Angelina Jolie gets candid with Vanity Fair for their October issue and admits to them that there is no secret wedding to partner Brad Pitt, she’s not pregnant and has no plans for adoption. In addition to that she says of  ’In The Land of Blood and Honey’ a film that not only marks her directorial she also wrote:

“I’ve never felt more exposed. My whole career, I’ve hidden behind other people’s words,” Now it’s me talking. You feel ridiculous when you get something wrong.”

What prompted her to write the script:

“I had the flu,” Jolie says of how she came to write the script. “I had to be quarantined from the children for two days. I was in the attic of a house in France. I was isolated, pacing. I don’t watch TV and I wasn’t reading anything. So I started writing. I went from the beginning to the end. I didn’t know any other way.” She says she then let Brad take the script to read on a trip: “He called and said, ‘You know, honey, it’s not that bad.’”

Is there anything this woman can’t do? She fell into the directorial part by default:

It was something I didn’t trust out of my hands,” she explains. “So by default I ended up putting myself in as director.” Of her decision to use all unknown actors from the region, she says, “It couldn’t be anybody else. It’s their story. It was important that they were willing to do it. If none of them were willing, I wouldn’t have made it.”
