath or six. I had a huge crush on him in that 'Funny Games' movie w/ Brady Corbet and Naomi Watts. Then again, I've always had a weakness for tall, blonde guys. His hair was cute in this movie as well.

R27, that movie is well done, but disturbing.

R22 I think he looks good for 40, especially considering he's certainly done a lot of drugs in his time (I hope that's not still the case). I prefer natural wrinkles than botox- it always shows in the end. RDJ had plenty of wrinkles when he came back in Iron Man and he looked pretty damn sexy! He's had some subtle work done since then, and it is good work too, but you can tell. Same with Brad Pitt.

i had a huge crush on him, i loved the film Bully

R30, yeah, there's a lot of hot male flesh on display in "Bully" -- Michael Pitt, Nick Stahl and Brad Renfro.

by Anonymousreply 31April 26, 2021 1:10 PM

R31 they were all very hot. Miss Brad Renfro so much.

by Anonymousreply 32April 26, 2021 1:49 PM

Yikes none of the Bully nudity was appealing. also Paz de la Huerta was fired from the same show as this guy. Think they were doing H on set together? Walk-in around like garbage cans?

i'd love to be in the middle of a Michael Pitt/Nick Stahl sandwich

Nick Stahl was gorgeous. 'Bully' was full of nekkid young men! From what I last read, Nick is back on the wagon and working a bit.

R38 that's great to hear! He's a great actor and he seemed to be in a really bad place some years ago.

I wonder if Nick, Michael Pitt, and Brad Renfro fucked around on the set of that movie. Clearly there would've been drug use going on, but I wonder what else. Poor Brad would be dead seven years later.

R41 Larry Clark has alluded to that in the past, and I've read stuff here that said the same.
