Amazing Performance of Angelina Jolie

Rating: 8/10 (19 April 2014)

Angelina Jolie may have been a highly respected and established actress long before Changeling (2008) was released. Personally though I had never really thought of Jolie as an actress of merit, more an actress of beauty and presence. There are many actress, and indeed actors, that seem to have a career because they are good to look at. In the Changeling (2008) though not matter how beautiful Jolie maybe, I could hardly look at her. The emotion, pain and desperation in her performance was so real it hurt to observe her character's life.
With her stunning portrayal of Christine Collins, a woman who is reunited with her missing son only to realise he is an impostor. Angelina Jolie proved that she is not just an actress, she is one of the very best around.
