It's sweet that Angelina Jolie will accompany her beau Brad (Best Actor nominee for Benjamin Button) to the ceremony, but a shame that she was made a Best Actress finalist for her work as the desperate mother in Changeling, a performance so miscalibrated that it yanks the story out of its period whenever...

Jolie’s impassioned performance at times veers into the melodramatic, but it’s the lifeblood...
Even though artwork by the British graffiti artist Banksy is popular with celebrities such as Angelina Jolie and Christina Aguilera, some regard the artist's street works to be vandalism, pure and simple. On Oct. 23, the Council of Westminster in London ordered the removal of a 23 ft (7 m) Banksy mural - reportedly his largest work in central London - claiming that it encourages graffiti...
