Angelina Jolie: I Didn't Intend to Direct a Movie

Angelina Jolie keeps warm in a chic Carmen Marc Valvo coat while heading to the Bloomberg Tower on Tuesday (December 6) in New York City.

The 36-year-old actress, who is in town to promote her directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, finished off her look with a Michael Kors dress and Ferragamo purse.

“It didn’t start out with me wanting to direct a movie. It started with me interested in these subject matters. So the script was a private exercise for me that I never intended to show anybody, and then I ended up showing Brad and he said, ‘You know, honey, it’s not bad,’” Angie told Extra.

“[We had] this idea we’ll send it to people from all different sides of the conflict without my name on it, and if they agree to come together to do it, then we’ll make it,” Angelina – who started writing the script during one of Shiloh‘s art classes – added. “And if they don’t, we’ll burn it.”
