Brad keeps kids away from ‘Basterds’
Samm Levine who plays Private First Class (PFC) Gerold Hirschberg in the new movie, revealed cast and crew begged Brad – who has adopted kids Maddox, seven, Pax, five, and four-year-old Zahara and biological children Shiloh, three, and 10-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne with partner Angelina Jolie – to bring his kids to work, but he only introduced them to Maddox.
Samm explained: “He brought Maddox one or two times because he’s the oldest. But everybody wanted him to bring the others, too. Everyone would always ask him, ‘Hey! When are you going to bring the kids?’ And he said, ‘It’s a World War II movie. What’s a good day to bring my kids to this set? I don’t think it would be right.’ So he had a point there. And we were all pretty bummed about that, but we respected his reasoning. He’s a pretty responsible guy.”

Um, it’s not actually World War II, it is just the SET of a MOVIE. And for all they claim to tell their kids about weapons and war and how they claim to promote a realistic view of the world, this seems to be an incredibly stupid or made up reason. If it is true at all. Now, if he’d said “it’s a Quentin Tarrantino film, when’s a good day?” THAT I would buy. QT is F*CKED UP in the head.
