The always handsome Brad Pitt attended the 2009 SAG Awards with his lovely lady Angelina who was interviewed by E! before him.
After Angelina was finished speaking with E! Brad stepped up and after speaking about Angie and her beauty, he appeared to deliberately change the topic from how Angie inspired him to his appreciation for Mickey Rourke.

In fact, just as Brad was talking about Mickey who was nominated for a 2009 SAG for his work in The Wrestler, Brad turned around and saw Mickey approaching the interview area. Brad made it a point to hug Mickey and shake his hand.
The two actors were obviously fond of each other and seemed to really enjoy hugging and shaking hands.
Brad said he thought Mickey did an amazing job with The Wrestler and he was so glad to see the actor back in the acting game.
Brad couldn’t say enough about Mickey. He said he was definitely “one of the greats” and “one of the masters” and it was great to see him in The Wrestler.
The 45 year old Brad Pitt was nominated for his portrayal of Benjamin Button in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” Ironically Brad and Mickey Rourke were nominated in the same category together but Brad obviously thought Mickey was amazing in The Wrestler.
Neither Brad nor Mickey took home The Actor. Instead the award went to a delighted Sean Penn.
The category for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Leading Role included Richard Jenkins as Walter Vale in “The Visitor” by Overture Films, Frank Langella as Richard Nixon in “Frost/Nixon” from Universal Pictures, Sean Penn as Harvey Milk in “Milk” from Focus Features, Brad Pitt as Benjamin Button in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” from Paramount Pictures and Mickey Rourke as Randy “The Wrestler” for Fox Searchlight Pictures.

Mickey Rourke Says Brad Pitt Not Just A Pretty Face At 2009 SAG Awards
January 26th, 2009 by Karen Marie Shelton
Mickey Rourke cleans up nicely. After his controversial look at the recent 2009 Golden Globe Awards, which he won for Best Actor, Mickey turned up his Red Carpet hair and fashion looks a notch.
Mickey was interviewed on the 2009 SAG Award Red Carpet by E! Before he could get to the area where he was going to be interviewed by E! he ran into actor Brad Pitt who had just finished chatting. Mickey and Brad hugged each other warmly and shook hands and had a brief laught together.
It was obvious from their interaction that Mickey and Brad have a mutual respect and fondness for each other. This is ironic because they were competing with each other and Mickey actually bet Brad for the Golden Globe Award.
The actor who was nominated for the 2009 SAG for his role in The Wrestler was told Brad had said very nice things about him just a few minutes before.
Mickey returned the compliment and said he has always admired Brad. Mickey said some of Brads films were so great and he personally thought he was really good in “Legends Of The Fall”. Mickey said as an actor Brad is always “very consistent” and always goes beyond his handsome face.
The Wrestler star said its tough for Brad because he is “such a handsome guy” and so “good looking” he has to work hard to get beyond that. But Mickey said Brad does get past his pretty face and is a very good actor.
Although both Brad and Mickey lost in their 2009 SAG category to Sean Penn for Milk it was obvious that the two actors had lots of mutual respect and admiration. Based on other comments it appears that they also both admired Sean Penn’s work.
While talking with E! and apparently Access Hollywood Mickey revealed that he was very grateful to all the guys in the world of wrestling who the movie was about. He specifically mentioned Rick Flair and told E! he was going to go back and do Wrestlemania to show his appreciation to the guys in Wrestling who had helped him get the movie made.
While he was being interviewed about his role E! called him The Comeback Kid. Mickey was very charming, polite, humble and even funny. He made a point of talking about his agent Dave Unger and how he had helped to change his life.
