Movie stars love to show the world they are more than just a pretty face. Then again, they also love making millions of dollars off of that face. Brad Pitt -- whose facial prettiness is the stuff of legend -- has gone for some odd looks in movies over the years. But let's face it: he could spackle his hair with river mud and tattoo obscenities to his forehead and women would still swoon at the sight of him.

Let's look through a few of Brad's other more eccentric movie looks and see, within his rarified realm of male beauty, whether he's hot or not. Or you can jump over to watch the 'stache in action in exclusive trailer for "Inglorious Basterds" here.

Brad's still in great shape at 45, but overly moussed skunk-stripes don't work at any age.
