In this week's New Yorker, there's a big old picture of Michael Pitt beside their review of Bertolucci's movie, "The Dreamers." Michael Pitt was also Tommy Gnosis (of the bad hair) in the wonderful "Hedwig and the Angry Inch," and the burnout guy in the scary, pervy "Bully." He definitely rocked those low-slung silver rock star pants at the end of "Hedwig." Anyway, I once would have described him as a poor man's Leonardo DiCaprio (since they look alarmingly alike), but now I would amend that and say that he's a riskier, more interesting Leonardo DiCaprio. He's totally dreamy in that creepy kind of way. You could have a short-lived relationship with the man, but anything beyond that, he would probably get all intense and freak you the hell out. (as an aside, I just IMDBed him, and he was born in 1981. Five years my junior--that must mean he was like 19 when he did "Hedwig.")
