Angelina Jolie @ Cannes Film Festival 2007
Mon, 21 May 2007 at 8:36 am
Angelina Jolie (in Elie Tahari) attends the photo call for A Mighty Heart at The Cannes Film Festival on Monday morning.
“We all said through the whole thing, ‘If it doesn’t fall together right, we drop it - it’s too important,’” said Angelina. “I did finally speak to her [Mrs Pearl] days after she saw it, and she told me it was all right. For her to tell me that she felt it was done right, I can’t tell you how much that means to me.”
Marianne Pearl said she had asked Angelina to play the part because “she trusted her and I thought she understood me.”
Jolie added, “I was very, very nervous to get it right but Mariane seems to think we’ve done all right.”

FoxNews review
Jolie Film About Daniel Pearl Filmmaking of Highest Order
“A Mighty Heart,” Angelina Jolie’s film about the kidnapping and murder of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, had its first screening Monday morning at the Cannes Film Festival.
Simply put, the Michael Winterbottom film is an exceptional piece of work, deeply affecting and filmmaking of the highest order.
In purely Hollywood terms, the film is a certain Oscar nominee. Everyone involved in “A Mighty Heart” - from Winterbottom to Jolie as Pearl’s widow, Mariane, to Dan Futterman as Daniel Pearl - can be proud of a job very well done.
Based on the book by Mariane Pearl, the film follows the pregnant Mariane as searches for her husband following his disappearance in Karachi, Pakistan, in 2002. At the time, Daniel Pearl was writing a story about shoe bomber Richard Reid.
Winterbottom’s cinema verité-style only adds to the immediacy of the Pearl tragedy. This director has done a remarkable job.

More “Thank Yous” Jared!!! You truly keep us updated!!! Love Angelina, so beautiful!

Lovely face, though. She’s one of the most beautiful women ever.
Angie is freakin’ HOT!!!!!
Thanks Jared.
She has beauty,elegance,brains,personality,good hearts and Brad.
What a handsome couple. I’m so glad they’re together. I really did not care for Brad with Jen, at all. Not hating, think she a nice person, but all wrong for Brad. She just does not match his star quality like Angie does, and now that they have those adorable kids, they totally rock as a family!oosha
but, but, they’re supposed to be breaking up….. they were only playing house in prague, until cannes and their movies were released — then jolie was outta there. please, haters, tell me your posts from a couple of weeks ago were true! you were sooooo convincing. i thought fer sure you knew what you were talking about….
hanna- hi there
i keep meaning to say hi to you and then i get distracted, how are you?
MAMS- you are so cute with your “I’m going to post this everywhere!”
Even in the simple dress the women still gorgeos.Angelina is a beautiful women.
Brad is one lucky man.
Is good to be a bampzs these days.
Jared has my head spinning with all these threads! Woah, this great having all these “official” photos. I feel much better about looking them when they are photos they allowed to be taken….don’t like hearing about that French woman putting a camera an inch from Angie’s face, though.
Strap on your seat belts, kiddies, here we go! Cannes 2007 rocks so far!

Jolie Film About Daniel Pearl Filmmaking of Highest Order
================================================
Great reviews and from FoxNews at that!!!
Like oh my god.. Its like so totally pleasure overload.. Like totally!!
When the pics are taken closely, you can see how natural Angelina Jolie’s beauty is. She wears NEARLY no make up. She is naturally beautiful: full hair, soft skin with a rosa glow, beautiful eyes, well-formed mouth and full lips, she is tall, slender, has full breasts, etc. She is really blessed with beauty.
Her arms with the veins show that she is a person who doesn’t mind working hard and doesn’t care much about her beauty. Many other people such as actresses, models, celebrities or even normal citizen who are born beautiful or not beautiful but wish to be beautiful spend hours per day on taking care of their beauty and avoid any activities that might harm their appearance. For example they don’t carry anything heavy in order not to get veins on their arms.
This alone shows how deep and beautiful inside Angelina Jolie is.

