As he accepted the gold cup accolade from the mistress of ceremonies, Brad said: "Well, you can run but you can't hide. It was an honour to receive this last year and it's an honour to receive it this year. Thank you very much."
Brad's presence at the festival - which he is attending with his 'Burn After Reading' co-star and close friend George Clooney - is his first public appearance since partner Angelina Jolie gave birth to the couple's twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline in July.
'Burn After Reading' - directed by the legendary Coen brothers - is in line to win the prestigious Golden Lion prize, which will be awarded to the best film on the festival's closing night on September 6.
