Technically a non-competitive award is not a win

she has two, but even one is difficult to get, not everybody has that 

 

Had no idea got an honorary one as well. That’s very impressive.

Angelina Jolie would be the last person I'd think of to portray Maria Callas. Their jaw/chin area is similar but Maria wasn't particularly known for her beauty to put it nicely. Also, how the hell is she gonna pull off the singing aspect? I smell an Oscar for Outstanding AI Performance coming

Literally insanely excited for this.  

 

Jackie and Spencer are two of my fave films in the last ten years. Pablo Larrain can have this -

Yeh how dare she having that face her entire life

Dont be an actor if u only have landy of the manor face to give.

 

Actual actors can transform, like Meryl Streep.

 

Jolie was a beautiful sexy nepobabe who could never act more than the cheap sexy act. Turns out no one cares anymore.

 

She should focus being a mother like she said she would.

 

I prefer Megan Fox paralyzed face anyday. At least she doesnt pretend to know how to act.

Another Oscar in the basket

Oh, interesting...someone called out the overrated, stilted acting for the first time on this forum.

I never expected to read anything negative about Jolie in here considering this site rides so hard for her she's praised as this never seen before talent yet her filmography is not only forgettable at best , but it has some really awful trashy B movies that should have never gotten the green light in the first place.  She's never left any impression on me with her acting chops even in her "good" roles but hey, she's pretty i guess and that's the main appeal. 

She looks as out of place and miscast in this role as expected. It's gonna be hilarious for all the wrong reasons.

Another BOMB in the making

It's Pablo Larrain - he completely subverts biopic tropes in favor of mood pieces. Jackie was almost like a psychological horror film at times.

[Elusive Chanteuse]

goddess omg

 

[spiritboy]

She looks more beautiful than Callas in those photos but i'm not gonna judge until i see the movie.

Well yeah, Spencer flopped for filth tho.

 

It is Angelina we are talking about, she even tanked a Marvel movie (while it was still hot). Never doubt her BOMBING power.

No one expected an arthouse film like Spencer to be a box office smash - be serious

[popmusicisdead]

people here really worried about box office numbers here. it's an arthouse film for godsakes  

and for the last time, she won't be singing in this movie. it'll be about her last days long after she retired.

I didn't expect to be crying full stop on the fckn toilet but here we are  such a clever speech. To put herself in the unknowing, to let the listener form their own answer, while still managing to spell it out... bravo 

[Blade Runner]

Larrain doesn't give a sh+t about physical resemblance because his movies aren't about that. I mean, he casted KStew as Lady Di, like... fbsff

Being greek myself, the general consensus over here is that she achieved so much and had the relationships she did bc of her class and talent, not her beauty. Whenever she's brought up you'll always hear a snarky comment about her appearance for whatever reason.

Damn, that's insane. She was so beautiful.

Larrain + Jolie is exciting
