During their conversation, Maltin asked Jolie about her experience being nominated for and winning an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2000. “I’m trying to think about how much I’m going to share right now,” Jolie said.

Angelina Jolie's history with the Oscars predates her winning the first time. At the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on February 5, the Maria star discussed an emotional family memory linked to the night Hollywood chooses its finest.

The 49-year-old actress reflected on her beloved late mother Marcheline Bertrand – who died in 2007 aged 56 from ovarian and breast cancer – and revealed the heartbreaking moment her mum watched her famous dad Jon Voight accepted an Oscar alongside his mistress.

Angelina Jolie has opened up about winning an Academy Award and why she 'gave' the prize to her mom. The Maria star is daughter to actors Marcheline Bertrand and Jon Voight. The pair married in 1971, but separated in 1976 after Voight's infidelity came to light. They later divorced in 1980.
