3. Brad Pitt – Oral Fixation
This is one of those entries that you might not have noticed, and it’s more than likely a little of the actor’s off-screen personality bleeding over into his films. But picture Brad Pitt in a role – literally, any of his roles – odds are, he’s got something in his mouth.
Whether it’s smoking in Fight Club, biting his nails to the point of becoming institutionalized in 12 Monkeys, or licking his fingers a ridiculous amount of times while browsing a scouting report in Moneyball, Pitt just can’t leave his mouth alone. And when he’s not doing those things, he’s eating.
In fact, Pitt eats so much in his movies, that Vulture put together a hilariously extensive list of all the things Pitt has eaten on screen – although it’s been almost a decade since, so there’s bound to be much, much more to add by now.
It’s not entirely clear why directors seem to oblige Pitt’s obsession with putting things in his mouth, but it makes for a pretty funny list entry, so… our gain?
