The fifth of August, the eldest son Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Maddox will be 14 years old. But the star couple believes that such a young age is not a reason for idleness, and want to go to work after school. However, it is unlikely that Maddox will oppose this, since its workplace will be a film crew, and his mother's direct boss.
Jolie is going to screen the memoirs of Cambodian writer and public figure Lowung Ung. Her book called "At first they killed my father: the memories of the daughter of Cambodia" came out in 2000 and talks about how she managed to survive during the deadly regime of "Red Khmerov" in the late 1970s.
"We got acquainted with Angelina in 2001. And I immediately believed in her with all my heart, "says the writer. - Over the years of our communication, we have become close friends. And I admire Angelina as a woman, mother, cinematographer and humanist. "
According to rumors, Maddox, who Angelina adopted in Cambodia in 2002, will play some role in the future picture. Jolie has not yet confirmed this information, but says that the teenager will actively participate in the shooting process. "Maddox will be located on the site every day after school. Now, during the preparatory process, we will get together his native country together. He will be 14 next week, and he is already important to know who he is and from. He is my son, but he is also the son of Cambodia. It is time for the whole of our family to understand everything that it means for him and for us, "says movie star.
"I was deeply touched by Memoirs Lowung. The book has further strengthened my understanding of how children are experiencing war and how it emotionally affects them. It helped me to become even closer to the people of Cambodia, the native country of my son Maddox. Events in the picture I want to show the eyes of a child - continues Jolie. - To screen this book is a dream that has become a reality. And he is a great honor to work with Loung Ung. "
However, with such great employment, Maddox may not be at all time for a personal life and meeting with his girlfriend. Is it really just that Jolie is achieving? "What do you? She is wonderful, - answered the movie star to the Journalists of Entertainment Tonight asked by her. - She lives in England. But, despite our permanent travel, they manage to stay in touch with each other. And we come there as often as possible. She is a very good girl. I was lucky. But I will not say anything else so as not to embarrass Maddox. "
The preparatory period before the shooting will last until November, the shooting themselves will be held in Cambodia with the participation of local actors and the film crew from November to January.
