娱乐英语新闻:Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie thanks Gozitans for hospitality

2014-11-19来源:Xinhuanet

VALLETTA, Nov. 17 (Xinhua) -- Hollywood star Angelina Jolie thanked Gozitans for their "endless hospitality and generosity" during the shooting of her latest film By the Sea at Malta's Mgarr ix-Xini beach in Gozo, a local newspaper reported on Monday.

"It has been such a fulfilling experience to shoot By the Sea in Malta, and I am honored to have spent time on this beautiful island learning about its rich history and fascinating culture," said Jolie, "I am deeply grateful to all those who worked so hard on the film."

The film was labelled by the government as a "blockbuster" and the nine-week shooting was expected to pour millions into the Gozitan economy.

According to the Internet Movie Database (IMDB), Angelina Jolie is both the director and writer of this film as well as appearing in the role of Vanessa. By the Sea will be the first film she and her husband Brad Pitt have starred in together since Mr. and Mrs. Smith, shot in 2005.

Pitt has already shot a film in the Maltese archipelago; parts of the 2004 epic film Troy as well as World War Z (2013) were filmed there.
