Angelina Jolie Talks to TIME

The actress, activist and writer-director on Bosnian Serbs, sex scenes and that Oscar pose By Belinda Luscombe | March 29, 2012 | Lucas Jackson/REUTERS What I really want to do is direct, is one of those old Hollywood jokes, but Angelina Jolie says she never planned on becoming a director. As she tells it, her film In the Land of Blood and Honey available now on DVD is the result of her simply following her desire to know more about the war in Yugoslavia. Ive always felt the responsibility because it was my generation, and it was one that I didnt understand enough and learn enough about, and we had such a delayed intervention, she said. She wrote the script as a kind of a research project and was talked into making it after it was read by a Hollywood big-shot: Brad Pitt. He wrote me a very nice note about it, and then we talked about it at length, and then we went back to the region together, she says in Time s 10 Questions this week (which you can read here ).

Angelina Jolie thinks 'Maleficent' will be "good" for young girls

She said: "It's not anti-princess, but it's the first time they're looking at this epic woman. "I hope in the end you see a woman who is capable of being many things, and just because she protects herself and is aggressive, it doesn't mean she can't have other [warmer] qualities. You have to figure out the puzzle of what she is. "It sounds really crazy to say that there will be something that's good for young girls in this, because it sounds like you're saying they should be a villain. [Maleficent] is actually a great person. But she's not perfect. She's far from perfect." Angelina - who raises six children with partner Brad Pitt - is particularly excited about the film because she gets to don horns for the part. She added to Entertainment Weekly: "I start it in June, and it's a really great script. I'm having a lot of fun. I've already got my horns fitted. My kids are very happy.

Angelina Jolie Talks Maleficent

Oscar winner Angelina Jolie recently opened up to Entertainment Weekly about her title role in Maleficent , Disney's upcoming reimagining of the Sleeping Beauty tale. "It's not anti-princess, but it's the first time they're looking at this epic woman," Jolie said of the project, which puts the villainous Maleficent front and center rather than Sleeping Beauty herself. Filming begins this June under the direction of Robert Stromberg. Jolie says her Maleficent will be both sympathetic and the villain of the piece. "I hope in the end you see a woman who is capable of being many things, and just because she protects herself and is aggressive, it doesn't mean she can't have other [warmer] qualities. You have to figure out the puzzle of what she is," said Jolie, who has already been fitted for her horns (although her character's final look has not yet been determined).

Angelina Jolie Says 'Maleficent' Isn't 'Anti-Princess'

by Fallon Prinzivalli Angelina Jolie 's "Maleficent" is finally ready to pounce. The Disney film starts shooting in June, and as we already know, the actress has loved the script from the start . The film, as its title suggests, will show another side of the witch, but that doesn't necessarily mean Princess Aurora is now the bad guy. "It's not anti-princess," Jolie told EW.com in a new interview. "But it's the first time they're looking at this epic woman... I hope in the end you see a woman who is capable of being many things, and just because she protects herself and is aggressive, it doesn't mean she can't have other [warmer] qualities." What exactly are those redeeming qualities? Jolie knows it's a bit odd to say "Malificent" will be good for young girls since she is the villain of " Sleeping Beauty ," but she believes the character is a "good person" when it comes down to it.

Angelina Jolie calls Congolese warlord conviction 'victory'

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (KABC) -- Angelina Jolie said the conviction of a Congolese warlord is a victory for former child soldiers. The actress and human rights activist was in The Hague, Netherlands on Wednesday when the court handed down the guilty verdicts against Thomas Lubanga.

And it's a really beautiful step toward ending of child soldiers around the world," Jolie said. Lubanga will be sentenced later this year. He faces a maximum of life in prison. Human rights advocates said the guilty verdicts against Lubanga - the first judgment in the court's 10-year history - should stand as a clear deterrent to armies around the world not to conscript children.

Angelina Jolie in court as ICC finds Congo warlord Thomas Lubanga guilty of using child soldiers

Judges ruled Thomas Lubanga was guilty of abducting children from the street and turning them into killers during intertribal wars in the Ituri district of eastern Democratic Republic of Congo that raged between 1998 and 2003. Angelina Jolie watched from the public gallery in the International Criminal Court in the Hague as the verdict was read out. After the session ended, Jolie spoke briefly to the media and gave her reaction to the verdict. "I think, the most important thing is, this is very young court, very new court, this particular case was about the conscription of child soldiers, so many witnesses, over sixty people came in, young people came in, and spoke about what happened to them and because they were unable to have court proceedings in their country, they asked for this, the victims asked for this, the country asked for this" she said. Lubanga will be sentenced at a later date but could face up to life in jail. Contains video from Reuters
