Summary

- The film explores a filmmaker's breast cancer diagnosis.
- Jolie's role was inspired by her mother's illness.
Angelina Jolie made a striking appearance at the 'Couture' premiere in Paris, gracing the red carpet in an elegant, sequin-embellished gown. The actress, portraying filmmaker Maxine Walker, stars in a drama set for release on February 18. The narrative follows Maxine as she navigates a recent breast cancer diagnosis while pursuing her career and personal life.
Jolie revealed that the role was particularly meaningful due to its exploration of how illness impacts identity, reminding her of her late mother's experiences. Her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, passed away in 2007 after a prolonged battle with ovarian and breast cancer.
The film, helmed by director Alice Winocour, delves into Maxine's relationships and her internal journey through diagnosis and treatment. Jolie praised Winocour's sensitive direction, noting the film's focus on life and resilience rather than solely on sadness and endings, a perspective that deeply touched her.
