Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp have never appeared in a movie together. That all changes with "The Tourist," the spy thriller/romance in which Jolie seduces Depp, but for reasons that are not based purely on physical attraction.

The trailer is now circulating online and provides our first glimpse of what director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck has described as "incredible chemistry" between the two stars. It's a bit difficult to assess that chemistry in the trailer, though; many of the scenes feature close-ups of an impossibly sultry Jolie, or Depp seeming confused and/or panic-stricken. Still, the notion of Edward Scissorhands and Lara Croft, together at last, is pretty intriguing. Take a look and share your reaction to this cinematic pairing -- to be seen in December on the big screen.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie discusses her charity work with partner Brad Pitt and her six children because she doesn't have any friends she can speak to. The 35-year-old actress, who is on a visit to Pakistan to help flood victims of the nation, admitted she doesn't have many people in her life she can confide in except her partner Brad Pitt and their six children, reported CNN online. "I talk to my family - I talk to Brad, and he wants to know as much as he can about these issues and every trip. And he's been here as well. He came here with me after the earthquake in 2005," said Jolie.

"I don't have a lot of friends I talk to. He's really the only person I talk to. But I told my children. I think it also helps them to be better people to understand a little bit about the world," she added.

The 'Changeling' star, who is visiting Pakistan as the Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), said she is overwhelmed by the complex issues facing the country.

"I think it's complicated. I'm here with UNHCR and they've been in this country for 32 years, and I've been here four times and there's been four different reasons to come. There's one crisis after another. They've pretty much confronted every different type of disaster.

ISLAMABAD — Hollywood star Angelina Jolie urged people on Wednesday to put aside corruption fears and donate cash to help Pakistan's 21 million flood victims, as she ended a tour of areas devastated by deluges.

Pakistan's government has been heavily criticised at home and abroad over perceived corruption, which many attribute to the slow pace of donations to the UN's flood appeal, which has raised two thirds of its 460 million dollar goal.

"I don't want some people to use it (corruption) as an excuse not to give assistance," Jolie told reporters at the UN refugee agency's Islamabad office.

"I have seen what they have done in the field. I've physically seen people assisted, so if you are nervous about giving money directly in one way there are other ways to do it," she said.There have been allegations that aid funds have been mishandled since the start of the floods crisis six weeks ago, and despite massive relief efforts by the UN, United States and other donors, the UN has spoken of Pakistan's "image deficit" affecting donations.

The UN refugee agency (UNHCR) said its own appeal is only half-funded, and Elisabeth Byrs, spokeswoman at the Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, said extra monies were "still stagnating".

Jolie, clad in a grey dress and black head scarf, spoke after visiting the militant-hit northwest of the country, home to 1.7 million long-term Afghan refugees who have fled fighting in their neighbouring country.

Angelina Jolie, the UNHCR Ambassador, has released a video appealing for greater support for Pakistan flood victims.

The actress has already donated 100,000 dollars for the relief of flood victims. "These are not just humanitarian crises. This is an economic and a social catastrophe," the Daily Times quoted her as saying.

The floods have left one-fifth of Pakistan under water and have affected an estimated 17 million people.UNHCR is one of the numerous UN agencies that are on grounds with Pakistan in trying to provide relief to the flood victims, many of whom face a long wait before they can return to their homes and livelihoods. "The more support we can give, the greater number of tents, food, clean water and medication will get to the people in need," she added.

UNHCR has revised its section of wider appeal from 41 million dollars to 120 million dollars, as the needs of the flood victims continue to outpace the ability of aid groups to respond.

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has contributed $100,000 (about Pakistani Rs.8.5 million) for flood ravaged Pakistan, a move that surpasses President Asif Ali Zardari's Rs.5 million donation and the help extended by most other politicians.

Some leaders have refused to disclose their contribution to the relief effort and claimed that their donation had gone directly to their party's fund.

Dawn reported Wednesday that Jolie has contributed $100,000 while Zardari and Altaf Hussain, chief of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, claimed to have donated Rs.5 million each.
Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and top leaders of the Pakistan Muslim League-Q, Awami National Party and Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-F have not made donations in cash; instead, they donated in kind.

"The prime minister has already said that he does not believe in cash contribution and thus he did not deposit money in the fund, but his son in Multan dispatched many trucks of goods on behalf of the family," Dawn quoted the prime minister's press secretary Shabir Anwar as saying.

The floods started July 28 with heavy monsoon rains and went on to submerge thousands of villages, wash away hundreds of kilometres of roads, dozens of bridges and over 1.7 million acres of crops.

The country's worst natural disaster has killed over 1,600 people and affected about 20 million nationwide, with the threat of disease ever-present in the camps sheltering survivors.

Presidential spokesperson Farhatullah Babar said: "During his recent visit to the UK, President Zardari announced Rs.2.5 million in donation and after his return he contributed another Rs.2.5 million to the prime minister's flood relief fund."

He added that Zardari's children - Bilawal Zardari-Bhutto, Bakhtawar Zardari and Asifa Zardari - had set up a fund in Britain to collect donation from overseas Pakistanis and others.

Pakistan Muslim League-N chief Nawaz Sharif, Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif and their family have reportedly handed over goods worth Rs.25 million. But there was no contribution in cash.

"Sharif family has sent relief goods amounting to Rs.25 million to flood-hit areas," said PML-N spokesperson Siddiqul Farooq.

He criticised President Zardari for contributing just Rs.5 million.

Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan of the PML-N, has told his party members to donate to the Punjab chief minister's relief fund instead of the prime minister's fund.

Pakistan Tehrik-i-Insaaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan's monetary help stood at Rs.500,000.

"Khan donated Rs.500,000 from his own pocket. He and the party are actively participating in fund-raising campaigns," PTI's spokesperson Tahir Jamil said, and added that Khan would take 300 trucks carrying relief goods to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Sunday.

The contribution of PML-Q chief Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain and his family was Rs.25 million in kind.

"Relief goods have been dispatched to Multan, Muzaffargarh, Rajanpur and other parts of Punjab," said Mustafa Malik, PML-Q's deputy information secretary.

Angelina Jolie's increasingly slender appearance has provoked much comment. Now, Alison Carroll, the official model for the Lara Croft video game character portrayed by Jolie in two Hollywood films, has weighed in to the debate.

"It's good when she has got a nice healthy look, so I think she looked better as Lara Croft," said Carroll at the premiere of Bonded by Blood, at the Odeon Covent Garden. Experts were quoted in one report on Jolie, 35, attributing the bulging veins that could be seen on her arms, hands and fingers to too much exercise.

Carroll, 25, was keen to extol the virtues of Christina Hendricks, the voluptuous star of Mad Men. "She is definitely a role model," she told me. "She is fab."
