‘I don’t recognise my country’: Angelina Jolie on US free speech turmoil

Angelina Jolie said that she does not recognize her own country when asked about the “concerning” situation in the United States during a press conference for her film Couture at the San Sebastian Film Festival.
Oscar-winning actor Angelina Jolie, who is at Spain’s San Sebastián Film Festival with Alice Winocour’s “Couture,” was asked a timely question at the festival’s press conference: What do you fear as an artist and an American? The actor sighed deeply and took a few moments to answer before saying, “It is a very difficult question.”
“I love my country, but at this time, I don’t recognize my country,” said Jolie. “I’ve always lived internationally, my family is international, my friends, my life… My worldview is equal, united, and international. Anything anywhere that divides or limits personal expressions and freedoms from anyone, I think, is very dangerous. These are such serious times that we have to be careful not to say things casually. These are very, very heavy times we are living in together,” concluded the actor.

It’s important to note that Jolie’s comment on freedom of expression comes just days after Disney’s ABC took Jimmy Kimmel‘s popular late-night show off its schedule “indefinitely.” The decision came after one of the biggest owners of TV stations in the U.S., Nexstar Media, said it intended to preempt airings of the program following remarks the host made about the killing of conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
This is the first time Jolie attends the Spanish festival. She joins other A-list names such as Colin Farrell (“Ballad of a Small Player”) and Jennifer Lawrence, who will pick up a career achievement Donostia Award, San Sebastian’s highest honor, on Sept. 26.
“Couture” is playing in competition at the Basque festival. Set during the madness of Paris Fashion Week, the drama follows the intertwined lives of three women: Jolie’s Maxine, an American filmmaker who discovers she has breast cancer; Ada (Anyier Anei), a model escaping her predetermined future in her home of Sudan; and make-up artist Angèle (Ella Rumpf).
