- Romance
Johnny Suede (Brad Pitt) longs to be a teen-age idol like Ricky Nelson. He has a pair of black suede shoes, an impressive pompadour, a guitar, and some pals who will play backup for him. Yet he doesn't have much talent or drive.
Johnny Suede is a 1991 comedy-romance starring Brad Pitt as an aspiring rock-and-roll idol with style but little substance. The film follows Johnny's misadventures as he chases stardom armed with nothing but black suede shoes, a pompadour, and unrealistic dreams. A cult classic that captures the absurdity of fame-chasing in 1950s-inspired Americana.
