OlderAngelina Jolie and Oscar - Perfect Together
Newsweek has put together its 2008 Oscar roundtable including Angelina Jolie, George Clooney, Daniel Day-Lewis, Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard and James McAvoy.
Angie on A Mighty Heart:
“I was comfortable when Mariane [Pearl] was comfortable. But I wasn’t so comfortable the first day of shooting, when I realized his style was so unbelievably raw. There is often no rehearsal, no one saying “cut.” For example, you have three different rooms, and we would go into one room and we’d be talking, say our five lines, and he’d film us. Then I’d go pee, and I’d come out, and the camera was still on. So I’d think, “OK …” Then I’d say my five lines again, and that would turn into 10 more minutes of talking, and then someone would go get something from the kitchen and I’d go to my bedroom, and he’d follow me and he just wouldn’t leave. It was really odd. But it became just the most perfect way to shoot that film. It was chaos in that moment. It was very intimate, and my big fear was that something horrible might happen and the camera would be like this. [She gestures as though there’s a camera right in her face] But everybody was absolutely connected in every single moment. Even when we’d have lunch, we’d have it together at the table, or we’d all go for a walk together. We were just always present in the film. And so as an actor it brought me back to loving acting, and that was just great. But he does cross a line. One day one of the girls got sick and threw up, and he said, “Next time, tell us.” So he can be a little crazy. But I absolutely adore him.”

UGH….Perez is comparing Courtney Love and Angelina Jolie on his blog.
++++++++++++++++++++
He’s comparing CL’s hair to Angelina’s crazy characters hair in Girl interrupted. DUH!
What Pere is saying has nothing to do with this thread.
smut bish.
George and James are so funny, they sure make the roundtable more lively. Angelina and George were the biggest star, but Angie was quite humble, down to earth and as usual very articualte and eloquent. Marion was so frenchy and pretty, too bad she can’t convey herself freely with English.
I think Julie Christie and Marion were the the two frontrunner in Oscar, with Julie got the better shot. but I’ll be very happy if Angie was nominated . a nomination was already an aknowledgement and will always be in Angie’s resume.
I love it when women talk about peeing !!!!
Thanks for the new thread jared. Love ya angie!
I too thought that Angelina seemed nervous, unusually so for her. She constantly twisted the large gold band on her right hand. Her clothes were loose on her, big full blouse and loose skirt, much larger breasts especially in comparison to the other two women on the stage with her. When introduced last she moved very quickly to her seat. Her face is definitely fuller.
Just some observations. I know nothing. But something is different.
US claims in the new issue that when asked if Angelina was expecting, “Pitt’s rep said no, not to the best of my knowledge” . Rather cryptic, much like the answer NicoleK’s rep gave 2 weeks before she admitted she was pregnant., “No she is not, if she was pregnant every time someone said she was she would have 30 children”.
I will be keeping an eye on Angelina’s dress choices in the next couple of weeks, SAG, SB, NAACP, Indie Spirit, and Oscars (or whatever happens with those).
Okay? @ 01/18/2008 at 9:44 pm Angelina’s performance is strong enough to get nominated but not to win IMO. But that should be OK because Angelina has already won an Oscar and this nomination, if she gets it, is testament to her acting abilities.There s no pressure to win. There are better and stronger roles coming up in her future. she should win for that. But get this all you haters….she is the only American actress that’s been nominated for Best Actress. That’s right, there’s no one else who did better than Angelina did in 2007. Represent!
++++++++++++++=
Exactly !!!
where’s Halle, Hiliary, Reese ? they all have movie shown this year.
Angelina talks with her hands just as everyone in my family does. You either do or you don’t. So happy that she is a “doer”. So happy also to see that she has definitely gained some weight. She looks great.
WIN? she won’t even be nominated.

