tcp: Brad Pitt

OMG... Brad Pitt! my ultimate Hollywood dream!!

OMG.. Brad Pitt... plus my idol Angelina... perfect!!

OMG: Brad Pitt on TCP!!

okay, sorry for a little exaggeration.. i am simply out of my mind whenever Brad Pitt is mentioned..

why...Brad Pitt was named Sexiest Man Alive by People in 1995 and 2000! so who wouldn't swoon and fall for him?!

without further audieu, for our Tuesday Couch Potatoes, my favorite Brad Pitt film is TROY!

Troy is a 2004 war drama film concerning the Trojan War. It is loosely
based on Homer's Iliad where we came to know Achilles (from the infamous Achilles Heel). In the Bronze Age Greece, King Agamemnon of Mycenae is in Thessaly, Greece, looking to conquer this last territory not in his fledgling empire. His soldiers prepare to fight the Thessalonian king, Triopas . Triopas agrees to settle the matter
through single combat between their best warriors.

Achilles (Brad Pitt) easily kills the Thessalonian champion Boagrius. Accepting defeat, Triopas presents Achilles with a scepter as a token for his king. But Achilles
refuses, saying Agamemnon is not his king.

In Sparta, Prince Hector (Eric Bana) and his young brother Paris (Orlando Bloom) negotiate peace between Troy and Sparta. Paris has fallen in love with Helen (Diane Kruger), Menelaus' wife. He smuggles her back to Troy with him. Infuriated,
Menelaus vows revenge. Meanwhile, Agamemnon (Menelaus' brother), who had for
years harbored plans for conquering Troy (which would give him control of the
Aegean Sea), uses this as a justification to invade Troy.

and soon the battle begun...

I would say, i love all Brad Pitt movies - especially Interview with The Vampire! he's the original vampire hearthrob! i also loved him in Mr. & Mrs. Smith as well as in the Ocean's films..

but Troy holds the most tender part of my heart, simply because this was the first movie that my husband and I watched (back when we were still dating as BF-GF) and aside from Brad, 2 gorgeous hunks also captured my eyes - Eric Bana & Orlando Bloom.. But of course, BRAD aka Achilles best made my heart go a-flutter..

i hope you enjoyed & will enjoy Troy as much as I did.. :) till next time for our Tuesday Couch Potatoes edition
