Angelina Jolie enjoys day with kids



Angelina Jolie was spotted running errands with daughters Zahara and Shiloh and son, Pax, just 12 hours after she escorted her partner Brad Pitt to a gala fundraiser for his 'Make It Right Foundation'.
Zahara donned a pretty pink dress for the outing, while Pax was spotted striking one of his favorite Karate Kid pose, Radar Online reported.
On Saturday night, Pitt and Jolie were front and center for the 'Night To Make It Right' fundraiser for his Make It Right Foundation.
Pitt's A-List pals including Ellen DeGeneres, Kanye West, Sheryl Crow and Rihanna performed.
Guests who paid between 1,000 dollars and 2,500 dollars to attend were treated to a dinner prepared by New Orleans culinary heroes John Besh, Emeril Lagasse and Donald Link.
The money thus collected is going to help the 'Make It Right Foundation' complete its promised 150 new homes in New Orleans' hard-hit Lower 9th Ward where 4,000 houses were destroyed when the levees broke during Hurricane Katrina.

Angelina Jolie's directorial debut about a love story between a Serbian policeman and his rape victim has met with sharp criticism among Bosnian Serbs who said the work was biased and anti-Serb.
The movie "In the Land of Blood and Honey" set during the 1992-95 Balkan war has received critical acclaim in the US.
The film is slated to be premiered in Serbia and the Serb-populated part of Bosnia in May, and Jolie has said she would like to attend the screening.
Authorities have turned down a request by some war veterans' organisations to ban the film.
Jolie -- who is a goodwill ambassador for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees -- has also been exposed to a barrage of criticism from the press and calls for a boycott to "show her she isn't welcome" in the country.
Serbian websites have been flooded with pictures allegedly showing Jolie in pornographic acts before she became a celebrity. The pictures are reportedly accompanied with comments like "once a prostitute - always a prostitute".
Internationally acclaimed Serbian film director Emir Kusturica has declined to comment on Jolie's film, calling her a "propagandist" not a filmmaker.

I had a complete emotional breakdown: Angelina Jolie

Actress Angelina Jolie, who is gearing up for the release of her directorial debut In the Land of Blood and Honey says she underwent an emotional breakdown during filming the movie.

I had a complete emotional breakdown in the shower and Brad Pitt found me crying,
 she said, I felt this huge responsibility and I felt very small. I thought, 'Who am I to take this on?'...I had a complete meltdown, contactmusic.com quoted her as saying. 

I didn't plan to become a director, and I still have trouble saying I'm a director, I just wanted to tell this story and I ended up, by default, being the director. It was a pleasure but I wonder if it would be a pleasure with another cast and crew, and a subject matter that wasn't so special, she added. 

The movie revolves around a Bosnian Muslim woman during the Bosnian War of the 1990s who falls in love with a Serbian policeman. As the Bosnian women are forced into camps, the policeman brings her to the prison that's under his command, even though his true loyalties are tested
