.....ctors with great looks and talent to match are
a dime a dozen. Armed with thousand-watt smiles and a burning devotion
to their craft, they flood casting agencies, resumes and head shots
in hand, hoping to land that serendipitous role that will put them
on the map — or at least pay the rent. For the painfully vast
majority of hopefuls, mining for that lucky break can be a disappointing
and humbling endeavor; the harsh reality of show business is that
only a scant number will ever earn a decent, consistent income by
acting, let alone be cast in a film financed by a major studio.
Of another breed altogether are movie stars, and what distinguishes
movie stars from the thousands of actors who aren't movie stars is
Presence. To be sure, Presence often owes a debt to beauty and skill,
but it's an attribute that more importantly embraces a fearless, passionate,
and truthful perspective. Actors who have it can succeed in making
otherwise atrocious films worth seeing. They steal scenes away from
the principals without any perceivable effort, dominating movies in
supporting roles. To illustrate this quality in operation, consider,
please, the career of movie star Angelina Jolie, who is an exemplar
of what Presence can do for a girl.
"Just look at that beautiful face and all the intelligence
that it has and all the passion. It's quite extraordinary,"
says actor Jon Voight, who, admittedly, is not the most unbiased
observer, considering that the Oscar-winning actor is Jolie's father.
Born to Voight and actress Marcheline Bertrand, Jolie began studying
acting at the Lee Strasberg Theater Institute at age 11. She was
even more precocious than that, having made her screen debut six
years earlier alongside papa Jon in the Hal Ashby-directed comedy
Lookin' to Get Out, an obscure film that will likely one day be
remembered only as an answer to an equally obscure Angelina Jolie
trivia question.
Eschewing her youthful dream of becoming a funeral director, Jolie
struck out on her own at age 16, finding work as a professional
model and appearing in a handful of music videos (for the likes
of Meatloaf, the Lemonheads, Lenny Kravitz, and the Rolling Stones),
and entering film studies at New York University. She eventually
gravitated back to acting in a more formalized setting, joining
the Met Theatre Group in Los Angeles, where she studied alongside
esteemed actors Ed Harris and Holly Hunter. "I didn't know
exactly what I wanted, but I knew I could know," the actress
told Mr. Showbiz about her rekindled interest in theatrics. "I
loved some kind of expression … I want[ed] so much to try to
explain things to somebody … I'm very good at trying to explore
different emotions and listen to people and feel things. That is
an actor, I think."
To be sure, Jolie's first explorations were underwhelming —
a supporting role as a human-machine hybrid in the 1993 direct-to-video
sci-fier Cyborg II: Glass Shadows preceded her first lead outing
in the 1995 cyber-thriller Hackers. A confusing, muddled effort,
Hackers nonetheless proved to be a significant milestone for several
reasons: it got theatrical release; Jolie's performance received
some of the only good notices afforded the marginally deplorable
film; and, on a more personal level, the venture put her in the
company of a free-spirited British actor named Jonny Lee Miller.
After a brief courtship, the co-stars were wed in a ceremony that
epitomized Jolie's over-the-top approach to life. The nuptials also
earned her the first bad reviews of her career. The bride wore black
— black rubber pants, to be more specific — and topped
off her ensemble by writing her groom's name in blood across the
back of her shirt. "It's your husband," she explained
to the New York Times. "You're about to marry him. You can
sacrifice a little to make it really special." Sacrifice notwithstanding,
the two separated, if not before the blood could dry, within a year;
their divorce became final in 2000.
Jolie's bit of matrimonial notoriety didn't stanch the flow of
career opportunities. She set about essaying a diverse range of
roles, all of which brought her glowing notices, attesting to the
fact that she possessed that elusive quality, Presence, in spades.
She piqued critics' interest with her performance as a self-possessed
teen drifter (appropriately called "Legs") who incites
female students at a small-town high school to stand up for themselves
in the 1996 Joyce Carol Oates adaptation
Foxfire. Her magnetism also stood her in good stead in her role
as a star-crossed Italian girl in love with the son of her restaurateur
family's business rival in the club-footed romance Love Is All There
Is (also 1996). She struck a more serious
chord as a drug-addicted teen in the 1995 based-in-fact suspense
flick Without Evidence, and she wrested a surprising amount of dignity
from her supporting turn as a gangster moll caught between the affections
of her kingpin boyfriend and the mob doctor in his employ in the
woebegone David Duchovny-starrer Playing God (1997).
Unfortunately, precious few people saw the films.
