OlderAngelina Jolie @ “A Mighty Heart” Screening
Angelina Jolie stands beside co-star Dan Futterman and Judea and Ruth Pearl (Daniel Pearl’s parents) at a special benefit screening of A Mighty Heart on Wednesday at the Museum of Tolerance in Los Angeles, Calif. (Bigger picture inside…)
“I hope we got some part of Danny’s life and spirit in this movie,” Jolie said to Judea and Ruth. “I hope that we have made something that speaks to you and to his work.”
The sold-out event raised more than $15,000 for the Daniel Pearl Foundation which was formed in memory of journalist Daniel Pearl and is committed to promoting cross-cultural understanding through journalism, music, and innovative communications.
Just Jared caught a screening of A Mighty Heart last night and let’s just say it was beyond moving. [Spoilers ahead!] The documentary-style drama is very real and very emotional. The UK Times summed up the editing best: “The director’s rapid-fire and choppy editing gives you a genuine feel for the many different sides of Karachi, and the urgency of the investigation.”
Angie’s screams of anguish as Marianne Pearl are intense and will have you writhing in your theater seat. Memorable moments include the wedding flashback scene, Angelina dancing (with a bit of tummy showing, if I remember correctly) and the birthing scene of son Adam.
But don’t fret my pets, the ending scene is sweet. There are captions of “current updates” about the Pearls as you watch the backs of Marianne and Adam walking away hand-in-hand. The music also perfectly matched up — I was whistling the tune on my way out of the theater!
A Mighty Heart opens June 22. Catch it if you can!

#88 / What is going on
I agree with you. I’m sorry if this doesn’t sit well with some JP fans but you can’t keep flagging comments just because they aren’t positive comments. You call more attention to these stupid comments (not to talk of giving the writers more importance than they are worth). I see people getting worked up because someone said BP needs a Botox….I mean seriously?!!
The flag button was put in place for Racist and truly disgusting comments. Let’s not abuse it or we might lose it. Think about it, everytime we flag, Jared has to take time off from whatever he’s doing to look through the posts. I’m sure it’s time consuming and who knows, he just might decide it’s not worth the headache (he probably won’t but still…let’s be a little wise with the way we use the button)

that was HILARIOUS!!!!
Jolie can’t keep a man because she’s too whiney and i will bet a dollar she’s a serious drama queen, never happy with herself, never happy with her lovers/husband.
Brad will bolt just like BBT did.

Wow!!! Navigating my way past the $hit-losers…
Thank you, Jared. You must be doing a good job when ‘posters’ are trying to divert your regulars to ‘fan-friendly’ sites. Here’s hoping that my regular participation is fattening your pockets!
The trolls are fun today. I’ll love to send them to a desert island with Cliniqua
Thanks JJ for the review. I can’t wait to see the movie but I’m def. going to bring some tissue b/c it seems like a very emotional movie.
AG…I agree with you. I say let the haters post those dumb a s s comments for it truly shows how sad and looney they really are. And to think, they should be really happy considering what is going on.

People when will you learn?
Jared is USING you to get SITEHITS. If he really cared about you he’d BAN the haters, but he’s just using you. Why do you allow this to happen? Would you allow your chef to stick your food in his pants and then keep eating at that restaurant?
GO TO SOULIE JOLIE, go to the FANSITES where haters can’t post! I mean how stupid are you people?
I can’t wait to see this movie! Thanks JJ for the commentary. Its true, sometimes many people including myself try to avoid ‘heavy’ movies and prefer seeing Hollywood fluff as an escape from day-to-day life. But for beautiful Angie, I will go see AMH.
Usually I feel that serious movies are too hard to watch and make my life feel more burdened. I feel I have enough things to worry about. How shameful really.
Then you have someone like Angie: rich, beautiful, successful. No one would blink an eye if all she did was tan, party, shop and vacation in luxurious resorts. Heck, that sounds like most of the people in Hollywood.
But no, she goes out and gives of herself to make the world better. Ironic that her very selflessness makes her talked about and hated by small-minded people.
Angie, I wish I was more like you! What an inspiration you are.
