What Jolie said about Couture
Earlier, in an interview with Variety, the Oscar-winning actress said that she wore one of her late mother's necklaces to comfort herself during the film shoot.
She called it a “personal film,” adding, “It felt so private that in my mind, it's probably the one film that doesn't feel like a film.”
During a Q&A for the movie at TIFF, Jolie turned emotional speaking about her mother's experience with cancer.
Directed by Alice Winocour, Couture also stars Ella Rumpf, Garance Marillier, Anyier Anei, and Vincent Lindon.
