Angelina Jolie mandates no after partying for 'A Mighty Heart'

Angelina Jolie feels it will not be appropriate to celebrate the screening of the film 'A Mighty Heart' in Cannes on Monday night with 'dancing and singing and carrying on.'

The film is based on a novel by Mariane Pearl, wife of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl who was kidnapped and brutally slain by terrorists in Pakistan.

Directed by Michael Winterbottom, the film features Jolie as Mariane, who was pregnant with Daniel's son Adam at the time of his abduction.

Jolie expressed her sentiments after seeing the film recently.

Instead of an after party, a quiet dinner is being planned that will be attended by Winterbottom, the producers, members of the cast and Mariane Pearl, who will be traveling from her home in Paris.

Mariane and Daniel's parents in the US have already seen the film.

Mariane's lineage is Cuban and there has been some debate over the internet as to why a Caucasian actor was picked to essay her role. However, Mariane approved of the Oscar-winning Jolie before filming started. Since then Mariane and Jolie have bonded and become close friends.
