A
ngelina Jolie shared a preview on Thursday of her
Netflix passion project First They Killed My Father.
The 41-year-old Oscar-winning
actress directed the film based on the 2000 memoir First They Killed My
Father: A Daughter Of Cambodia Remembers by Jolie's friend and former
refugee Loung Ung.
The preview clip
opened with a title card that read: 'Between 1975 - 1979 Pol Pot's Khmer

See, Angela Jolie showed a Vietnamese soldier defending the Khmer people from Khmer Rouge attack. I like her a lot more now.