It’s true Angelina can wear garbage bag and can still look beautiful.
hanna- so inconsiderate of mikey!
boys are good, one turned 5 last week, sheri is good too, she’s at work. 
She’s Beautiful inside and out!!!D Face, D hair and D body,A TOtal woman!Ahhhh What a love can do…………LOve and God bless them both!!!
This is what we are talking about: uncompromising, undisputable, unquestionable MOVIE STAR.
As I always say, when Angie decides to project, and turn on the charm, sexiness and femininity, there is nothing more to say.
SPECTACULAR!!!
she looks absolutely gorgeous and stunning and don’t think she’s even trying love her to bits
Mrs Pearl said she had asked Jolie to play the part because “she trusted her and I thought she understood me”.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/6676357.stm
of course Angie’s popular, she’s just too d@mn awesome
i remember recently watching “Workout” on Bravo, and Jackie (the gym owner) was joking around with the trainers about how she’s “been trying to get adopted by Angelina for years” lol
and then the other day at the Maxin Hot 100 party, there was an interview w/ Avril Lavigne, where she said she should’ve been number one (jokingly) but then added that “Angelina Jolie should be number one” —and i thought, “she speaks the truth!”
Jolie tells of Pearl ‘friendship’
By Stephen Robb
BBC News entertainment reporter in Cannes
Angelina Jolie and Mariane Pearl have spoken in Cannes about the friendship that brought them together on A Mighty Heart, about the 2002 murder of Mrs Pearl’s husband.
Mrs Pearl said she had asked Jolie to play the part because “she trusted her and I thought she understood me”.
“I was very, very nervous to get it right, but worked very, very hard to try,” said Jolie.
The film, directed by Britain’s Michael Winterbottom, has its premiere later.
US journalist Daniel Pearl was kidnapped in Pakistan in 2002 while investigating a story on radical Muslim groups for the Wall Street Journal.
A video CD was later delivered to the US authorities showing him being murdered.
‘Great responsibility’
A Mighty Heart is based on the book written by Mrs Pearl, and is screening out of competition at the 60th Cannes Film Festival.
“We all said through the whole thing, ‘If it doesn’t fall together right, we drop it - it’s too important,’” said Jolie.
She added: “I did finally speak to her [Mrs Pearl] days after she saw it, and she told me it was all right.
“For her to tell me that she felt it was done right, I can’t tell you how much that means to me.”
Brad Pitt, Jolie’s partner and producer of the film, said: “Everyone involved of course felt a great responsibility.
“We are very happy that the film maintained some dignity of Mariane and Daniel themselves.”
I prefer to stay at the Angie thread cause Angie is more interesting than Brad. LMAO!! Anyways, Angie is nearly perfect with the exception of her veiny arms.. SHE IS STUNNING!!! I’m surprised other stars like Gwyeneth Paltrow are getting the hot chick of a film roles.. Angie is NATURALLY IT.
I think the outfit is ok, but for a photo call in Cannes she could change her shoes - I’ve seen her with the same shoes already in the restaurant in Prague. I mean, this is to show her movie that she made with so much pride - she could make it a bit more special.
The shoes also make her legs look even skinnier - I mean, when she’s going down the stairs it looks like her legs are gonna cave under her weight.
VOILA!C’EST JOLIE!
#67 UR ALONE AGAINST…..counting….
Love the fact that her dress is understated yet pretty. Where can we see a video of the press conference?
HaHa…Marianne’s trust and friendship with Angie is killing the haters… Plus Angie’s future 2nd Oscar win for this role will give the haters a heart attack.. LOLZ…
Incomparable!!!! thats all!!!!
Here are some pictures of the press conference.

************************************************
This particular photocall needed to be more about the movie than glamour. I think she looks wonderfully appropriate.
And too, I think it would be wonderfully positive thing if Angelina and Brad were to start a trend of celebs being photographed more than once in the same clothes, shoes, handbag, etc… What’s the big deal if she wore the same shoes more than once? The world is too focused on consumerism, anyway. Materialistic goods and the lust for more and more are one of the things bringing the human race down. I say MORE POWER to anyone who can be a role model for “less is more”. I think Brad and Angie fit the bill perfectly.
Jolie est très jolie=Jolie is very beautiful

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie showed their love – and their new movie – to the world’s media Monday as they stepped out arm-in-arm at the Cannes Film Festival.

