         Angelina Jolie's maternal instincts are interfering with her directing.The 40-year-old actress/director is currently shooting "First They Killed My Father," based on activist Loung Ung's memoir memoir of the same name, in Cambodia. One of the movie's scenes, Jolie told People, requires "250 children" who "have to cry and scream" as they "go through a labor camp." "My instinct is to want to cut and hug everyone," Jolie said.Jolie and husband Brad Pitt's 14-year-old son Maddox, adopted from Cambodia in 2001, is serving as PA on the fim. Jolie, speaking with the Associated Press in July, said "as Maddox and I prepare the film we will be side by side learning about his country ... He is my son but he is also a son of Cambodia. This is the time for our family to understand all that that means to him and to us. My desire to tell this story in the most truthful and accurate way possible will be my tribute to the strength and dignity of all Cambodian people." She added, "Maddox will be on set every day after school and involved behind the scenes." "First They Killed My Father" tells the story of Ung's brutal childhood under Cambodia's Khmer Rouge regime, responsible for the murder of millions of civilians. Jolie said the goal of the film "is not to revisit the horrors of the war but to bring to the screen characters that people around the world will empathize with, and to help other people to learn about Cambodia." She explained, "What is special about this particular story is that it is told from the perspective of a 5-year-old child, and is based on a child's emotional experience of war. It sheds light not only on the experience of children during the genocide in Cambodia but of all children who endure war." Jolie and Pitt star in the new marital drama "By the Sea," written and directed by Jolie. The film bombed at the box office and has been slammed by critics.

        Jolie wanted a new nip/tuck, but her surgeon said it was unsafe.Angelina Jolie isn’t used to hearing the word “No.” But RadarOnline.com has learned she was shut down at the plastic surgeon’s office when she requested a new procedure and was told she’s too thin! According to a source, “Angelina didn’t want to have breast implants after her mastectomy, because it would require additional surgeries down the road, and possible complications. The alternative to the breast implants would have been taking fat from her abdomen to construct the breasts. Using her own tissue would have been more natural, but that surgery would have been a lot longer.” “That’s what she wanted to do,” added a source.But doctors told Angie she wasn’t a candidate for the fat transfer to the breasts because “she is just too thin,” the insider claimed. “In the end, it all worked out and Angie was happy with the results.” “Down the line though, Angie will need to have the implants replaced.” While busy promoting By The Sea with her husband, Brad Pitt, 51, Jolie’s scary skinny frame has been making headlines yet again.Her bones were sticking out at the recent WSJ Innovator Awards in New York City. Jolie, 40, went public with her decision to have a double mastectomy and hysterectomy last year, after testing positive for faulty BRCA-1 genetic mutation, which put her at increased odds of getting breast and/or ovarian cancer.Ovarian cancer took the life of Angelina’s mother, Marcheline Bertrand, as well as her grandmother and aunt.

'By the Sea' was inspired by her mother, says Angelina Jolie Pitt

          Jolie Pitt directs and stars with Brad Pitt in the film 'Sea,' which follows a couple struggling with their marriage who travel to a seaside hotel. 'It was important to try to do it for my mother,' the actress and director said."By the Sea" is a very personal film for Angelina Jolie Pitt — and not just because it reunites her onscreen with her husband, Brad Pitt. It's not even because she wrote, directed, produced, and stars in the film."By the Sea" is personal because it was inspired by the grief of losing her mother in 2007, Jolie Pitt said at the film's premiere, AFI Fest's opening-night gala at Hollywood's TCL Chinese Theatre.She started writing when she was missing her mother, without knowing exactly what she was creating. "When you write something from a blank page, it's very hard to say, 'This is important,' because you don't know: It's your own life. It's your own depression. It's your own questions about your mother. Grief. Where to put your pain," Jolie Pitt said. "For me, it was important to try to do it. And it was important to try to do it for my mother. It was important for myself. And it was wonderful to work with Brad, and for us to be able to get through it together, because we tested ourselves to see if we could do something like this together." "By the Sea" is a slow, quiet drama about a wealthy American couple on a French seaside retreat. Roland (Pitt) is there to write, but mostly just ends up drinking. Vanessa (Jolie Pitt) is there to relax, but ends up grumping around and popping pills. They avoid each other and their relationship is clearly strained. Their dynamic begins to change when they befriend (and secretly spy on) a newlywed couple on their honeymoon.
         As in 2005's "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," the two stars play a married pair facing serious relationship challenges. Only this time, the actors relied on the strength of their real-life relationship to do it."It's really no different than trying to get the kids to bed at night," Pitt said." I mean, you know, it's a tag team, Ultimate Wrestling kind of endeavor. And here on set, again, we're working together and solving problems and making the thing work and figuring it out. And there's just a great collaboration. She's just, she's my wife." As for being directed by his spouse? "She's very decisive. She's really intuitive," Pitt said. "Her instincts are really good with stories. So, I really trust her when she redirects a scene." Jolie Pitt loved working with her husband, too."You're going to have a long life ahead of you and you've got to shake it up and, sometimes, it's really wonderful to test yourselves, to push each other," she said. I talked to (actress) Gena Rowlands. She was talking before, and how she and (director-husband) John (Cassavetes) (would) take the rubber band and you stretch it as far as you can. And this is a part of marriage and this is wonderful. So, that I loved. And that was what we did."

"By the Sea" opens in theaters Nov. 13
