1. Angelina Jolie receives award
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Angelina Jolie, Actress:
"I am very emotional and I'm probably going to cry right now, so I apologize ahead of time. I wanted to just learn a few years ago and I had learned so much about the UN and I had read so many amazing things that some of the people in this room, the things that you write, and I felt unintelligent and not a part of that world, and I wanted so much to be allowed to learn. And when... I read a lot, and when I eventually called you in UNHCR because I couldn't believe that that many people could be displaced, and I wanted to know what that meant and how that could happen, they, even though it was a crazy strange actress they kind of said alright we will let you see. I didn't want to get in the way and I met these amazing people and I was suddenly in an environment where journalists, and war photographers, and field officers are all working together to help other people. I had never seen that before in my life. And I was really just so inspired and so humbled that they let me just be there. That's how I feel tonight, so I'm really just happy. I'm so emotional. I'm just so happy to be part of the UN and to be a part of this family that are doing good to just help other people. That is what their focus is at the end of the day. And this award, being named after Sergio who I never got the chance to meet but people, kept telling me a few years ago 'oh you have to meet this guy', he is the most, you're going to love him, he is the most amazing person, everybody just can't say enough good things about him. I was so excited to meet him and I never will but every time I look at this I'm going to be reminded of him. If in some tiny way I have the honour of being connected and associated to such a great man I am really happy. I wish he was standing here and not me, but I am very happy to be here and thank you very much."

Entertainment: US Taking Lives: Angelina Jolie speaks about tense thriller
APTN
New York, 17 March 2004
1. SOUNDBITE (English) Angelina Jolie - researching role:
"Well I met with different profilers because that is what she does. I met with a lot of the different women that do this for a living, they are observers and very sensitive people and they are very cool. I think it's a very interesting thing to do for a living. It's not something that you can just volunteer to do but it is something that you have to prove that your sixth sense is correct over a certain amount of times to work with the FBI."
2. SOUNDBITE (English) Ethan Hawke:
"I like verbal people, I like playing verbal people, people that are good with how they speak, it amuses me and it's an element that I bring to a lot of different parts that I play. This movie was fun because it's been a while since I have done any.. whilst this is a dark romance, there is a romance to this movie and I really enjoy acting with women."
