Here are some photos of Angelina Jolie arriving in Italy ahead of the Venice Film Festival premiere of Maria. She stars as Maria Callas in Pablo Larrain’s latest biographical film. Angelina wore a “short-sleeve trench coat” as she arrived in Venice, and Vogue is obsessed with the summer trench and her Mulberry boots. Fingers crossed that Angelina doesn’t promote this film in a variety of sack dresses. Meanwhile, it’s looking pretty certain that Angelina will also go to Canada for the Toronto Film Festival. Not for Maria, but for the film she directed, Without Blood. Not only will she premiere Without Blood at TIFF, she’s also receiving the TIFF Tribute Award. Good!
Angelina Jolie is set to receive the TIFF Tribute Award in Impact Media at the upcoming Toronto Film Festival.
The Oscar-winning actress will be honored on Sept. 8 at the TIFF fundraiser, while also bringing her latest film, Without Blood, to Toronto for a world premiere. Written, directed and produced by Jolie, Without Blood is a war drama based on the Alessandro Baricco novel of the same name and tells the story of a girl’s quest for revenge and healing during a time of conflict. Salma Hayek Pinault and Demián Bichir have lead roles.
Jolie will be feted alongside fellow trophy winners Amy Adams, Jharrel Jerome, Cate Blanchett, Mike Leigh, Durga Chew-Bose, David Cronenberg, Clément Ducol, and Camille and Zhao Tao. TIFF Tribute Award honorees tend to have films in Toronto’s official lineup.
Jolie also brought her earlier films First They Killed My Father and The Breadwinner, which she executive produced, to Toronto for launches.
Jolie fans, I really hope that we have an amazing fall and an amazing awards season. I don’t have a sense of how Without Blood will be received, but the early buzz on Maria is that it will be an awards contender. I think Angelina will probably promote both films concurrently, and it will help if Without Blood gets some critical buzz too. So many red carpets! So many capes and sack dresses! I’m so excited. As for this TIFF award… yeah, they pass these out like candy, but still, it’s nice. I’m glad she’s being honored.

I love this outfit and I am looking forward to all the Angelina fashion posts. If her kids are with her on the red carpet, they are really fashionable as well so looking forward to seeing them in their outfits.
🙌🙌🙌👆
LOL! On the sack dresses. As long as she’s happy wearing formless sack dresses (they do look comfortable), so be it. I didn’t care for that hideous velvet gown she wore to the Tonys. I do love this Venice look! Trench coat, boots, sunglasses and all!!! I’m looking forward to seeing Angie and Salma Hayek this award season.
I am so ready for Angelina Jolie, the Oscar winning actress to showcase her skills. For the Maria premiere in Venice, I would love for it to focus on her and the director, Pablo Larrain.
This is both ugly and ridiculous with the short sleeves. And the color is so dreary I want to cry. I don’t understand how such a beautiful person consistently has such bad fashion sense.
It’s not your taste, and it’s not ugly or ridiculous.
Agree Chaine.
I like the look, but I know it’s not everyone taste. Angelina does Angelina — I think she wears what she wears for the occasion or comfort and doesn’t think much about it afterwards. She’s not a fashionista interested in setting trends. Not everyone is a fan of her sack dresses either. Like others have said, I am hoping she will wear Atelier Jolie in Venice and Toronto.
@Mireille Exactly!
@Chaine, personally I love the colour and fit of the trench, but hate the short sleeves. Wouldn’t like them on anyone, but particularly with Angelina having scrawny elbows (and I say that with love as I think she’s a stunning looking woman) they don’t do any favours.
It’s the short sleeves that makes this interesting and cool. I wouldn’t wear the regular trench, I find it too boring, but i’d wear this! Proof that taste is just different from one person to another.
Angelina looks fabulous! Love the trench. Not everyone could carry it off the color, the style, or the look. Now that’s how you do a coat dress!
I don’t like long coats with long skirts because I think it’s awkward but Angelina looks fabulous. Looking forward to her on the red carpets this fall and winter!
Such a cute trench coat! I’ve been stanning Angelina for a loooong time, but I have to say I’ve never liked her as a blonde, even with this more natural honeyed color (this makes me ancient, but I still remember how much I hated her blonde, Marilyn hair in Life, or Something Like It). I hope she goes back to medium/dark brown, which truly is the most gorgeous on her!
