Angelina Jolie turned heads as she graced the red carpet at the San Sebastián International Film Festival, radiating effortless elegance in a striking black velvet gown. The 50-year-old actress and humanitarian stunned in the floor-length number, which featured a daring plunging neckline and figure-skimming silhouette, exuding Old Hollywood glamour with a contemporary edge.
Wearing her signature honey-blonde locks loose and softly tousled, Angelina complemented the dramatic gown with bold red nails and stunning Graff white diamond High Jewelry earrings, as well as a Graff emerald cut diamond solitaire ring. Her makeup was equally captivating, with a defined eye, rosy cheeks, and a glossy lip adding to her youthful glow.
At the event Angelina made a bold statement as expressed she loves her country but does not "recognise it", as she said we are living through "very heavy times".

It comes in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, and the subsequent criticism and claims of government censorship that followed when Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night talk show was suspended for comments about reactions to his death.
"I love my country but I don’t, at this time, recognise my country," she said. "I’ve always lived internationally. My family’s international, my friends, my life, my world view is equal, united, international.

"So I’ll be careful during a press conference, but to say that, of course, like all of you and everyone watching, these are very, very heavy times. We’re all living it together."

The decision by US network ABC to pull Jimmy Kimmel Live! from its schedules has led to widespread criticism from the likes of Hollywood stars Ben Stiller and Jamie Lee Curtis.
