“I wrote a book about brad pitt because I love him. He’s a real boy: sexy, strong, adventurous, and I’m sure he’d protect me if I needed him.“It is with these words that Frédéric Mitterrand presents his latest book, as unusual as one could wish.
Released on April 13, Brad features the story “of a hunk from Missouri who shows up in Hollywood in the mid-eighties with three hundred dollars in his pocket.” The young man wants to make movies but does not know anyone and survives odd jobs until his remarkable appearance in Thelma and Louise. The rest you know.
Fine, funny and referenced, the work retraces the extraordinary journey of a cinema icon. From the very first lines, the author’s passion for his subject shines through. If the first pages – fascinating – focus at length on the filming of Thelma and Louise, the rest presents a detailed analysis of each of the star’s films. And as in every biography, the personal side is not left out: the last pages focus on his personal life and his projects outside the cinema.
A non-exhaustive biography of the adored actor written by a real passionate fan: this is what awaits you through these pages. Born in 1947, Frédéric Mitterrand is, in addition to having been Minister of Culture between 2009 and 2012, a man of cinema and television, director of documentaries and films, animator, producer and writer.

“I don’t know him, he doesn’t know me, but maybe he will stop at this bottle overboard when he discovers that he has a friend somewhere in France who loves him, admires him and understands it.“Brad (the book) is to be read with passion and Brad (the actor) to be discovered without concession.
