Ambitious Angelina!

First-time director Angelina Jolie opened up to Hungarian-language site Vasarnapi Hirek about shooting her untitled Bosnian war epic, which follows a romance between a Muslim woman and Serbian man. (IndieWire first turned up the interview.)

Jolie, 35, says she shot the movie twice: once in English, once in the native language of the mostly-Eastern European actors. “We actually shot a full version in their native language and we shot a full version in English,” Jolie explained.

“We shot two complete films. I was only able to do it because the actors were so fluent in English so they were willing to work hard and do the scenes in two languages,” the mother of six and love to Brad Pitt said.

And the Hollywood A-lister might even make her directorial debut a black-and-white affair. “It’s shot in color but it could transfer to black and white. We haven’t decided that,” she explained. “We put a series of pictures together in black and white and it was beautiful.”

Still, despite those high-brow elements, Jolie insisted: “The important thing is I want to make sure that we make a film for people who just want to go to the movies to watch a love story. To not be put off by anything that seems too heavy.”

Continued the star: “We want to walk that fine line to make it accessible to everybody because it’s important for as many people to see it.”

In the upcoming The Tourist, Angelina Jolie plays an Interpol Agent who lures an American tourist (Johnny Depp) into danger in order to trap a criminal. The part was originally set to be played by Charlize Theron, but eventually went to Jolie. In an interview with Vogue, Jolie described her attraction to the project.

I was looking for a very short thing to do before Brad [Pitt] started filming [Moneyball], and I said I needed something that shoots not too long, in a nice location for my family. Somebody said there’s a script that’s been around, and it shoots in Venice and Paris. And I said, “Is it a character I haven’t played before?” And they said, “Yes, it’s a lady.”

With Jolie aboard and Theron out, a replacement was required for the departures of Bharat Nalluri and The Lives of Others, she felt that the German director was right for the job.

I couldn’t believe it that he was open to doing it, and then we found out that Johnny was open to doing it. So what was always this tiny idea to do a little film in Europe suddenly became this . . . bigger movie.

Von Donnersmarck agreed, mostly on the intrigue of working with Jolie. “Literally, she gets every single script that has a female role aged between eighteen and 40,” von Donnersmarck told the magazine. “Every script. And she just follows her feeling, holds her own counsel. She’s probably the only global megastar that doesn’t even have an agent—she doesn’t even have a publicist.”
