Angelina Jolie spoke with the BBC and there are three great clips up on their site. In the first clip, Angelina talks about the struggle behind her decision to take on Changeling and speaks highly of Clint Eastwood who was part of her reason for taking the role. He truly sounds like a dream director.
In this clip, Angelina explains the decision to sell their baby photos. I’m glad she addressed it because my goodness, I am so tired of reading and hearing the snark about that. The reason that she gave for her and Brad Pitt deciding to sell the photos is pretty much what I’ve been saying all along.
She also talks a bit about how much she’s changed since her younger actress days. I like how the interviewer said that it’s hard, sometimes, for other people to look at her when she’s a movie star and remember that she’s just an ordinary mom at home.
Of course, I also like that while Angelina agreed with her but said that she likes to think that a lot of people, especially other mothers, can see through the glamor and see that she’s not that different in the end.
In the other clip, Angelina discusses why she might stop acting for the chance to be with her children as much as possible. She also laughs about the future when she’ll be a grandmother and says that she just like being home and that she feels she has a big responsibility to her children more than anything else.
What did you think about the interview?

Mary, thanks for the link. Great interview and Angie sounds so happy. She seems to be treasuring every single minute that she has with Brad and the kids. I wish they will remain happy forever to see their children and grandchildren grow up!

i love when angie speaks about “problems” she has to raise her kids: it shows us that she is a normal mother, and too an aware people, who care about her kids’fellings (i think the moment she spoke about Z who want “straight hair like mummy” is cute cute cute!”. in every interview they do, we can “see” that they are really really proud of the family they have created.
brad and her seem to have such a sweet relationship, with so much love around them and for each member of their family. it’s nice!

I for some reason have not be able to catch up on all the news here at Pittwatch, but with the weekend coming up I hope to catch up and watch all of these clips. And I still haven’t read all the comments on the discussion thread. I certainly would miss Angie if she didn’t make films.

[...] may be the last film we see Jolie in for awhile, as she has said she is fading away from acting. I am looking forward to seeing Jolie in this [...]
