Angelina Jolie

She's been called everything from humanitarian to home wrecker. When there's a "most beautiful women" list in circulation she's usually on it. And in 2005, on the set of Mr and Mrs. Smith, it would appear she finally met her "most beautiful man." Brad Pitt has since become adoptive father of her child and they now have a child of their own, Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt.

Jolie has two previous marriages to former co-stars Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller. During her marriage to Thornton, the spouses each wore a vial of the other's blood around their necks.

As the daughter of actor Jon Voight, she learned the acting ropes while growing up in Hollywood but the father/daughter relationship has been rocky ever since. Her early work in "Girl Interrupted" propelled her to win the Golden Globe, the SAG Award, and the Academy Award for best leading actress in a supporting role. She then became known world-wide for her leading role as Lara Croft in Tomb Raider in which she briefly shared the screen with her estranged father.

One of the Croft movie's filming locations was Cambodia where, Jolie became a first-hand witness to the poverty there and later adopted a young Cambodian refugee. Jolie has since stated that she plans to spend most of her time in humanitarian efforts to be financed by her actress salary and that she devotes one third of her income to savings, one third to living expenses, and one third to charity.

Determined to outsmart the paparazzi Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie recently sold a baby photo of their new daughter to the press and donated the huge sum to charity.

Read on for Angelina's latest move.

Original Sin (Unrated Version)
By:
List Price: $14.98
Amazon Price: $4.99

Amazon.com
Original Sin belongs in the "so bad it's good" category of languid potboilers, offering enough nudity, sexual chemistry, and far-fetched plotting to make it an enjoyable lazy-day diversion. Based on Cornell Woolrich's novel Waltz into Darkness (previous filmed by François Truffaut as Mississippi Mermaid) and set in turn-of-the-century Cuba, the film traces a tailspin of amorous obsession when coffee plantation owner Luis (Antonio Banderas) discovers that his American mail-order bride (Angelina Jolie) is not the plain wife he'd expected, but a beautiful, scheming thief who's after his fortune. The movie asserts that love is truly blind, but absurd twists of plot make Luis appear more stupid than passionate. Writer-director Michael Cristofer fared better with Jolie in Gia; here, he's made another good-looking film about beautiful people, but its plot just can't be taken seriously. --Jeff Shannon
