Brad Pitt And His Paparazzi Instincts

Brad Pitt says his "instincts" allowed him to detect photographers hiding on the set of his new movie 'The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford'.

"You develop radar. Like I know when there's someone in the bushes 300 yards away shooting. I know to recognise that feeling. On the Canadian set, there was a guy in total camouflage, who commandoed his way on knee and elbow. And I know that feeling. It's inexplicable, it's just one of those instincts." the actor said.

"He would always spot the paparazzi hiding in the trees." confirms The film's director Andrew Dominik.

"I understand the essence of paranoia. I understand being hunted, to some degree. I understand a bounty on my head." says Brad, who plays American outlaw Jesse James, found it easy to relate to his character because he often feels "paranoid" and "hunted".

Brad insists he and lover Angelina Jolie can handle the pressures of fame - but finds it upsetting when their children are thrust into the limelight.
