勇敢在恶意premiere last night. Sorry it took me so long to write about this. I’ve been waiting all day to buy those family photos – Brange posing with Maddox, Pax, Miss Zahara, Shiloh the Chosen, and Knox. But the agency is taking forever to figure it out. So we’ll come back to that in a separate post when they do. For now… yes… Vivienne, the Brange-child who was actually in the movie wasn’t there. No idea why. You’ll note though – photographers are saying that Maddox, who worked some of the carpet on his own, had a little friend with him. I want to know how Brange will be as parents to a hormonal teenager. I really, really want to know.

时尚：我讨厌这件衣服。我讨厌臀部上的sh-t。我讨厌皮革看起来乳胶。相反，我希望那是一件皮革连身裤，就像她在电影中穿的相同的衣服……背上有翅膀。相信我，在那一刻，当她都是为了为亲人而战的所有恶棍战士时，这是您不会忘记的形象。

我的制片人劳拉（Laura）昨晚看到了它。她之后对我说社交我是对的（因为当我从Junket回来时她没有说服） - 她爱恶意。I LOVED恶意。老实说，我没想到会。我很担心。And then five minutes later, my friend Teri Hart and I looked at each other in relief and then joy – first of all, it’s great to look at, SHE is great to look at, and she’s actually funny at times (how long has it been since the Jolie’s been FUNNY?), and then, on top of all it, sh-t, we realised we were watching a fairy tale movie where the female lead is allowed to make mistakes, to be wronged and then to be wrong herself, and to have to be accountable for her poor decisions, and not just someone who stands around letting good and bad things happen to her.

也……做坏事的疯了。我们经常看到的女性in these movies get frustrated, sometimes even annoyed. But mad? Real anger isn’t an emotion they have the luxury of feeling. Not often. This isn’t relatable. And this is what I loved most about Maleficent. That she could be angry. Vengefully angry. After that, regretful. With no one else to blame. Then, instead of romance, she’s allowed to be redeemed by friendship. The most significant man in her life doesn’t want to rescue her, or save her, but wishes only to help her and follow her lead…with no ulterior romantic motive. These were my takeaways. I can’t sh-t on those takeaways.

至于采访安吉丽娜·朱莉（Angelina Jolie）的经历…

据广泛报道，她没有公关人员。有些人不相信这一点。这是真的。下一个房间里没有公关人员。对于她身材高大的明星，他们总是由公关人员陪同。乔利唯一的人是她的私人助理。这就是她处理宣传的方式。工作室将批准请求发送给助手，朱莉亲自审查了由各个媒体分配的媒体列表。高度不寻常。几乎永远不会发生。 What normally happens is that the publicist, like Stephen Huvane, will oversee the press schedule and the reporter log, without even showing the client, and the actor will just show up that day, trusting that everyone he/she will be talking to have been vetted by his/her rep. Angelina Jolie has removed the middle person from that process so that she has ultimate control. And that’s why working with her takes a lot longer – because she’s already busy and still insists on every single fine point so the studio has to wait, sometimes until the last minute – but, for her, it almost means that she knows all the tiny, seemingly insignificant details of how her day is going to run, who she’ll be sitting down with, and exactly who she’ll be spending her time with.

负责自己的日程安排也意味着她正在按计划进行。我对垃圾的最恐惧缺少我的飞行，因为他们经常被预订的时间很紧。而且我们都有垃圾恐怖故事。有时，约翰尼·德普（Johnny Depp）只是决定迟到一个半小时，你知道吗？然后，记者不能留下来采访他的电影电影，因为她不能再乘飞机回家，必须在他到达那里之前就离开。因此，我问前一天 - 您认为我应该研究飞行选择吗？我是否应该担心她可能迟到了？

“她从不迟到。实际上，有时候她还早。有时她会到达那里，然后说，我准备去，我们要去。”他们保证我会飞行。他们不可想象的是，她不会守时。不可想象。像她的声誉一样。总是准时。一位超级巨星总是准时？那是不可想象的。 And then she showed up on time. So she should. That’s not what’s fascinating. The insight here is how she operates – like Beyonce, a machine, clinical, operational, methodical. Except better. Because when you’re in front of her, she’s so mesmerising the machine falls away. It’s warmth. There are times when you walk in the door and they don’t give a sh-t, they make you feel like you’re just a number. With the Jolie, her hand is out right away, she’s looking to make eye contact, she smiles broadly when you tell her you liked her movie, and then, once you’ve been rewarded with making her happy, that’s all you want to f-cking do for the next ten minutes!

At one point I couldn’t believe she was talking to me about red lipstick. I told her that she was funny in the movie and that she’s rarely funny in movies and she wasn’t insulted. Instead, she got kinda flirty, like her being funny was a gift you might never get so that you better appreciate it when she gives it to you. And when I started coming at the personal questions from the side door, oh she knew exactly what I was doing (the wedding, the planning) but she let me go there anyway, giving me an answer that she knew I could take back to etalk for a good sound-bite and still maintaining a distance… while letting me know that she was fully aware of my game.

表演？行为？

当然。毕竟这是她的工作。

Is to sell.

But as I’ve always said, she seems to be doing it better than anyone else.

明天对朱莉的更多想法。
