For film geeks, 'True Romance' is an important film seeing as though it's Quentin Tarantino's first written movie (though he didn't direct it). It's a movie full of memorable characters, especially Gary Oldman who is almost unrecognizable playing the awesomely named Drexil Spivey (seriously, is this a Harry Potter character?). With all those memorable characters, why is it that I watched this movie again and it just dawned on me that Brad Pitt is in it?!
Brad Pitt shows his comedy chops early on in his career with his role as Floyd, the roommate to another character. He plays less of a heartthrob and more of a stoner goon, so maybe we collectively blocked it from our memories. Give it another watch though, because it is a great early performance.