I’d rather Jolie win for Changeling. Marion’s role was iconic, and arguably the among the greatest in history. I have a feeling this is Marion’s only chance at Oscar,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I get your point. It depends on how the Academy decides to vote. If they want to give Marion her one chance they may but then again the film was hardly seen and sh eis a fairly unknown so that can go against her.
Julie Christie is not enough of a screen icon to warrant getting an Oscar for a film no one saw. I mean she is important - Dr. Zhivago is one of my favorite films - but she is known for “Shampoo” and a few other things and so the Academy won’t feel as if they owe her an Oscar.
Angie is so relevant right now. She is a globalist who believes in peace and human rights. Danny Pearl’ story reminds us what we are fighting for post 911 so it might be a symbolic gesture to honor Angie’s performance given that the subject matter is so on the top of the list of things affecting our lives - terrorism.
And she is a a Hollywood golden child who has grown and is proof of a woman evolving in Hollywood.
I think given all this the Oscar is Angie’s this year.
——–
I’m judging it based on precursors. Marion, Julie, and Ellen have all the critics awards/GGs/Satelites/CCAs..Marion is also everyone’s favourite performance to win.
Is there a Jen thread?
I’m sure Angie will be nominated for Oscar
Now i think she is pregnant. She will keep secret as long as possible to avoid the “baby bump watch”. Time will tell.
Anyways she looks beautiful as ever.
Thanks Jared for the new thread
In recent years, we have seen a lot of great British, Aussie, Canadian even South African or French Actresses. and these are the actresses who always end up winning the best acting award.
What happen to American actresses ? Could it be that too commericalization of movie industry that hurt some potentiat talented actresses. Itt would be sad the American movie industry are left with likes of the three Jessica’s (Alba, Biel, Simpsom) and Aniston.

You dont’t Know nothing about “****”., much less about movies.
Get out loser.
“****” means Mierda
So are she (Angelina) and Brad Pitt, 44, expecting? Pitt’s rep tells US ” they are not, to the best of my knowledge”.
Short 1 page US article has pix of Angie standing at CCA, describes her as noticebly fuller figured with a visibly rounder midsection at CCA, said she only drank water at CCA, and ate beef, not sushi at Katsuya. Also said she was beautiful and glowing at CCA.
Tab cra* but positive as well as speculative. If they are expecting one thing is certain, time will tell.

Yeah, and JLo, she and her family continue to denied preganncy even with obvious bump .
i cant believe people still actually think she’ll win an oscar. lmaooooooo
Is this for the Academy? What is this? I like Marion C. too.
Fug,
What up? Watch it man…come on now. Let it go son.
Ohh, and the little James Mc. f ucked the **** out of Kerrie Washington in the Last King of Scotland. Boy had back. Haha
Thanks for this new Jared. Will definitely get this issue of Newsweek.
Anyone who knows anything about acting and is not a hater and saw AMH knows Angie gave a performance more than worthy of an Oscar nomination. The woman’s face is plastered all over the tabloids yet she had you believe she was M. Pearl. It was a great performance.
time will tell if she is nominated or not.
If Angelina is pregnant, I’m sure they are hoping it won’t come out until she is well into her second trimester. Just yesterday, the singer who pregnancy was announced the same time Nicole Kidman one was suffered a miscarriage. I would hope that the press/paparazzi wwill be smart enough to bring up that to someone who has lost a baby.
Just finishing watching the videos of the Oscar Roundtable and I like it a lot, love watching those guys and it was also funny at times
Why some pregnant women in US avoid sushi ?
I never heard that thing in Japan.
I’m not much sushi fan but I was eager to eat sushi everyday when i was between 2-3 months pegnant. Do you know sushi rice uses a lot of vinegar with sugar. I wanted acetic food at that time. Some pregnant woman takes lemon but in my case it was sushi.
just some observations @ 01/18/2008 at 10:10 pm
ITA…the next few weeks will tell the tale.
Just finished watching the Roundtable video. Mygawd I have another reason to dislike GC. When the moderator asked Angie about bringing the press along when they visit disadvantaged countries. Ohmygawd she didn’t get a chance to answer because GC jumped in and answered the question. She made another attempt and he started talking again. It was as though he needed to answer for her. He was annoying as h*ll.
PT are you out there. I posted an article on GC on the previous thread. You should read it. You will enjoy it. Peace
