Angelina Jolie @ Cannes Film Festival 2007

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!!!

Mrs Pearl said she had asked Jolie to play the part because “she trusted her and I thought she understood me”.

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 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.

#76 AG….KEEP EM GOING BABE!

the circle of friends are glued to der computer with anger and a heart attack!

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.

WTG MAMS!!!

You are doing an awesome job on keeping us updated…..

************************************************

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.

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.
