I was in the 2014 Unbroken movie, and I will never forget how much time she spent making sure all the extras, such as myself, were taken cared of. She took the time to say hello and speak to us, making sure we were all happy. She set the standard for being an incredible director and for being a genuine, kind person.

[bellapayne]

I am a voice teacher and this is the perspective I take. I am so glad to hear Angelina Jolie sharing this! I hope it inspires many to take voice lessons. It is a life changing experience. Nothing and no one will teach you more about yourself than your own voice.

[Shoshana_Grace]

The way she explains why her true voice may be different than the one we hear, is so powerful. I bet many of us hide our softer selves as a means of protection.

[blacklilac]

I love watching Angelina Jolie's interviews. She's so eloquent and graceful as she speaks but it's also clear she's such a deep thinker.

[M_]

Its so refreshing watching a real interview with real questions.

[lisicaful]

I like the way the interview was led. It's really a conversation between two people, and there is space it's perfect.

[LyohMarss]

Let’s appreciate the interviewer 🫶🏻 he made it feel like such a calmed and fluid conversation.

[rmk]

She seems very comfortable in her own skin in this interview - that's really awesome.

[sandraevans]

She's amazing. Yes she's beautiful, a given, but her soul is simply stunning. I love her compassion, intelligence, eloquence, insight, confidence, diligence. I am not one to really follow celebrities, and I feel like I haven't seen enough of her films to call myself a fan to a certain extent - but I have always found her interesting and inspirational.

i got to meet Pablo tonight at a screening of Maria . He was so kind and spoke wonderfully about everyone coming together to make such a ethereal film❤

[StorySuz]

He is a fantastic interviewer … opening her up and making space for her to respond.

[Seschal]

Maria Callas' voice teacher, di Hidalgo, taught my voice teacher, and I also learned so much about myself like it was therapy.

[sebastianxavier]

A lot of respect to Angelina for her poise, grace, and eloquence in describing her experience of the process, and for her vulnerability in talking about exploring her true voice.
Also so much appreciation for Pablo in creating such a dynamic conversational interview that made and held space for Angelina to actually open up. His offers in return to her sharing, and also his thoughtful and impactful questions to guide the conversation so masterfully.

[BB-zgmr]

Angelina is so peaceful and serene.That was one of the best interviews I have ever watched. I can't wait to see the movie.

[SoniaTolson]

I truly enjoyed this interview. This was a mature conversation between two adults. No creepy intrusive questions with “gotcha” goals. Thanks to you both.❤

[emovampire]

she’s just so likeable. she always stays so present with her interviewers, and just seems so kind.

[angelajasminecanlas]

Up to this day why still lots of people can’t stand her or throwing hate on her?! She’s actually very empowering woman, humanitarian, brilliant actress, etc..! No one’s perfect but her beauty&personality is unique 💕luv Angelina !

[Angie-olqb]

All her interviews are always so interesting she’s such a intelligent woman

[Wishpool]

It's really nice to see this softer side of "Angie". What a great interview!
