Angelina Jolie comforted a distressed fan on Thursday as she arrived to film The Daily Show With Jon Stewart in New York. The Maleficent star consoled a woman named Techne as she sat crying on the pavement after reportedly suffering a panic attack while waiting.The actress was signing autographs and posing for photographs with scores of admirers outside the studio before noticing that Techne was struggling amid the crowd.An emotional Techne was allowed to bypass the barrier holding back the fans before sitting down on the floor. Mum-of-six Angelina then wiped the tears from her face and took a selfie, helping Techne to crack a smile.Angelina's appearance in the Big Apple came several days after the 39-year-old was involved in a car accident.The incident took place in LA on Sunday after a screening of California-born Angelina's film Unbroken. The Hollywood star was travelling in a hire car that skidded in the rain and hit a curb, with the impact exploding two of the vehicle's tires."The car slammed into the curb at significant speed," an eyewitness told X17 Online. "Angelina must have wondered if they hit another car."It was pretty bad – the tire exploded and it's amazing nothing worse happened to the car. I wouldn't be surprised if she had whiplash." Luckily Angelina was unharmed and was soon picked up in another car.

Jon Stewart Imagines Life If He'd Ended Up with Angelina Jolie

It's been a long time since Jon Stewart worked with Angelina Jolie on a 1998 film called Playing by Heart, but the Oscar winner left a lasting impression on him."Ever since I met you about 20 years ago on set, I thought, 'This person has talent coming out of everywhere,' " Stewart told the actress and director, who stopped by The Daily Show on Thursday. "You meet certain people and you go, 'This person embodies something different, special.' I've always thought that about you."In fact, he even came up with a Brangelina-like name for himself and Jolie, 39."If you'd ended up with me instead of Brad Pitt, our portmanteau – Stewart and Jolie – would have been 'Stolie,' " he told the newlywed. "We could have been a vodka brand!" Stewart, 52, was also full of praise for Jolie's new film, Unbroken (out Dec. 25), which marks her second outing as a director. He described the big-budget film about Louis Zamperini, an Olympic runner and World War II prisoner of war who survived 47 days lost at sea, as "epic" and asked his former rom-com costar if she felt daunted by undertaking a film of such scope.
"It took me off-guard," Jolie admitted. "I remember waking up in the middle of the night thinking, 'I don't know how to film a shark attack.' ""You convince the studio, you say, 'You should give me this job, I know exactly what I'm doing. I'm so sure of it.' And then you get the job and you go, 'Oh my, I'm not sure that I do.' So every day was a challenge," she added.Jolie, who directed In the Land of Blood and Honey in 2011, a film she also wrote, told Stewart that she enjoyed the "huge responsibility" of helming a film."I love directing," Jolie said. "You're there from the beginning until the end, shepherding every tiny detail."When Stewart asked if her interest in directing came from acting in films where she felt that maybe the director could have gone a different way with a scene, Jolie admitted that there were a few of her movies that she hadn't seen "because I couldn't sit through them."That prompted an adoring Stewart to lean forward, and as they batted eyes at each other he said, "Do you want to talk to me about them, because I've seen them all."But when Jolie returned the compliment and told the host that she and her husband watched The Daily Show at home, Stewart's interest in her quickly evaporated.What does the former PEOPLE Sexiest Man Alive wear when he watches the show, Stewart wanted to know. Just pajama pants and no top? "Sometimes," Jolie said with a smile."That feels right," Stewart responded.

Angelina Jolie Recalls Emotional Experience of Showing 'Unbroken' to Louis Zamperini on His Death Bed

Angelina Jolie wears a white coat and waves to the cameras while arriving at the Directors Guild Theatre for a screening of Unbroken on Wednesday evening (December 3) in New York City.The 39-year-old actress/director spoke with press to recall the emotional moment she showed the movie to its subject Louis Zamperini on his death bed earlier this year.“Louie was a part of the journey from the beginning. We’d call him sometimes and say ‘Does the raft look right,’ or, ‘Did you or did you not have a screwdriver?’ So he was always aware of it. But I hadn’t shown him the film. I was saving it,” Angelina said (via Vanity Fair). “But I found out that he’d gone into the hospital, so I had it downloaded on my laptop and I drove to the hospital and held it over him, like this, so he could see it.” “And it’s hard to explain. How do you explain that moment? It wasn’t a judgment on a film and how well-acted or well-crafted it was. It was a man watching his life. It was a man at the end of his life, his extraordinary life—this mountain of a man, with his physical strength, at 97 years old . . . I had to help him a glass of water, his legs were very, very thin—watching himself run and win in the Olympics, watching his brother, watching his mother make gnocchi, watching all that he accomplished, all that he survived. And because he was a man of such strong faith, I think he was preparing himself, I know he was, preparing himself to die. And so he was also preparing himself to see his mother, and Phil, and Mac, and everybody. So it was hard to explain what it was. It was watching somebody relive all their experiences and prepare for that great, powerful, extraordinary, inspiring, long life to end.”
