Her dual natured mix of vice and virtue creates a layered perception of unanswered questions, could she be elusive and complex, affectionate and generous, a free-spirited philanthropist or self promoting antagonist?

The truth is that an easily-bored Angelina will continue to be a subject of intrigue as her numerous projects and interests remain free from routine.

Her imaginative, restless and quick-witted nature demands her to live a multi-layered life filled with numerous activities; her acting career alone will never be fulfilling enough. A personality trait which can be expressed positively or negatively.

A look at an earlier, more youthful and slightly confused Angelina shows a individual who sought satisfaction and fulfillment with a darker, if not a shock factor form of self expression.

Her defiance included odd public statements about her brother, an interest in sadomasochism and even stranger marriages.

She used her appearance to make a statement, appearing on the red carpet inappropriately dressed in black leather and boots, a form of outward expression of her internal struggle and personal journey.

A stark contrast to the Angelina of late, who has centered her restless energy into more meaningful projects.

One undeniable influence in her life has been men. For many years, men shaped the way Angelina defined herself. At pinnacle points of each transformation, there's been a man who defined her character and affected her opinions.

Unfortunately, this is an all too common problem with women, who in order to improve their self worth seek constant approval from an outside influence.

It wasn't until Angelina was alone and in a very different type of relationship, motherhood, that she could really shape the way she lived her life and change the way she dressed.
