In her real life, Angelina Jolie has demonstrated and spoken about her love of children. She adopted three of her six children and is an advocate for children in vulnerable regions. So it is surprising that Come Away is the first movie that really combines her real life interests in children and dealing with crisis.Jolie has made movies about real life-crises like Beyond Borders, A Mighty Heart, In the Land of Blood and Honey and Unbroken, but her only movie with children is really Maleficent, and that’s pretty far from being a mother. Come Away premiered at Sundance so here’s a preview of what you can expect when it finally comes out.Angelina Jolie plays a great mother in ‘Come Away’.In 19th century England, Rose Littleton (Jolie) is married to Jack (David Oyelowo). Their kids Peter (Jordan A. Nash), Alice (Keira Chansa) and David (Reece Yates) play together in the woods. When they play intense pirate battles with real swords, it causes genuine anxiety that someone could cut someone else in half like Walk Hard. Then they use spears and arrows.Jack is struggling financially and Rose defends Alice from a society that wants her to fit in a traditional female “role”. The kids periodically escape into fantasy worlds resembling Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland. This isn’t a “prequel” like Finding Neverland. It’s just a period piece suggesting what could have inspired the stories. Angelina Jolie protects her family.The Littleton family is going through hardships. They suffer a tragedy, and that doesn’t stop the debt collectors from coming after Jack. In the good times, Rose is playful with the kids.
She even makes faces at them when the other adults aren’t looking.olie also portrays the turmoil of the hardships befalling Rose’s children. Those can be physical or psychological, and she empowers them to be themselves, even when society wants them to be complacent. It’s also progressive to see a mixed family celebrated in a historical fantasy drama. There are many problems facing the Littletons, but racism is never one of them. Fantasies ‘Come Away’ to life.Most of the times the fantasy spills into the kids’ lives, it’s real people, not CGI or magical creatures like in A Monster Calls or Pan’s Labyrinth. When they play pirate fights, your’e watching kids swordfight real stuntmen. There are some visual effects, perhaps more so in the Alice in Wonderland homages. There is also some animation when Jack’s carved drawings on his desk come to life. The Littleton kids’ adventures aren’t limited to their fantasies either. They embark on missions to save their family, and deal with other adults who are wild characters inspired by J.M. Barrie or Lewis Carroll. The purpose of the fantasy seems to be that the kids want to help their parents, but maybe they don’t have to yet. You might not agree with that thesis, but Come Away is a lovely family drama and fantasy for exploring it. One ought to at least appreciate that it’s a different perspective than other movies about the power of fantasy. Come Away doesn’t say that fantasy is better or that it fixes anything, but it is worthwhile.

Allegedly, she even said if Depp still wants to do it, he should get a prenup.t’s Super Bowl weekend, and we are not over the Johnny Depp-Amber Heard scandal yet. What started off as a divorce, (Oh! the irony), could not have gotten any worse than that. When celebrities marry, and then divorce, no one can predict what the future will hold for them. Working in the same industry does not really bless you with all the perks you imagine. Probably, that is what might have threatened Amber Heard when she decided to file for divorce and temporary restraining order against Johnny Depp. Everyone is digging the past, trying to connect the dots after the recent turn of events. Turns out, Johnny should also have filed for a temporary restraining order against Amber, as she also abused him physically. Connecting the dots has led to old news; Angelina Jolie warned Johnny not to marry Amber.On March 14, 2014, National Enquirer shared a report that Johnny Depp’s friend and co-star of the movie, The Tourist, was not really excited about her friend’s engagement with Amber Heard. Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie made a power couple in The Tourist. Since Johnny readily tried to sacrifice his life to protect Angelina in the movie, she might have thought to return the favor in real life.The original source is no longer available. National Enquirer link leads to Radar Online, and that specific “article” is deleted now. However, other news sources shared that Angelina Jolie was having doubts when Amber Heard (27) accepted Johnny Depp’s (50) proposal. The source quotes it as: Angelina Jolie is giving romance advice to old pal Johnny Depp warning him he may be making a big mistake marrying Amber Heard.The sources’ sources’ source (Enquirer) also shared that Angelina Jolie pleaded that Johnny Depp gets a prenuptial agreement signed from Amber Heard.Since the original source is gone, we are unable to confirm the outcome of these allegations. National Enquirer was quick to remove the article. But, unfortunately, they forgot to remove other articles still available on their website. The articles do shed some light on the whole scenario.
Karma needs a break. On September 20, 2016, National Enquirer (Radar Online) released an article. This article states that Johnny Depp’s ex-partner Vanessa Paradis (1998-2012) believed he slept with Angelina Jolie. As per the article, Paradis believed Angelina stole Brad Pitt from Jennifer Anniston, and she’d do the same with Johnny Depp. On September 25, 2016, (after 5 days), the same news was released after slight modification. Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie were no longer in a relationship with their spouses in 2016. And that they were getting closer in 2016.However, in reality, Johnny Depp ended up with Amber Heard after splitting from his partner, Vanessa Paradis in 2012. (They share a daughter and a son.) The same year, Amber Heard broke up with Tasya van Ree.After their marriage, Amber Heard shared her thoughts with Elle Magazine in July 2015 edition. She shed light on life since marrying Johnny Depp. Nothing is a dramatic change. We’ve been together for a long time now, so it’s been a fairly organic process. I have a fiercely independent spirit.Ah! we agree with the fierce part. We do get it now.

