00:00Angelina Jolie is getting candid about her personal relationships.
00:05The actress, who is currently promoting her new film, Maria, sits down with The Hollywood
00:10Reporter for a new cover story.
00:12In it, the Oscar winner reveals her inner circle is very small, admitting she doesn't
00:17have many close friends.
00:19The star says,
00:20"...I don't really have those kinds of relationships.
00:23Maybe it's losing your parent young.
00:26Maybe it's working.
00:27Maybe it's being somebody who's been betrayed a lot.
00:30I don't have a lot of those warm, close relationships as much that I lean on."
00:35Angelina's comments about being betrayed come in the same interview that she refuses
00:40to talk about another hot topic, her ex Brad Pitt.
00:44When reporter Rebecca Keegan asks,
00:46"...may I ask what the status of your divorce is?"
00:50Jolie responds,
00:51"...simply no."
00:52The two, who share six kids together, split in 2016, but have been embroiled in a messy
00:58divorce battle for years.
01:00In the interview, it's noted that Angelina draws firm boundaries on some topics, explaining
01:06that things have changed in Hollywood.
01:09That before, quote,
01:10"...you could have this messy private process and the work," spoke, adding,
01:14"...now the audience's relationship is different.
01:17I'm trying to get used to what to share."
01:20The 49-year-old is currently attending the Venice Film Festival, where she's stirring
01:25up Oscar buzz for her performance as opera singer Maria Callas in her new film, Maria.
01:31She opened up during a press conference on August 29 about turning pain into art, and
01:36the emotional art form of opera.
01:38"...I think when your life is full, when you've felt a certain level of despair, of pain,
01:46of love, at a certain point, there is only certain sounds that can match that feeling.
01:53And to me, the immensity of the feeling encapsulated within the sounds of opera, there is nothing
02:03like it.
02:04And that feeling that would move all of us if we were to hear it would be the only sound
02:10that would explain that pain."
