Johnny Suede

Johnny Suede

He's a heartbreaker... lover... loner. keeping up an image can be a full time job.

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.
