Angelina Jolie shines at Santa Barbara film fest despite Oscar snub
Angelina Jolie did not receive an Oscar nomination for her titular role in the film "Maria Callas." However, she was honored with an award at the Santa Barbara Film Festival. The actress dazzled on the red carpet, posing for photographers in a slip dress with an open back. Once again, she demonstrated her elegance.
According to some critics, Angelina Jolie has reached the peak of her acting abilities. In the film Maria Callas, she embodies the famous opera singer. After the screening at the Venice Film Festival, she received an eight-minute standing ovation. However, the Academy's representatives apparently did not share this enthusiasm, so the actress did not receive an Oscar nomination.
Recently, she attended the Santa Barbara Film Festival, where she received the Maltin Modern Master Award, the festival's most prestigious honor, given to individuals who have significantly enriched the film industry. Jolie appeared on the red carpet and once again proved she advocates minimalism, which leaves an impact.
Angelina Jolie shone in a satin outfit
Angelina Jolie exudes modesty. Her styling does not allow for extravagance. The star opts for simplicity with an element of surprise. At the festival, she wore an off-white satin dress that was floor-length and reminiscent of a slip. The dress featured a straightforward form, a high neckline, and thin straps.
A backless dress, or how to make an impression
The uncovered back, complemented by the perfectly draped excess of material, made quite an impression. The only downside to this styling was the black slingback pumps, which seemed too heavy when paired with Jolie's delicacy.
