Fletch over at Blog Cabins recently watched this two and was baffled that Pitt didn't get a nom for this.Reel Whorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16653916483973674603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4426052636690673661.post-69053457469089439692009-01-27T13:12:00.000-05:002009-01-27T13:12:00.000-05:00Ooh - there's a photo in that old movie book of th...Ooh - there's a photo in that old movie book of the scene where Tyrone Powers collapses off the chair in his living room after being shot ... and I kept remembering that photo while watching this version.
