My, how quickly little Shiloh has grown! No, wait - that's a cherubic, 7-year-old Angelina Jolie, with those round cheeks and saucer eyes.
Jolie's film debut comes out on DVD Tuesday, in which her fans will be treated to scenes of the now-superstar looking convincingly fidgety alongside dad Jon Voight.
"Lookin' to Get Out," from 1982, also stars Ann-Margret and Burt Young and was directed by Hal Ashby.
The version due out Tuesday, 27 years after the film's release is a new cut the director gave to UCLA, reports Los Angeles Times blog The Dish Rag.
While Jolie is naturally adorable, anyone looking for hints of her Oscar-worthy acting may be disappointed by her brief scene.
Looks like acting is just another of Angelina's talents, like adopting children and saving the world, that took a while to fully develop.

A 'lost' film in which Angelina Jolie made her screen debut at the age of five is to be released on DVD for the first time. The screen beauty played the daughter of her real-life estranged father, Jon Voight, in flick, Lookin' To Get Out.The Las Vegas-set comedy, directed by Hal Ashby, was shot in 1980 on a budget of $17 million, but did not get a theatrical release until two years later. It was a huge critical and box-office failure – selling less than a million dollars worth of tickets. And it has never been available on video until Tuesday's DVD release of the newly edited version. Jolie's scene with Voight lasts just over a minute.

He explains to the blonde child that he's wearing bandages because he crossed against traffic and that he comes from New York.

The girl replies that the man she believes is her father – Ann-Margret's male companion in the movie, played by Richard Bradford – "visits New York" a lot. "I was a co-writer and co-producer, so I had a lot to say about the casting," said Voight, 70. He told the newspaper: "Angie was terrific, very well-prepared. I wasn't looking for any signs whether she'd be an actress." Tomb Raider actress Jolie, 34, has been estranged from her father for several years after he accused her of having "serious mental problems" on a US TV show.

Angelina Jolie became emotional as she described the children she has met in her work with the United Nations in war-torn areas around the world. Angie, 34, is devoting more and more time to her humanitarian efforts on behalf of children.

But she was moved to tears during an interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper, who was interviewing her about World refugee Day. She recalled one occasion when she met a 15-year-old boy.

"There was a young boy I met who was about 15 who had been shot in the back and paralyzed. And, and his whole family had been killed. And he was completely on his own.

"And… and, yet, he had this really remarkable, unbreakable spirit, a spirit beyond anything I can imagine having. The things we complain about on a daily basis, he had lost everything, and was just so full of laughter and kindness. And… and he passed away a few months after I was there.

"So I always wondered, you know, it's those kind of young people that you meet. And you just think, God, in any other situation, if this person had been given a chance, what an extraordinary adult he would have been.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are keeping their twins underwraps because of Knox and Vivienne’s fragile health.The babies will celebrate their 1st birthday on July 12 “They’re both hypersensitive,” says an insider. “Knox has trouble holding down his food. He spits up nearly every meal.”Vivienne apparently suffers from allergies: “Right now, she’s on a lactose and gluten-free diet, and she’s still underweight,” says the source.Angelina and Brad reportedly feel that the twins are better off behind closed doors for now.

Angelina Jolie has just scored herself yet another high-paying gig. She’s just been named the new face of Armani’s new fragrance line.

Angie will be fronting the new campaign for the scent, which is due to come out in stores later this year.

According to reports, Armani wanted a huge A-lister, and who’s more A-list than Angelina Jolie?? That means they must have been anticipating spending a whole lot of money, because Ang definitely doesn’t come cheap!

A fashion industry source tells Life & Style, “Armani rolled up the Brink’s truck for Angelina, because frankly, she’s worth it. For this fragrance push, they needed a true A-lister, and Angelina is the biggest, most dynamic female star in the world.”

The insider says Angelina is very hands-on with the process, saying, “She’s giving a lot of input on that stuff already, picking the photographers and directors. The campaign is going to be bold.”

Everything that woman does turns to gold so we don’t expect anything less than perfection!

Angelina Jolie may not be satisfied with just being the world’s most powerful celebrity, said New Zealand’s 3 News. According to a report in the British tabloid Daily Express, “Jolie wants to be the world’s most powerful person,” president of the United States. That’s not unrealistic. The “actor factor” worked for Ronald Reagan, and U.N. goodwill ambassador Jolie already “talks the political talk.”

The odds are slim—100-to-1 according to Irish bookmaker Paddy Power—that she’ll “dethrone” President Obama in 2012, said sports site Betting Pro. But her odds get better in 2016, at 50-to-1, and better still in 2020, at 33-to-1. And Paddy Power gives Jolie an overall 20-to-1 shot at ever winning the White House.

Maybe Jolie’s chances would improve if Obama put her on his ticket in 2012, said Bill Dalton in the Kansas City Star, bumping the “often poorly spoken” Joe Biden. According to the Express source, Jolie “admires” Obama, and she’ll be 37 in 2012, so she meets the constitutional age requirement. And she did bump Oprah from the No. 1 slot on Forbes’ most-powerful celebrity list. So why not go for the No. 1 slot in political power, too?

Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie is eyeing a career change. She is reportedly planning to swap her life as a movie star for politics.

The 'Tomb Raider' star is a goodwill ambassador for the UN and spends much of her time championing the rights of refugees and dedicating herself to philanthropic activities.

She is now reportedly planning to quit acting so she can concentrate full time on her political ambitions, reports the Daily Express.

'(She) has admitted she's getting bored with Hollywood. She said she's now got her sights set on Washington. She is passionate about people's rights, war and justice and thinks she can get more hands-on and make even more of a difference by getting into politics,' said a source.

Mumbai is buzzing with anticipation for Angelina’s big return to India. This can mean one of two things. Either she is preparing for a role in a gut wrenching thriller or she plans to add another member to the Jolie-Pitt clan. Well she’s not there to adopt another kid. That’s been put on the back burner for now as Angelina plans to reprise her role as Fox for "Wanted 2."

Director Timur Bekmabetov said, “In the late autumn or winter, shooting will begin. The shooting will take place in America, India, and Russia.”

This may come as a bit of a surprise to some of you because her character was killed in the original installment  of "Wanted."  I guess we are going to have to wait and see what the writers have up their sleeves, this is definitely a juicy plot twist. Well she was shot in the head after all, so this should be…better be quite interesting.

 I wonder if ‘Wanted 2’ can live up to its Oscar nominated predecessor. We all know Angie is not one to disappoint. Oh well, if all else fails we can bet that she won’t be leaving India empty handed. I suspect a little baby will find itself with a new family in the cushy confines of Beverly Hills, California by the end of her travels.

This will be Angelina’s second film shot in India. The first was her portrayal of Marianne Pearl in ‘A Mighty Heart’. The film was about the life and times of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter that was beheaded by terrorists a few years ago.
