Day 21 - 26th January
Snacks Eaten - Popcorn and feeling like I have eaten so so much
Film Number 21 - Johnny Suede
Directed by Tom DiCillo
Year - 1991
Fresh faced Brad Pitt stars as big quiff Johnny Suede, whos guitar and music is his life. After a brief encounter with a girl who seems more interested in Johnny's image. After unexpectedly meeting Yvonne (Catherine Keener), He discovers more important things than just being a rock star.
After appearing in Thelma and Louise the same year, Pitt carries a great appeal in this film similar to Johnny Depp's appearance in John Water's Cry Baby in his early career. There is no pretense and the film is just purely enjoyable to watch. Plus the chance to see a then budding star rise. Keener is also great in this and the on screen relationship is endearing.
This was fun. Pitt looks great and refreshing after the last film. Next film? Babel. Another easy link guys....