#76 AG….KEEP EM GOING BABE!
74#Well said dragonfly ita.
Mr and Mrs smith thank you for all the pics and links.
the circle of friends are glued to der computer with anger and a heart attack!
Start a trend of wearing the same clothes, etc?? Jeez, you really went far - do you think they are the only people?? Actually, it is the C listers and the celebrities who cannot afford stylists or whom designers do not give away things to the ones who repeat clothes and accessories.
I don’t know if wearing the same outfits would start a trend, what trend would that be? Normal people trend? that’s just ridiculous.
showed their love – and their new movie – to the world’s media Monday as they stepped out arm-in-arm at the Cannes Film Festival.
The couple attended a press conference to discuss A Mighty Heart – in which she stars and he produces, through his Plan B production company.
Jolie admitted she had trepidations about taking on the project and the role of Mariane Pearl, whose husband, Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, 38, was killed by Islamic militants in Pakistan in February 2002. (Actor and Oscar-winning Capote screenwriter Dan Futterman plays Daniel.) “I was very, very nervous to get it right,” said Jolie.
And the outcome? “Mariane seems to think we’ve done all right.”
Pitt, 43, and Jolie, 31, are staying at the exclusive Hotel du Cap, in a villa with their four children: Maddox, 5; Zahara, 2; Pax, 3; and Shiloh, who turns 1 this coming Sunday.
“We got here yesterday, and we had a beautiful day with our kids,” said Jolie, who flew in from the Czech Republic, where she is filming the movie Wanted, with Morgan Freeman. “We’ve been playing with them since the moment we landed, and we plan to go home to them as soon as we are done with this.”
As for her five-star hotel in France’s Cap d’Antibes. “It’s also a beautiful place, and we have an opportunity to enjoy it with our family and enjoy it as friends,” said Jolie.
Pitt said he was captivated by the Pearl story from the moment he started following it on CNN. “It was our goal to see this thing through,” said Pitt. “And to fight hatred.”
Jolie said that despite the serious nature of the film, which tracks Daniel’s kidnapping and his wife’s desperation to save him, she reamins able to smile in her downtime. “I am still capable of being silly and have fun,” she said.
At one point, Pitt humorously referred to his partner as “what’s-her-name” (when the press conference’s mediator unexpectedly asked him to comment on a question previously directed to Jolie). He also stressed his and her aim of working together to help improve the planet.
“As a father, too, I look at my kids and realize they will inherit this world,” said Pitt. “And we want to do everything we can to throw our weight in and make it a little bit better.
After the news gathering, PEOPLE asked Pitt how he was finding Cannes. “I’m enjoying it very much, man,” he replied.
MAMS- you are on fire today!! Love it!!!!
:lol:
WTG MAMS!!!
You are doing an awesome job on keeping us updated…..
Yes, lainey’s account of the AMH photocall is coming up. Here’s the appetizer.
__________
Finally. Finally I have seen them in person – who else but Brad and Angelina? I’ve been fortunate enough to be witness to many a crazy celebrity situation but nothing compared to the buzz today created around these two. Trust.
Many of you enjoy detail…full blow by blow below but suffice to say, given that I was just watching them with my smutty wonky eye – there was no recent break up and there will be no break up at least in the near future. For personal and professional reasons, these two are totally together.

ITA. You know, I was chatting with a friend not so long ago who was teasing me about my shoe fetish. I tend to buy Ballys and ferragamo shoes for work. With proper care and re-soleing, I realised that I have reached an age where I will probably never have to buy another pair of work shoes again. What I have are unlikely to wear out during my working life.

You’re doing a splendid job Mr and Mrs Smith! I am sure all this is simply more than the detractors can stand, I mean geez, they’ve had to deal with all the J-P’s being photoed in one frame, Angie carrying Shiloh, Angie and Brad laughing together AND smooching while trying to hide so nobody can claim *that* was “for show”, Angie and Brad together and laughing at Cannes photo call, AND to top it all off glowing reviews for AMH (with the added bonus of a report that MP actually asked Angie to play her)! Oh the agony the FF heifers must be in! LMAO!!
As Cliniqua would say, “Suck it haters!”
thanks GOD its victoria day in canada,i can stay here for the whole damn day.
Wow she looks better than i was expecting. looks like she’s been taking better care of the skin.
