Regarding BrianSez’s Review
Thanks for reviewing this Brian. I recall liking it a lot when it came out. I further recall sitting behind a row of girls who didn’t seem to be targets for this sort of movie, until Brad Pitt appeared. Pitt was little known at the time, notwithstanding his showy but small part in Thelma & Louise the year before.

I seem to recall that his first scene was standing in the middle of a trout stream bathed in golden sunlight. So Golden Brad appears and these girls in front of me start squealing and giggling like, well, like girls who were just getting their first good look at Brad Pitt.

That’s when I knew we had a major new star on our hands.
