Angelina Jolie has been given back a permit to film in Bosnia that was briefly withdrawn because of rumors that her movie featured a rape victim who falls in love with her assailant, her producer said Monday.


Permission to film had been withdrawn last week, with the government citing incomplete paperwork
.
Jolie was given back the permit for her first project as a director after the country's culture minster was given the script in an attempt to assure him the rumors were false, said Edin Sarkic, Jolie's Bosnian producer. The minister did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.
"It's a big thing for Bosnia that such a mega, mega star is coming to Sarajevo."

The Oscar-winning actress is shooting the film in Budapest. Her production company said it was a love story between a Serbian man and a Bosnian Muslim woman who meet on the eve of the Bosnian 1992-95 war, which killed 100,000 people.

The Association of Women Victims of War protested Jolie's production after hearing rumors that the film's main characters — a Bosnian woman and a Serb man — were a rape victim and rapist.
Culture minister Gavrilo Grahovac pulled the filming permit Wednesday.


Sarkic said that the newly restored permit will allow Jolie and her crew to start filming in Sarajevo in November. They are currently filming in Hungary. He said the whole controversy was "unnecessary".

"There are many twists in the plot that address the sensitive nature of the relationship between the main characters and that will be revealed once the film is released," she said last week. "My hope is that people will hold judgment until they have seen the film."

ANGELINA Jolie has told Jennifer Aniston to stay away from her kids!

According to American tabloid the National Enquirer, the 35-year-old actress has angrily urged Aniston to stay away from her six children's lives.
“Angie told Brad that it was one thing for him to hang out with ‘That woman’,” a source said, “but it would be quite another if he let her see the children.
“The last thing she wants is Jen trying to act like some kind of surrogate mother to her six kids. She cannot imagine anything more distressing — and at the same time she does not want any of them getting confused about what is happening to their family.
rican tabloid claimed Jolie launched the warning because Pitt reportedly has resumed his "totally innocent" relationship with Aniston. A source told the tabloid, "Angie told Brad that it was one thing for him to hang out with 'That woman'. But it would be quite another if he let her see the children."
"Angie doesn't want the kids, and particularly the ones who are too young to understand, like 4-year-old Shiloh, why Brad is spending time with another woman." The site mentioned that Jolie didn't ban Pitt from meeting Aniston as long as he was not with the kids.
The source said, "As usual, Brad explained to her that his friendship with Jen is totally innocent and all about business. She told him that's fine and she accepts there is nothing she can do about it."


“But she said the kids might not be so understanding and might even get upset that dad was spending so much time with another woman who happens to be his ex-wife.
“Now, Angie has flat out banned him from seeing Jen when he’s with the children. Other than that, she said, what he does on his own time is his own business.”
Recent reports claimed Jolie, 35, is planning to adopt an orphan from Haiti following a recent trip to the Caribbean country.

Actress Angelina Jolie has quietly returned to Haiti for meetings with Haitian and U.N. officials.


Jolie, who is well known for her interest in children, was on a fact-finding trip to learn more about the situation of Haiti's children, particularly those left homeless and orphaned by the Jan. 12 earthquake.
U.N. officials confirmed the visit when asked by The Associated Press. They agreed to discuss the trip only if not quoted by name because they were asked not to share details of Jolie's visit.
Jolie is a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, UNHCR. She met judges, lawyers, ministry of social affairs officials and other actors involved in children's issues to get a sense of the problem.
The actress has also visited Iraq, Thailand, Pakistan and other countries on behalf of the U.N. refugee agency.
