There are plenty of reasons to have Complicated Feelings about Brad Pitt, but it does sound like he's a very good collaborator on a film set. Or at least that is the impression we're getting from the latest F1 short, which appeared on YouTube. It's a behind-the-scenes featurette of people essentially praising Pitt and how involved he is with every level of this production. It's a bit over the top, but we've seen worse from other studios and other casts, so we'll let it slide. While hearing about Pitt being an awesome collaborator is neat, let's hear from director Joseph Kolinski and have him break down how the hell he shot this thing and how he improved techniques he learned on Top Gun: Maverick.
