Bradley Cooper is being honored by his friend Brad Pitt at the Santa Barbara Film Festival. Pitt presented Cooper with the outstanding performer of the year award for his outstanding work in the biopic Maestro, which he directed and co-wrote.
During his speech, Pitt humorously pointed out the similarities between himself and Cooper, including their status as movie superstars and their shared name. Pitt also reminisced about his early recognition of Cooper's talent, particularly in the film The Hangover, where Cooper brought a fresh and subtle performance to his character.