At the same time that moviegoers were turning an indifferent shoulder
to Jolie's film efforts, a brace of small-screen outings were netting
her plenty of positive attention. Her impassioned and intense portrayal
of Cornelia Wallace — to Gary Sinise's equally excellent title
turn — in the 1997 TV movie George Wallace garnered her a Best
Supporting Actress Golden Globe and an Emmy nomination. But her
star was truly set ablaze by another galvanizing biopic portrayal
— this time as the drug-addicted, AIDS-afflicted model Gia
Carangi in the 1998 HBO-produced Gia. Jolie's brave, fiery, but
perfectly controlled characterization netted a second Golden Globe
statuette (this time in the Best Actress category), another Emmy
nomination, and widespread acclaim.
Most important of all, Jolie's increased exposure translated into
a decidedly more high-profile mix of challenging film roles in 1999.
She co-starred as Billy Bob Thornton's va-va-voom wife in the Mike
Newell-directed air traffic controller comedy Pushing Tin. Later
in the year, she tackled a headlining role as a tough, no-nonsense
policewoman in the serial-killer thriller The Bone Collector, holding
her own opposite formidable leading man Denzel Washington. Collector
director Phillip Noyce commented to Time magazine about Jolie's
acting mettle: "She's not burned out with the joy of performing.
She's in her element because she can set parameters for a character,
whereas I suspect she doesn't know her own boundaries emotionally
and physically." She pushed emotional, physical, and mental
boundaries to the limits in her strong turn as a seductive sociopath
in Girl, Interrupted, a starring vehicle for Winona Ryder that was
based on author Susanna Kaysen's best-selling account of her own
two-year confinement in a psychiatric hospital. Perhaps not surprisingly,
Jolie's full-tilt performance in the coveted supporting role was
rewarded with a Golden Globe, not to mention a Best Supporting Actress
Oscar.
So, with three Golden Globes on the mantel and an Academy Award
to balance them out, Angelina Jolie has landed firmly in the driver's
seat. Speaking of driver's seats, her next film, the auto-boosting
action-drama vehicle Gone in 60 Seconds, paired her with Nic Cage,
an actor who likewise has Presence to burn. Fans eagerly anticipate
Jolie's forthcoming outing as cyber-adventurer Lara Croft in the
long-anticipated filmization of the best-selling game series Tomb
Raider. Later in the year, the lithe beauty will headline the period
drama Original Sin, co-starring opposite Antonio Banderas.
On a more personal note, Jolie surprised everyone in May 2000
with her seemingly sudden marriage to Pushing Tin co-star Billy
Bob Thornton — likely the most surprised by the whirlwind nuptials
was Thornton's recently spurned ex, Laura Dern, who had assumed
even a few weeks before that the two of them were destined to walk
down the aisle.

Jolie

Angelina Jolie is the daughter of
Academy Award-winning actor Jon Voight, and former actress/model
Marcheline Bertrand. Jon |
Voight separated from Bertrand when Jolie was
1, remained in California while the family lived on the East
coast. "He was the perfect example of an artist who couldn't
be married," she says. "He had the perfect family,
but there's something for him that's very scary about that."
Jolie, is her middle name. Ultimately, she decided to use it
because, she says, "I love my father, but I'm not him".
Angelina began training and performing at the Lee Strasberg
Theatre Institute at around 12. She was seen in several stage
productions at the Institute. She worked as a professional model
in London, New York and Los Angeles, and has also appeared in
music videos for such artists as the Rolling Stones, Meat Loaf,
Lenny Kravitz, Antonello Venditti and The Lemonheads. In addition,
she has acted in five student films for the USC School of Cinema,
all directed by her brother, James Haven. She landed her first
feature film starring part in HACKERS, about a group of high
school computer hackers. Previously, she had roles in independent
features Gathering Evidence and Oh No, Not Her.
Angelina was married to her co-star from Hackers, Jonny Lee
Miller. The marriage took place in May of 1996 where she wore
black rubber clothes (although they are now divorced). She
has a extensive dagger collection (likes knives) and has several
tattoos (one is the Japanese word for death on her shoulder).
Today Angelina splits her time between New York and Los Angeles.

attitudes toward |

| her are a growing issue because the
Hollywood star machine is |
| poised to catapult this strange, exotic
creature into superstardom |
| with the Friday release of Lara Croft:
Tomb Raider.Jolie plays |
|
 |
| the buxom, brawling, video game vixen and
uber-heroine come to life.
"I feel that if there is any kind of energy for
me, it's because people know that I am extremely human,"
Jolie tells The Sun in a revealing private interview
that careens from absurd to sublime. In an earlier group
interview, she is more organized, more articulate, but
less colourful and emotional.
"They have been with me through a lot of different
things," Jolie continues in the Sun interview,
"and somehow we're all friends, yet they know I'm
a little nuts, you know."
For Jolie, Tomb Raider is her first big part in a blockbuster
movie. She barely counts her support role in Gone In
60 Seconds, which was gone that quickly at the box office.
"This is the first time that I happened to do
something that was mainstream. Some people don't allow
themselves to do something that is mainstream, even
though they would love to try and have some fun with
it, because they want to be credible and take themselves
seriously.
