Clint Eastwood’s High Praise for Angelina Jolie in Changeling
Clint Eastwood, known for Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby, took a different direction with Changeling (2008). The film, written by J. Michael Straczynski, follows a mother (Angelina Jolie) who realizes the boy returned to her isn’t her missing son.
During filming, Eastwood was impressed by Jolie’s dedication. In an interview with Pop Entertainment, he called her “the most prepared actress—or certainly as prepared—as any actress I’ve ever worked with.”
Their collaboration showcased Jolie’s emotional depth and Eastwood’s ability to tell powerful, character-driven stories, making Changeling a standout film in both of their careers.
