Place in Time: Angelina Jolie’s New Documentary

http://vineberg.blogspot.com/2007/04/place…jolies-new.html

Tonight I was invited by my dear brother Natabara Rollosson to attend the premiere of Angelina Jolie’s new documentary film, A Place in Time, at the Tribeca Film Festival.

A Place in Time is an experimental documentary that seeks to capture both the diversity of life around the globe and the commonality of the human spirit by filming in many places around the world at the same moment.

Having traveled the world for years to promote peace, I do believe that we can transcend the barriers of national borders, religions and cultures, and embrace our common dreams, hopes and aspirations. I mean…what is the alternative? What Angelina has sought to do with this film, is to bring our commonalities to life.

Her canvas is the world — it’s people, animals, and geography. Our lens is her compassion-heart. She has enlisted her actor friends and others – including my friend Natabara featured in China – to facilitate the story. Among them, actors Sean Astin (Agentina), Colin Farrell (Italy), Ryan Gosline (Chad), Anne Hathaway (Cambodia) , Djimon Hounsou (Los Angeles, CA), Jude Law (New Orleans, LA), and Hillary Swank (New York, NY).

Each person flew to a unique location in the world with a handheld camera. The crews filmed what they saw around them, as they prepared for the big moment – when everyone would turn on their cameras for three minutes. On January 11, 2005 at 12 noon Greenwich Mean Time, those cameras rolled in 27 locations – including USA (Wisconsin, NY, Nevada, Louisiana, South Dakota and California), Chad, Niger, Kosovo, Italy, Chad, China, Jordan, Lebanon, Mexico, Iceland, Antarctica and elsewhere.

And underlying the powerful imagery was an extraordinary musical score that lifted the film, written and performed by the great Wyclef Jean.

Why is a film like this needed? Simple. We need to educate children of developed nations, especially, who will be the leaders of tomorrow. Unfortunately, it will take decades to solve today’s problems.

Having worked in support of peace and global understanding through my own efforts as organizer of the Global Peace Run and at the United Nations, I believe Angelina has succeeded with this huge undertaking. And there are moments in the film that brought me to tears because I was overwhelmed by the pain and suffering of those less fortunate.

Angelina Jolie was appointed UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador in August 2001. To raise awareness and support for refugees she has traveled to Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Balkans and the North Caucasus. Jolie has also been a generous contributor to UNHCR’s programs around the world.

After the film, I had a chance to speak extensively with her. I’ve worked with dozens of celebrities. Many are talking heads who really care little for the causes they stand for. They do it because it makes good PR sense.

Angelina Jolie does it because she cares. And her presence is radiant. You can feel qualities of love, devotion, humility, poise, beauty and compassion. Her voice is thoughtful and intelligent. And she uses her power of her celebrity -in her life and through this film - to focus our attention and the media’s lens and pen - on key issues: refugee rights, the AIDS epidemic in Africa, poverty in Haiti and Niger, the conflict in Kosovo, global warming, victims of land mines in Cambodia and rehabilitation programs that provide them with needed prostheses and wheelchairs.

She mentioned that yesterday she visited the White House, Congress and met with the Council on Foreign Relations. Bless her!

Natabara and I offered to do whatever we can to assist her in promoting this fine film and all her good work. Stay tuned.

I feel like putting that on a t-shirt. Thanks for posting :D

Angie is a strong beautiful woman who lives life full-on and out loud. She has always been a complex and deep person, that’s why she caught my attention in the first place. As she herself has described, when she was younger she didn’t have a place to channel all her angst and pent-up feelings, so that led to acting out sexually and exploring her darker side… a darker side we ALL have but fail to admit, and certainly won’t explore. She knows herself incredibly well now because she has “been there, done that”. She is evolving and growing into a multi-layered, multi-faceted superstar right before our eyes, and I for one find it interesting. She’s not your common run-of-the-mill actress, she has an old soul and feels emotion intensely. She’s moved on to other forms of expression now that are not as fragmented and sporatic, and she has no need to act out sexually anymore. Brad has given that to her.

Now that she has apparently found a partner that truly knows what she needs and “gets” her, she now has a place to focus all her passion, both for him, and for the others with whom she empathizes. Also, it’s truly glorious that they are determined NOT to be one of these typical celeb couples who are permanently joined at the hip in public like some kind of two-headed monster a la TomKat. B&A are tight and together, but two separate people who love and support each other. They are doing a splendid job of overcoming the dumbazz “Brangelina” moniker. Good for them!

People like Brad and Angie really do “push each other to become better” at everything they do. That’s why we are seeing them both just exploding all over. They spark creativity and passion for all things in each other. And that means they are having the best kind of intercourse…the intellectual kind! (You didn’t think I was going to say that, did you? haha!!) But it’s true, the real love of your life has to satisfy BOTH the physical and intellectual spheres. It appears to me B&A stimulate each other’s minds as well the body. That’s proof enough that they have what it takes to make it for years and years. Didn’t Angie say it was wonderful to have Brad in her life because she can talk to him about the things she cares about? This means he actually listens, and he cares what she is thinking. Shooooot, a woman like Angie knows that doesn’t come along every day. Men like that aren’t terribly common. She knows Brad’s a keeper.

So naturally, anytime Angie steps out of the house and is asserting herself independently (with total back-up from her honey, of course), the small-minded people who are not capable of understanding these things are going to be accusatory at the lowest level of the id. Because that’s all their unevolved little reptilian brains can process. This is life on a plane of existence a pea brain will never comprehend….it’s called “can’t see the forest for the trees”, you know.

Meanwhile, Brad is back home at Casa de Jolie-Pitt, beaming with pride over her accomplishements and encouraging her to do her “thang” in this world. Because that’s what you do when you love someone completely.

And he knows she will be there for him to reciprocate in kind. She does this for him, he does it for her. They have shown already that they do this for each other. I say, let the naysayers keep right on bleating out “Nay!”, “Nay!” until they turn blue in the face…. true idiocy is repeating the same behavior over and over and never getting results. Maybe eventually some of them will figure out they aren’t going to change anything in Angie and Brad’s Universe. Myself, I’d much rather just sit back and enjoy following their respective careers.

Nothing but love for the Jolie-Pitts!

I would love to meet Angelina Jolie. I think that she is the most remarkable young
woman. How fortunate her children are and how lucky Brad Pitt is to have her. Love and good health to the Jolie-Pitts always.
