Brad Pitt and Quentin Tarantino are in the business of making movies, and cousin, business is a-boomin'! We were with a few of the 'Inglourious Basterds' themselves at the Nashville premiere of their action-packed World War II thriller, and you'll never guess who hosted the red carpet event… Al Gore!

"I had an opportunity to see a copy of it beforehand and I'm enthusiastic about the quality of the entertainment," says the former vice president. "I think it's a suspenseful, entertaining movie and I think people will like it. The main character's from Tennessee, I might add."

Al was there to show his support as a favor to the film's producer Lawrence Bender, who also produced Al's acclaimed documentary 'An Inconvenient Truth.' Quentin is a Tennessee native from the Knoxville area, and Brad's character, Aldo Raine, is from the Volunteer state.
