Jolie shrugs off Atlas

Atlas Shrugged the film is off again [hat tip James Valliant]. Says Angelina Jolie, on whom (for reasons that still escape me) the whole project rests, says,
"the thing with Atlas is just, we all feel that it's one of those projects where if you can't do it right, you really can't touch it."
She sure got that right.
"So we have not had all the pieces come together. There's not been a director that's right to come on, or all of those elements. So until it does, you know, I certainly don't want to be a part of something that's just put together to hit 'this date."

If you were grounded in reality you would know that Jolie is the biggest female star in Hollywood. To have her in the film is a huge coup and will result in phenomenal publicity of Rand's work.

Jolie has shown great integrity here. I support her totally.
