The Taormina Film Festival announced that the animated film Kung Fu Panda 2 in 3D will be the opening film at this year’s edition of the 57-year-old event. The Italian premiere of the film — directed by Jennifer Yuh Nelson and including the voices of Jack Black, Dustin Hoffman, Angelina Jolie, Jackie Chan and Seth Rogen — continues Taormina’s trend of serving as a launching pad for high-profile films. In 2010, the Sicily festival premiered with Toy Story 3 in 3D, and previous editions have hosted Transformers and Mission Impossible II. As with the other blockbusters to appear in Taormina, Kung Fu Panda 2 will screen in the festival’s centerpiece venue, the ancient and picturesque Teatro Antico. This year’s edition of the festival runs June 11-18.

Angelina Jolie has penned an article for The Economist, a London-based weekly international news and business publication. According to Britain’s The Guardian, Angie’s article will be published on November 14 in the Economist’s annual spin-off issue, The World in 2008. Angie’s piece covers the “accountability for the atrocities in Darfur” and her photo byline describes her as a “goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.” Angelina Jolie: Hollywood actress, UN goodwill ambassador, mother-of-four and now author for The Economist!
Here are some quotes:
– “Accountability is perhaps the only force powerful enough to break the cycle of violence and retribution that marks so many conflicts.”
– “I hope that the Sudanese government will hand over the government minister and the Janjaweed militia leader who have been indicted for war crimes (by the International Criminal Court in The Hague), and that the teenager I met in Chad will get the trial he seeks.”
– “I hope that those responsible for the atrocities in Darfur will be held to account, not only for that young man’s sake, but for the world’s.”
