Jolie torments, Pitt smiles at ‘The Tourist’ premiere

Angelina Jolie enticed in an ivory Atelier Versace angora gown at the premiere of her latest film, The Tourist.
She was accompanied by her partner Brad Pitt.

She accessorized with matching Salvatore Ferragamo pumps and spectacular rectangle earrings by her personal jewelry designer Robert Procop.

Her hair was styled half up half down with a heavily teased top and peek-a-boo bangs.

Speaking to the media at the premiere about her makeover in the film, Jolie said, "I had never played a lady... really... before... I had played a version of a kind of a girl... something really tough, or something cool."

"I found it a big challenge to play someone extremely European, elegant, little bows and little pink. It was all very foreign to me," she added.

Speaking about working with co-star Johnny Depp - who looked dapper at the event in a 3 piece pin stripe Polo Ralph Lauren suit - Jolie said they both had seen and liked each other's films but had never met before.

"And we met and we talked about kids for the first hour and France for the second and had a good laugh. We really enjoyed working with each other in the film and I hope that comes across," she added.

The film is due in theaters on December 10.

Busty 'Queen of Horror' Ingrid Pitt dies at 73

Ingrid Pitt, who shot to fame starring in a number of cult horror classics including 'Countess Dracula', has died at the age of 73.

The Polish-born actress, often dubbed the 'Queen of Horror' for her roles in classic Hammer films, passed away at a South London hospital after collapsing a few days ago, reports the BBC.

Doctors are reported to have told her that she was suffering from heart failure.

Pitt''s daughter Stephanie Blake said that her mother''s death had come as a 'huge surprise'.

"She could be incredibly generous, loving, and she''ll be sorely missed," she said.

Blake added that she wanted her mother to be remembered as the 'Countess Dracula' with the 'wonderful teeth and the wonderful bosom'.

The star''s death comes just weeks after Roy Ward Baker, the director of Pitt''s movie 'The Vampire Lovers', died at the age of 93.

Marcus Hearn, the official historian for Hammer, called Pitt a 'talented actress and fine writer'.

"She was partly responsible for ushering in a bold and brazen era of sexually explicitly horror films in the 1970s, but that should not denigrate her abilities as an actress," he said, adding: "All fans of Hammer and of British horror are going to miss her terribly".