"So, yeah, we hope that it (Tomb Raider) does
entertain a lot of people and that people like it. That
is just as important as being really complicated and
really deep.
"Certainly, in my life, I have drowned in being
deep and complicated and dark. It's very hard sometimes
to step up in life and be proud and be confident and
be healthy and be strong and be adventurous and be light
and to laugh. It's hard for me. It's hard to be free.
"
The crazy stuff in Jolie's young life has been well
documented because she does not censor herself.
She is the 26-year-old daughter of an American original,
Jon Voight, and French actress Marcheline Bertrand.
Jolie is the fifth wife of another Hollywood eccentric,
actor-filmmaker Billy Bob Thornton, 45. He is her second
husband after Jonny Lee Miller.
They have now been married for 13 months. The "doubters,"
as Thornton called them in a Cannes interview last month
in which he described Jolie as his one-and-only soulmate,
had given them 13 days max. But the two lovebirds told
US magazine last June that the only way that the union
could end was through spontaneous combustion during
their incendiary sexcapades.
"Better than ever," Jolie says of the marriage
now. "We're talking about a poodle! What I mean
by that is that we're having fun with our life. We're
coming back here in July (she's now shooting a movie
in Vancouver, he's shooting one in Louisiana) to be
mostly with his children and we want to have a real
life and a real family. They're important. It's what
grounds you. It's a real life you have together and
memories you build and share."
Both Thornton and Jolie are covered with tattoos, including
each other's names and a symbol that has a spiritual
significance known only to them. Jolie has a dozen designs
on her body, some of which need to be covered up for
movies such as Tomb Raider in which she exposes some
flesh. Around their necks, they each wear a silver amulet
containing four drops of the other's blood.
In the past, Jolie has been candid about her bisexuality,
is known for collecting and playing with knives (including
in the sex act), once wanted to be in the funeral business
to liven up the ceremonies, and openly expresses opinions
that set gossip columnists' tongues wagging.
Such as over her passionate love for her brother, actor-filmmaker
James (Jamie) Haven (she and her brother use their middle
names as surnames to avoid trading on their father's
fame). She declared her love the night she won the best
supporting actress Oscar for playing a sexy whack-job
woman in Girl, Interrupted. Looking back, accusations
of incest -- as well as heroin use -- were stupid and
unsubstantiated, but Jolie has a way of generating a
buzz.
"I know myself as such a nut," Jolie says
of herself. "I'm just honest and I like that I
don't have to worry about what I say and I don't have
to pretend that I'm someone else. I don't have the time
or energy for it and I don't want to live that way.
But, yeah, sometimes things are taken the wrong way.
"But there is also a hell of a lot that people
don't know about me, you know. People know maybe one-tenth
of my life and because it's a certain kind of life (as
a celebrity) they assume that's everything. But I have
my secrets!"
One of those secrets is certainly not her breast size.
In one of the amusing side issues in Lara Croft: Tomb
Raider, Jolie says she padded her breasts to conform
to the expectations of hardcore gamers who idolize Lara.
"I'm a 36C, she's a 36D," Jolie says of her
character on screen. "In the game, she's a double-D,
so we took her down but we did give her some proper
padding."
Jolie finds the fascination with Lara Croft's breasts
funny. "Because, personally, I wouldn't want those
breasts!"
In the Sun interview, Jolie tries to elaborate. Sometimes,
her tongue cannot wrap itself around the ideas swirling
in her head and conversation becomes gibberish. Here
is an example, sparked when I return to the breast issue:
"I think a lot of it has to do with ... (pause)
... because of how much ... (pause) ... I think people
don't realize it is almost like ... (pause) ... it is
not as much ... (pause) ... but because she was also
a physical character ..."
Jolie seems unfazed that she left her sentences dangling
and made
no sense. She simply continues with
a warm smile on her lips and her liquid azure eyes
sparkling with hope that this time the sentence will
emerge full-blown. It does.
"There are certainly women in movies with big
breasts. There are a lot of actresses with breasts and
characters with nothing but cleavage. I know she has
big breasts in the movie. She has big breasts in the
game. We didn't want to make them as big as the game
but we didn't want to take away from her the things
that are trademarks of her.
"I'm also not flat-chested, so when I wear a tight
T-shirt, I'm a certain way. It wasn't that we had to
completely change me, we just had to enhance me a little.
Lara doesn't apologize for herself. I agree with that
and I'm not going to apologize for her, apologize for
her having a shape that's recognizable."
Thornton is just as keen. In Cannes he said of his
wife as the bombshell Lara Croft: "To see her do
that is very funny and wonderful to me and I'm all for
it!"
