Anything but a Hollywood sweetheart

The many facets of Angelina Jolie
At 33 Angelina lolie occupies a rare place within Hollywood’s uppermost tier of female stars. Wherever she goes, whatever she does, she cannot escape her several identities. The serious actress who won an Oscar for 1999's ‘Girl, Interrupted" and much acclaim for playing Mariane Pearl, widow of the murdered journalist Daniel Pearl, in last year's "Mighty Heart” is also the dominatrix-ish action dynamo who can open slam-bang guy movies, like this summer's "Wanted." There's also the humanitarian activist who has served as a United Nations good-will ambassador and is now a member of the Council on Foreign Relations. And there's her role as half of Brangelina, an unincorporated business that remains the celebrity magazine industry's best bet for surviving the economic crisis.
If Jolie finds the attention irritating, she's too smart to complain about it. But she admits that the wealth of available information about her could create a self-defeating conundrum. Her ever-growing fame could endanger her ability to do the very job that made her famous in the first place -- to make audiences believe she's somebody else. Ln short, to vanish.
"Can I do that?" she asks. "1 certainly hope so.
I wouldn't put myself forward to do a film like 'Changeling' if 1 thought I couldn't pull people into a story because of all the other ways people see me."
In "Changeling" Jolie plays Christine Collins, a switchboard supervisor and single mother in 1928 Los Angeles whose 9-year-old son is kidnapped. (The story has its roots in a series of gruesome killings known as the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders.) Five months after the child's disappearance, the Los Angeles Police Department hands her a boy it insists is her son, and department officials attempt to destroy her life when she , says they're wrong. The role, in which Jolie s* must embody the agony of not knowing if her only child has been murdered, puts her, in some ways, back in the wrenching territory of her last drama, “A Mighty Heart."
"Changeling" arrived at an especially painful moment for Jolie. In January 2007 her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died of ovarian cancer at 56. “My mom, she was a very, very soft woman," she said. “It was hard for her to yell, or even curse. But when it came to fighting for her kids, she found a strength she didn't always know she had. And there's a part of Christine that I connected to her. I kept pictures of my mom in the little purses"
that her character carries in the movie.
Grief hit Jolie hard - and led, oddly, not to "Changeling" but to "Wanted," a blood-splashed, R rated comic book adaptation in which she gives what she wryly called “my Clint Eastwood performance" as a ruthless, almost superhuman gunslinger who utters barely two dozen lines
"I knew instinctively that I needed something before Changeling,' ” she says. “I was depleted. I was in a state of just wanting to pull the covers over my head and cry about my mom. It was just too much. For me, there have been times when an action movie, even a 'Tomb Raider,' has helped me get out of myself and be physical again. It's
Sweetheart.”
A dark period, when Jolie was cast as the man eater who broke up Brad Pitt's marriage to Jennifer Aniston during the production of the 2005 caper "Mr. and Mrs. Smith," is behind her. And although in her 20s she was prone to provocative statements about blood and tattoos, in her early 30s she has learned how to feed the beast while making it serve her purposes Recently she and Pitt auctioned off pictures of themselves with their newborn twins to People and Hello! magazines, raising an astonishing $14 million for their charity, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.
Jolie has taken all of 2008 off from filmmaking
like therapy."
Since winning her Oscar almost 10 years ago Jolie has carved out a distinctive identity, unlike most other actresses of her age she is interchangeable with no one. Growing up, she says, she found her on-screen role models weren't actresses but rather "Al Pacino in 'Dog Day Afternoon,' Brando in 'Streetcar,' Nicholson --1 just always liked the men." That may be part of the reason she has become virtually the only current A-list actress to achieve her status while completely bypassing romantic comedies. Nobody is ever likely to call her "America's
and has only one movie lined up - the spy thriller "Edwin A Salt," which will begin production in February and which, in an indication of her box office clout in action films, was reconceived for her after Tom Cruise dropped out
In addition she will reprise her vocal performance as Tigress in the sequel to this summer’s “Kung Fu Panda" - the only one of her roughly three dozen movies that any of her children have seen. "It's a big hit in the house," she said. “Jack Black is like De Niro to the kids."
