Angelina Jolie's movie pain
Monday, 13 October 2008
Angelina Jolie's new movie role is the most "painful" part she has played.
The actress can soon be seen in 'Changeling' and says she found portraying a woman whose child is kidnapped, only for another boy to be returned to her, was even harder than portraying widow Mariane Pearl in 'A Mighty Heart'.
She said: "It was even more devastating doing 'Changeling'. Certainly, Mariane Pearl lost her husband in the most horrific way. But I think even she might agree that the loss of a child and not knowing where they are or what is happening to them is probably the absolute worst thing in the world.
"As a mother, it was harder for me imagining that somebody was abusing my child while they were wondering why mommy wasn't coming to save them. As a mother, that's just the worst possible scenario. So this film was very, very painful."
Angelina admitted that many people will be surprised the movie is based on a true story, because it seems such an unlikely tale.
She added to Parade.com: "I could hardly believe it when I read the script. If it wasn't real, everybody would just say it's too far fetched to be true. But this is about an actual woman who fought the system and found justice in the end, even at the risk of her own life."
