Jolie dismisses talk of marriage
Angelina Jolie has dismissed ongoing speculation about marriage and more kids with her partner Brad Pitt, telling Vanity Fair in an interview published on Tuesday that there are “no secret wedding plans.”
The Oscar-winning actress revealed details of her upcoming wartime romance film, In the Land of Blood and Honey, which she directed. She told Vanity Fair magazine that feared stepping behind the camera for the first time.
“I’ve never felt more exposed. My whole career, I’ve hidden behind other people’s words,” Jolie said. “Now it’s me talking. You feel ridiculous when you get something wrong.”
The actress, who penned the script during a two day quarantine period when she had the flu, said she had Pitt read it over first. “He called and said, ‘You know, honey, it’s not that bad,’” Jolie told the magazine.
The story follows a couple’s love affair during the Bosnian war, and Jolie made sure to get the script as accurate as possible by sending it to reporters and writers of Serbian and Bosnian nationalities who had experienced the war.
“I was gauging the accuracy...If they said no, I wouldn’t have done it,” she said.
But the movie did cause controversy last year when the leader of a woman’s group in Sarajevo urged city officials to ban shooting the film in Bosnia. She complained that the love story was offensive because it was between a Bosnian woman and Serbian man.
At the time, Jolie said she hoped people would withhold any judgement until that had seen the film, which is expected to hit theatres in December of this year.
