Recently Brad Pitt compared one of the central themes of
Moneyball, his Academy Award nominated best actor performance, to the auto industry. In Moneyball, Pitt's character questions and rethinks 150 years of baseball know-how (from
the video @ 2:10),
"I equate it to the automobile. If we invented the automobile today, would we say -- I Know, we'll run it on a finite fossil fuel, we'll export a 1/2 Trillion dollars of our GDP, then spend 100's of millions of dollars to protect that interest, and it'll pollute the environment!"
The Oscars are Sunday, Feb 26 on ABC.
