George Clooney: "Crowe Tried To Fight Me, DiCaprio Needs Guidance, But Pitt's Alright"

George Clooney, Russell Crowe and Leonardo Dicaprio are not best mates. They’re just not. But Clooney and Brad Pitt are solid bros. They’re solid bros. The Monuments Men actor/director/writer/producer was talking in an atypically candid interview with Esquire magazine.

Proving irrevocably that he’s a weird man, Crowe sent Clooney a book of his own poetry with a view to "apologise for insulting the shit out of me, which he did". According to Clooney, Crowe "picked a fight with me. He started it for no reason at all. He put out this thing saying, 'George Clooney, Harrison Ford, and Robert De Niro are sellouts.'"

Everyone’s favourite childhood-actor-who-turned-out-to-actually-be-quite-good Leonardo Dicaprio also comes under fire from Clooney, who isn’t particularly fond of the company he keeps, especially his 90s entourage, who seemed to view New York City as a public theme park, and its residence as toys.

"How important it is to have someone in your life to tell you what's what,” pondered George. “I'm not sure if Leo has someone like that."
