The Academy Awards are more than nine months away, but already people are talking about “A Mighty Heart”, a new film with Angelina Jolie.

The movie was shown yesterday at Cannes, the most famous film festival in the world.

The film is about Daniel Pearl, a reporter for The Wall Street Journal who was murdered in Pakistan.

Jolie plays the role of Pearl’s widow Mariane.

“The film is a certain Oscar nominee,” wrote critic Roger Friedman.

The film is based on a book by Mariane Pearl.
