...blend of Jolie's previous adventuress roles: the CIA killer lady in Mr. & Mrs. Smith crossed with a mix of Lara Croft, the daredevil pilot from Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow, and the witch-goddess of Beowulf.

...sophisticated artifacts from China's earliest history. Among his acquisitions in the museum's extensive bronze collection is an enormous basin from the 6th century B.C., the largest of its kind outside China. But the true bronze masterpiece is a work older by some 600 years, the so-called Tigress you (wine vessel), which the museum bought after its patron's death. The vase, from the Shang dynasty (roughly 1550 to 1050 B.C.), was used for ancestor worship, and is shaped like an open-jawed feline, with a child either resting in its chest or being devoured.
