[2]An Interview with Jolie 朱莉专访

 


                                                    

I interviewed Jon Voight at my house in L.A. in 1978. Now,23 years later, I'm talking to his 25-year-old daughter, Angelina Jolie, who having won an Oscar at a very young age, stands a chance of becoming a huge star in this summer's action adventure Tomb Raider. I'm curious to see if she's like her father at all...

When Angelina Jolie greets me for this interview, she strikes me as someone fully capable of doing all that she has done off screen and on screen. “Call me Angie,” she says, reaching out to shake my hand. I can tell she is indeed something like her father—intense, focused3. And I have little doubt that , like her father, she’ll be original4 in her thinking.

Q(Lawrence): You've  already  won  an  Oscar  and  you're starring in  a huge action movie that could make you ever more powerful. Do you feel you're living a fantasy?
A (Angelina): Yeah, I feel extremely blessed. But it wasn't only about getting here. I enjoyed all the steps that got me here.
Q:You've  said  that playing  Lara  Croft  in  Tomb  Raider  was  one of the hardest things you've ever done as an actor.
A:I said that because it was such a challenge physically, and because playing the character was difficult, too. It's easier to act crazy than to hold your head up high, stand up, make an articulate5 speech, and be lovely. Nobody wants to do that without laughing.
Q: Did you think your dad is an intense person?
A:He's  always been very intense. We sat in my office the other night and just talked about amazing things: great people in history, great artists, great work, great music. We can talk for hours. Or we'll call and we'll each be in character and we'll tell each other what scene we did that day and why it was funny, and we'll act it out for each other.
Q:What's  the  best  aspect  of  making  an  action  film  on  this  grand scale?
A:We were able to film in amazing countries. In Angkor, Cambodia, I met monks who performed a ceremony6 for us. We also went to Iceland.
Q: I understand you're about to leave for Africa. What will you be doing there?
A: I'm  working  with  the  United  Nations  High    Commissioner7  for Refugees8.
Q: What  is  the  UN  asking  of  you?
A:They didn't ask me to do anything. I called them and explained that I wanted to get to know their organization. I was asking them to help educate me—and to let them know that if I could help them in the future, I'm willing. I have no idea what's going to happen.
Q:An   action   star   rarely   gets   through   a film  without  an  injury. What   did you experience on the set of Tomb Raider?
A:I  got  every  different  possible  injury. I pulled ligaments9, burned myself on a chandelier10.
Q: How happily married are you?
A:Very. It hit me the other day when I was at home with Billy and his children. My dad stopped by, and then my mom came by, and I was baking with an Easy-Bake Oven. And Billy and I looked at each other and smiled.
Q: How would you describe yourself?
A: I think a lot, maybe too much. I'm very loving. I like who I am better today than I have before. I've come to a place where I'm very comfortable, settled. It's the first time in my life I've been able to be soft, and I'm finding a strength in that.
Q: Do you see yourself as a beautiful woman?
A: I  don't  not  like  the  way  I look, but I don't think I'm pretty. I'm actually a bit strange-looking.
Q: What could you possibly hate about yourself?
A: Lots of things. At different times in my life I wished I had a different hair color. I have an eye color that nobody can figure out. I used to want to have one solid hair color, one solid eye color. But all those things I love now. They're just me.
Q: Gossip11   columnists12   have   had   a   field  day   predicting13   how   long   your marriage will last. Does that upset you?
A:Are  they  still  doing that? We're two of the weirder14 people in this business, so you'd think they'd say we're perfect for each other. A lot of marriages in this town come and go. We're an exception to that rule. I believe. Time will tell.
Q: Sharon Stone said, “When fame comes upon people who are really young, they don't know that they're being eaten by it. They think they're being fed by it.” She was, however, impressed with your tattoo: “That which nourishes15 me also destroys me.” She said, “Can you imagine what you must know at that age to have done that to yourself?” What did you know?
A:I  never  thought  of  it  as  having anything to do with fame. I got it two years ago, when I was 23. I meant that hunger for life, that thing that kept me up all night, that made it impossible for me to ever sleep. I'm never comfortable and settled. As much as I love acting—and I love my work, and I love life—sometimes you feel the madness is killing you. I don't think you can be destroyed by anything you don't love.
Q:Do   you   have   many  friends  from  the different  places you've lived?
A: No, I don't have many friends.
Q: Does that make you sad?
A: No,  it's  nice  for  me.  When  people have a close circle of people around them, they don't experience life truly. When I go off alone I don't hurt anyone's feelings. And if I suddenly have new friends in my life, it doesn't upset the old friends.
