Angelina Jolie - Marie Claire - January 2012

**dowcat** · December 7th, 2011, 01:45 PM

On the atrocities of 20th century warfare:
"I think it's still hard to understand what happened and hoiw it could happen 40 minutes away from Italy in the '90s at the time Schindler's List came out."
On writing 'In the Land of Blood and Honey':
"It began as a private exercise, an excuse to get out some of my frustrations [with] the international community and justice issues.
On filming 'In the Land of Blood and Honey':
"Some of the very darkest sections of the film were conceived in Shiloh's art class; I was in the back waiting for the kids to finish."
On working with her film's actresses:
"It was nice for me to play with other girls; I don't really have girlfriends in movies, if you've noticed... Well, I have a few girlfriends, I just... I stay at home a lot. I'm just not very social. I don't do a lot with them, and I'm very homebound."
On moving away from acting:
"...I woke up one day realizing, God, I'm an actor. I don;t think I intended to be an actor. I think my mother wanted it for me. I loved telling stories, and I enjoyed the profession, but is it too late to be something else?"
On having more kids:
"Nothing planned at the moment, but we just don't know. I could end up pregnant."
On Knox and Vivienne:
"Knox is very much a dude. Very physical, tough. He loves dinosaurs and swords. She [Vivienne] is so elegant and delicate. Vivi will pick flowers from the garden and put them in her hair. She likes to get her nails done and collects stuffed animals. It's very funny for me to have to buy all things pink and watch princess movies!"

**ManxMouse** · December 7th, 2011, 02:24 PM

Please. She hasn't looked like that in ten years.

**rollo** · December 7th, 2011, 03:38 PM

They've turned her into such a bimbo on the cover

The best one is with her old face in the third pic.

**greysfang** · December 7th, 2011, 03:43 PM

Haha, I was thinking she was doing the "Lindsay pose" on the cover!

I always thought she made a far better model than actress. Most of these look great. Yeah, photoshop helps, but still.

This is probably one of the rare occasions when the magazine would use photoshop to ADD weight onto her photos.

**Sarzy** · December 7th, 2011, 06:13 PM

^ Lol.
I like some of these. Her face can look so stunning.

**Honey** · December 8th, 2011, 07:54 PM

Third one is beautiful

**Laurent** · December 8th, 2011, 10:35 PM

Beautiful pics. Too bad she doesn't actually look like that anymore.

They must have had to do some serious photoshopping to get rid of the veins. Plus it seems they've added some volume to her face, thus making her look human.
