 Charisma
is a word that might have been invented for BRAD PITT. Since bursting
upon the cinematic scene in 'Thelma & Louise,' Pitt has never allowed
super-stardom to deter him from going after the more unconventional roles.
Never is that more apparent than in his portrayal as "Death"
in 'Meet
Joe Black,' and in last year's release 'Fight
Club.' "When
I read a script, I go by instinct," says Pitt. "I feel in my gut if it's
right."
 Pitt
has emerged as one of the most prominent actors of his generation as a
result of performances in such films as 'Seven
Years in Tibet,' 'Legends of the Fall,' 'Seven' and 'Twelve Monkeys.'
 Pitt's
role as the seductive hitchhiker in RIDLEY SCOTT's controversial 'Thelma
& Louise' first brought him to national attention. He then went on to
star as the psychopathic serial killer in 'Kalifornia,' the charismatic-but-doomed
Paul MacLean in ROBERT
REDFORD's 'A River Runs Through It,' and the bloodsucking Louis in
NEIL JORDAN's 'Interview with the Vampire.' He was nominated for a Golden
 Globe
for his work as Tristan, the passionate, untamable brother in 'Legends
of the Fall,' and also nominated for an Academy AwardŽ and a Golden Globe,
which he won, for his co-starring role in TERRY GILLIAMS's 'Twelve Monkeys.'
