The source said,
Despite previous attempts at reconciliation, Jon’s loose lips have pushed Angie to cut off communication once more. He just can’t help himself. Angie has made it very clear she doesn’t want him talking about her private life — but he keeps opening his big mouth!
In addition to Voight’s aforementioned comments about her daughter’s political stance, he has also praised Jolie and her daughter’s recent Tony award win as co-producers on The Outsiders (via TMZ). Unfortunately, the father-daughter duo still have personal problems with each other and aren’t looking at a smooth reconciliation anytime soon.

Clint Eastwood Compared Angelina Jolie to Katherin Hepburn And Bette Davis
Clint Eastwood worked with Angelina Jolie in the 2008 drama Changeling. The film chronicled the real-life tragedy of Christine Collins who is vilified by the public and accused of being an unfit mother. She is admitted to a psychiatric facility after denying that the boy who was brought back (her son had gone missing) is not her actual son.
In an interview with Empire Magazine, Eastwood praised Jolie’s individuality as an actress and stated that she feels like a throwback to the women from the 40s. The director further declared that Jolie would have fared very well during that era along with iconic actresses like Katherine Hepburn and Bette Davis. Eastwood said,
To me, it’s like she’s [Jolie] a throwback to the women in film of the ’40s. Not to say the women today aren’t great, but back then there was more individuality, all the faces were different. I think she would have been just as big a name in that era than, the same as Katherine Hepburn and Bette Davis.
Jolie gave one the best performances of her career in the film as she played a grieving mother who would go to any length to find her son. She received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress and Eastwood’s sublime direction made Changeling a memorable feature. Fans can watch the film on Apple TV+.
