Changeling

Just a dam good film, really enjoyed it so recommended 100%

and for a true story it just makes you think how bad it must have been for her,

[Dark Knight]

I keep forgetting to get this one...... Cowsocks keeps asking, must move it up my list

Absolutly worth watching - thanks for the tipp. Angelina Jolie shows that she is indeed a really great actress and not only the worlds most famous supermom. decent directing - as alway in a Eastwood movie. His storytelling is amazing and I, he simply trusts the strength of his material. Very good blu-ray transfer too.

I'm trying to think what the last geniunely good piece of acting Angelina Jolie put in before this film..

[Dude]

There are actually a few ones_

- Gia (her break-out role)
- Mojave Moon (Insider Tip, great discovery)
- Playing by Heart (one of my favourite films overall: great cast and a dialogue driven L.A. / Love / Episode movie)
- Girl Interupted

As you can see they all are a little older. Since then she has become the nr. 1 celebrity on the planet - and that has tarnished her reputation as an actress. The same thing has happened to other celebs. I think it becomes harder to be taken seriously as an actor if your picture is plastered on every tabloid and entertainment news show.
I like her in almost all of her films, but her choice of roles has been very poor, but I liked Wanted and even more Changeling and are actuallly hoping to see more of her in "serious" roles.

Thanks for the recommendation Frank, I'll have to give - Playing by Heart a look.

@ Smackos It is a real good movie, and I bought the UK DVD actually during one of my visits to Ireland in a Dublin hmv shop (for about 5€ :=) ). If this gets a HD transfer I'm the first to buy
