Brad Pitt Compares Harvey Weinstein to Charles Manson

This is probably NOT the best comparison, but Brad Pitt recently compared Charles Manson to accused serial predator, Harvey Weinstein.

Now, Charles Manson and Harvey Weinstein have nothing in common and are truly uncomparable, but if you ask Brad Pitt, that what he had to say. Read on…

Brad Pitt Compares Harvey Weinstein to Charles Manson

CelebNMusic247.com has learned that Brad Pitt was promoting his new film, The Once Upon A Time In Hollywood, the actor recalled how the infamous Manson killings affected the way people looked at Hollywood’s “Golden Age,” according to his parents, Jane and William Pitt

Brad Pitt explained the Sunday Times:

When my parents described it, it was as the end of this idealized revolution. My parents are still hippies, but it was the loss of this dream. As Quentin [Tarantino] describes, you sort of portray this utopia, but there is mildew around the canvas that brought the darkness of humanity into play and ended a lot of my parents’ hopes for how they could infuse that ‘love and peace’ ideology into the rest of the world. It all sort of crashed and ended so much that some talk of it as a conspiracy. It was the total end of an era — immediately.

When asked if anything else has “rattled Hollywood” as much as the Manson murders, Pitt replied:

Harvey Weinstein. Can I say that?

Well, with numerous women accusing Weinstein of sexual assault and misconduct in October 2017 which led to his fall from grace thanks to the galvanization of the #MeToo movement. It makes sense as a shocking revelation rattles Hollywood.

Pitt was pressed on his answer, with the Times asking if he’s referring to “a similar loss of innocence in a world that was cocooned and thought of in a glorified way.”

Brad responded:

It’s more that I think we’re getting recalibrated but in a good way.

The Inglourious Basterds star spoke on going through a positive recalibration which led to an evolved idea of a new male “vulnerable” masculinity in Hollyweird.

He concluded by saying:

What I see now is new masculinity, especially with people who have gone through Hollywood and its recalibration, a new male who is more vulnerable. I’m not talking mushiness — I mean a man who owns his own flaws and is aware of them and opens about it. And vulnerable, with real feelings, rather than being this macho, trying-to-be-tough guy. But that might just be me in my old age, on my own trip, projecting onto everyone else.
