Guess it is hard times for Jon Voight!
Though he is estranged from his daughter, Angelina Jolie, and probably has never even met most of his grandchildren, he is not above exploiting their enormous fame for his personal gain.
Look for the re-release of Angie’s big screen debut, Lookin’ to Get Out , on DVD this week, which he also produced.
She was itty-bitty then – a mere five years old! So cute!
It seems Voight got his hands on a newly edited copy from the late director Hal Ashby and he thought it was time for the world to revisit the critically crapped-on flick. He seems to think that the movie should be revisited, stating : “Hal was working on two other films at the time (of the movie’s release), and there was a lot of drama. Our film was handed over to other editors, and the result was a crippled movie. We were very hurt by the reception…Finally, this is the film he intended. It’s like a message in a bottle.”
Uh-huh. That’s one reason.
Or your desperately trying to remind people that you are related to Angelina and garner some pocket money while doing it.
If you were our Dad, we wouldn’t let you near our culturally mish-mosh family either!
