 Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie is out of trouble now. The actress' directorial debut 'Romeo and Juliette', parts of which were supposed to be shot at Bosnia, was been stalled for non-completion of legal documents.
However, the latest reports suggest that work on the film can begin as Angelina Jolie has received the much-needed permit and will now be able to film in Bosnia.
?Romeo and Juliette? tells the story of a Bosnian Muslim woman in love with a Serb with the Bosnian War as the backdrop of the movie. As the story progresses, the woman is shown being raped by her lover. The trouble for the Angelina Jolie starrer began when Bakira Hasecic, a rape victim during the War and the President of the Women Victims of War Association situated in Sarajevo lodged a complaint with the ministry of Bosnia speaking against the content of the film. It was Angelina Jolie herself, who took the responsibility of clearing all doubts and erasing the offense that anyone may have felt after watching her film.
A representative from the sets of ?Romeo and Juliette? says that not only the rape but also the love story between the Bosnian and the Serb will be shown in the film, in fact it is the love that they share that ultimately leads to the condemnation that the man inflicts upon the woman. According to the latest reports, the ministry of Bosnia seems to have understood the storyline and have agreed to issue a working permit to Angelina Jolie. The filming will begin in late November.

Angelina Jolie may star as Cleopatra in a new film to be directed by James Cameron.
The director is in talks with Sony about making another film about Cleopatra, based on the book by Stacy Schiff.
Speculation started in July that Angelina Jolie was considering portraying Elizabeth Taylor in a biopic.
Since no word has surfaced on the Elizabeth Taylor biography since the summer, it?s likely that Angelina Jolie has moved on to the Cleopatra movie which Taylor played in 1963..
Academy Award-winning writer Brian Helgeland, who won a Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar for his work on ?L.A. Confidential,? is also in talks to pen the script. But Sony hasn?t made any official plans to hire Cameron, Jolie or Helgeland.
Hmm, it is not easy to reprise the Cleopatra role which the classic and ethereal beauty, Elizabeth Taylor, made her own. Nevertheless, it will still be an interesting comparison with sexy mom Angelina Jolie helming the film.

 | When Aniston got a letter from Jolie |
Former Friends star Jennifer Aniston was shocked when she once received a letter from actress Angelina Jolie. According to reports, Jolie, who raises six children with Aniston?s ex-husband Brad Pitt, decided to reach out to her in an attempt to put an end to their long-running feud.
"Angelina doesn?t want any more bad energy in her life and she hates the hostility that exists between her and Jen," showbizspy.co.uk quoted a source as saying.
"It?s taken her a very long time to work up the courage, but she?s coming from a good place and genuinely wants to put the past behind them," the source said.
"It may seem crazy, but for those of us who actually know Angelina, it really isn?t all that surprising. She?s an unpredictable character, so for her to reach out to Jen like this is just the sort of behavior she?s known for."
"In the note, Angie tells Jen that she would make a wonderful mother and that she?s at the perfect age and time of her life to have her first child. What?s more, Brad is fully behind her. He?s so proud of Angie for reaching out to Jen," the source added.
The source further said that when Aniston opened Jolie's note, she was "beyond shocked. I think she suspected at first that it must have been sent as some kind of a prank."
"Still, when Jen realised Angie?s letter was sincere and genuine, she actually went from shocked to being impressed. Being a mature person, Jen must have recognized how much of an effort it was on Angie?s part to have gone through with the letter," the source added.

 Angelina Jolie "doesn't have many friends" so relies on her partner Brad Pitt when she wants to talk.
The actress is currently in Pakistan, having travelled to the country to help raise money following the devastating floods in the country.
Angelina is a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador, and was keen to help those left homeless by the natural disaster.
The star gave a satellite interview to CNN to discuss the role, in which she admitted it can be a lonely one. Angelina raises six kids with Brad, and hates being away from her family for long periods of time.
"I'll talk to my family," she replied, when asked how she copes with the solitude. "I talk to Brad, he wants to know as much as he can about these issues and every trip. He's been here as well; he came with me after the earthquake. But I don't know, I don't have a lot of friends I talk to. He is really the only person I talk to."
Although she misses them, Angelina explained her kids are well aware of why she has gone away. She ensures they always understand why she is going to other countries to help, and hopes that gives them global awareness. Three of the children are adopted, and both Brad and Angelina are adamant they must learn about their homelands.
"I tell my children why I'm going and I explain to them why I was packing flashlights and food. They help me pack some things," she explained to interviewer Sanjay Gupta.
"My children are from a lot of these countries, so I want them to understand what's happening in Africa, the boys to understand what's happening if there's something current in their countries, and for all of them to know about each other's countries as well."
Angelina's nine-year-old son Maddox is from Cambodia, Pax, six, comes from Vietnam and five-year-old Zahara was born in Ethiopia. Her other kids are Shiloh, four, and two-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
