Filmmaker Clint Eastwood has revealed that he is looking forward to Angelina Jolie’s directional debut.

The actress is set to begin work on her film, about the war in Yugoslavia at the beginning of the 1990s, later this year – and the “Changeling” director is convinced that the actress will make a successful transition from acting to direction.

“She’s a very intelligent gal. I know she’ll do great… She has great a work ethic and she’s very smart. I’m looking forward to seeing what she does,” imdb.com quoted him as saying.

Eastwood also offered some words of advice to Jolie, “My advice for her is to get more sleep than the actors. And to have good management – know what you want and know
what you are looking for and go after it.”

It can get lonely in Hollywood for some. Reportedly, actress Angelina Jolie has very few close friends since becoming a star, but that Brad Pitt is definitely her only BFF. That’s good news for Brad Pitt, but could be disastrous for Angelina Jolie should a messy breakup ever occur.

So what’s the story with one of the hottest actresses in all of Hollywood? Does nobody like her, or does she trust nobody else? According to USMagazine.com, Jolie recently said in a CNN interview with Sanjay Gupta about her sparse friendships in life:

“I’ll talk to my family. I talk to Brad; he wants to know as much as he can about these issues and every trip. He’s been here as well; he came with me after the earthquake. But I don’t know, I don’t have a lot of friends I talk to. He is really the only person I talk to.”

Although recent news reports have talked of Brangelina buying a third home, they also allocate plenty of their earnings to charitable efforts. It can get lonely for Angelina as she spends time away from her family for various humanitarian causes in addition to acting. Recently, the 35-year-old star of “Salt” was in Pakistan serving as UN’s Goodwill Ambassador. Jolie has been meeting with victims of a recent flood and says she explains to her children the reasons she leaves them behind.

It is true though in the cutthroat world of Hollywood, you don’t really know just who to trust. There’s backstabbing agents, lawyers and others looking to capitalize off your fame and fortune. Angelina seems to have found the right BFF though with Brad Pitt, as they appear to be a happy couple together. It’s likely that Angelina has many friends, but only a select few whom she counts as the right people to share secrets and other conversations with.