Angelina Jolie Tells Jennifer Aniston That Brad Pitt Is Cheating On Her?

Did Angelina Jolie call up Jennifer Aniston to tell her that Brad Pitt is cheating on her? That’s the crazy storyline in one of this week’s tabloids. Gossip Cop can debunk every aspect of it.The latest NW cover story kicks off by claiming Pitt and Aniston are back together and also expecting a baby. “They’re keeping it on the down-low, but they’re so bloody excited – as you can imagine,” an alleged source tells the outlet. “Jen’s always wanted a child, but the timing was never right. Now it couldn’t be better.” This baby section isn’t referenced on the magazine’s cover, which just focuses on Jolie’s involvement in the phony story. If Pitt and Aniston were expecting a child, and the tabloid had the exclusive scoop, are we to believe it wouldn’t be the breaking news used for the cover?Instead, Jolie becomes the main focus of the bogus article. According to the magazine, the Maleficent star got drunk and phoned Aniston following her public reunion with Pitt at the SAG Awards. As the story goes, Jolie was sent to Aniston’s voicemail but left a taunting message saying “Brad’s already cheating on her and that he’ll never change his spots.” The magazine doesn’t bother to explain how Jolie went about getting Aniston’s phone number.From there, the anonymous insider says Aniston “didn’t believe her for a second,” adding, “You have to remember, this isn’t Jen’s first round with Ange. All Jen thinks is how sad it is that Brad’s kids have to see their mom so twisted with jealousy.” The seemingly phony source further predicts that Jolie “will be spitting even more venom” once she hears about the (nonexistent) baby.Separate spokespeople have assured Gossip Cop several times that Pitt and Aniston haven’t rekindled a romance. Trusted outlets such as People magazine have also confirmed that Pitt and Aniston are just friends. It goes without saying, but in addition to not being back together, the exes aren’t expecting a child. Jolie never drunk dialed Aniston and taunted her either. The tabloid’s cover story is pure fiction.NW keeps printing ridiculous reports on the subject. Earlier this month, Gossip Cop busted the outlet for falsely claiming Jolie was getting “revenge plastic surgery” following Pitt and Aniston’s reunion. Shortly before that, the magazine said Jolie was pursuing Justin Theroux after learning that Pitt and Aniston had gotten “engaged.” These fake scenarios are getting increasingly absurd. The tabloid’s latest story involving a pregnancy and a scathing voicemail is more nonsense.

Harry and Meghan have the chance to do the same.“In the next year or two, probably not. But in five years, why not? If done well.

He explained: “There is a review period in a ew months time, for either if they want to come back in, which I don’t think they will do.“But it’s also a time for someone in the royal family to come down hard on them if they step out of line.” Liu also referenced the Obamas as possible role models, after they chosen to work with speaking engagements and their lucrative Netflix deal since leaving the White House.
