Angelina Jolie is grateful for Golden Globe nod
Entertainment Tonight has spoken with Angelina Jolie about her Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress in A Mighty Heart. She told ET:
“‘A Mighty Heart’ means a lot to me as do all who worked on it and I am very grateful to be acknowledged.”
The short article also points out that she has already won a Golden Globe three times before - Best Supporting Actress in a Miniseries or TV Movie for George Wallace, Best Actress in a Miniseries or TV Movie for Gia, and Best Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture for Girl, Interrupted.
(Girl Interrupted was when she turned from being an actress I loved to my all-time favorite because she completely blew my previous favorite actress - Winona Ryder - out of the water in that movie. Also, I don’t know why I didn’t know this, but I never realized that Gia was in the miniseries/TV movie category. I have the video and always thought it was a lower budget motion picture. It’s got some awfully racy scenes for TV, was it an HBO film by any chance? Because HBO is one of the few networks that would play some of those nude scenes.)

Yay! I just loved A Mighty Heart. It’s funny, of course, I know she is a great actress, but I think she was really amazing here.
Has anyone seen that commercial for the movie where they ask her (as Marianne) what she would say to her husband. And she said “I love you” which is the most cliched, boring phrase in the English language. BUT Angelina somehow gave it meaning again. Wow…That is acting. It reminded me of why I liked the film so much. Anyway, she was brilliant in AMH, and really deserves the nomination.

I’m rooting for her and Marion Cotillard. Marion has always reminded me of Angelina, too. They share a certain resemblance (probably their built) and they both exude a strong and independent personality. I love it.

Does someone know if Brad will be the guest at Regis & Kelly tomorrow? Someone said he will also be at Charlie Rose show at night. I hope, the weather improves up North. Sherry, I’ve seen how your weather right now in Toronto, it is really so bad, Toronto is covered with how many feet of snow?

I watched AMM 3x, excellent movie. I print out all the movies that are nominated for the up coming GGAwards. I will try to watch all of it and see how the other nominee/actress did. We all cross our fingers for AJ.
irma….I did mentioned the Regis and Kelly but unable to provide the source I was watching the news a couple of days ago here in Hawaii it should be air tomorrow.

Seeing that picture reminds me when she was interviewed by the two little boys for Sharktale. The bit where the little boys tell her she has a big mouth and ask her to open her mouth really wide. I liked that bit. It was so cute.

I had no idea Gia or George Wallace was on HBO, myself. If anyone hears that either one will be on, again, please post it. I don’t post every time I am on here but I do read it everday.
I am so pleased Angie was nominated, she is so talented, smart, honest & funny. Her candor is like no other actor & is much appreciated. I too, hope she wins.

and finally, i just checked the MIR website and 37 houses have been sponsered already. It’s such a great job they’re doing.

I think Angie is one of the rare actress today that speaks so eloquently. She has the brain and the beauty. To hear her talk is mezmering.
Brad, on the other hand, sometimes stumbles with certain words and phrases. He’s much improved now but not quite in the same league as Angie.

Sherry,
“Gia” was indeed an HBO made for television mini-series (I recall watching it and thinking “Who is this beautiful young woman?). Here’s the Wikipedia link F.Y.I. Oh, and thanks for sharing all of this wonderful Brad/Angelina news with us! :)

Thanks for all the links. I’d looove to have a picture of Angelina when she opened her mouth as wide as she could. In spirit, she was just as childlike as the boys.
Wow! Is Pax’s costume a peacock? What an elaborate peacock. I’d love to know if the occasion was Halloween or something else. It reminds me of when my costume was a red robin for my elementary school’s Easter pageant in 1st grade.

Hhmm the pic is cute. But I think it isnt from halloween, in one of the interviews Angie told that Pax got a monkey costume for Halloween (Sherry wrote it)… Maybe it is from his birthday party??? Has anybody heard how they celebrated?
Dont know if you red the article to the image. It belongs to a report that all parents of adopted children from Vietnam have to send regularly during the first four years after the adoption. The image is one of the two pics that Angie and Brad added to the report. Maybe well see another supercutie pic when Angie sends the next report to Vietnam :)

Another beautiful picture of Angie.She is soo gorgeous.Why she won’t marry her hunk of a man and father of her kids,I have NO idea.Maybe she will say YES for Christmas

Charlotte;
It’s Brad that’s got ‘issues’ with marrying…”We will marry when everyone can!”
Angie when asked said it was only said to make a political point and kind of suggested its not set in stone.

You know how the tabs see celebs talking to each other, then report that the couple are dating? And when a couple really are dating for a couple of weeks, the tabs pester them about when they’ll get married? Then the day after the wedding, tabs are asking them to have kids?
What’s the rush, I ask? Hollywood’s like a pressure cooker on relationships - a lot more stress & strain than on the average relationship (which is stressful in and of itself).
The rush seems to me a sure-fire road to divorce.
Besides, I think it would be good for them to take it easy for awhile. If I had their schedule this year, my head would have exploded a long time ago.
Pax has only been part of the family for a few months - he still needs extra attention. A pause in adding to their family might be good because their family grew pretty fast from Zahara to Pax. And Angelina is still grieving for her mom Marcheline.
Angelina released 2 movies (AMH, B) and filmed 2 (W & C). Brad released 2 movies (O13, AOJJ, AMH) and filmed 2 (CCBB, BAR), plus 17 producing projects on his plate (including the one Angie’s co-producing on aid workers). Not to forget raising money for Darfur at the O13 premieres.
The Make It Right/Project Pink & Global Green take a huge amount of time & work. Besides writing op-eds for the Economist and the Washington Post, Angie visited Chad/Darfur, Syria &I raq to visit refugees, and U.S. & multi-national troops.
They oversee their foundation; Angie’s on Global Action for Children’s board & co-chairs the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict, plus participates in the Council on Foreign Relations.
There’s all the media appearances to promote their films & humanitarian work.
WOO!, I think a lot of peace & quiet down time would do them good!
I would be ecstatic if for one week, Ange & Brad weren’t in the tabs. Or if they were only on one cover a week.
I think throwing a wedding into this mix would be just like throwing gasoline on a fire. I like Brad’s statement about considering marriage when everyone is legally able. And like Sherry said on another thread, similar to what Angie has said, and what I practiced with my honeybunny - it’s the commitment to each other and to the children that’s important. There can be a ceremony & a piece of paper, but without
commitment, they’re not worth much.
