Angelina Jolie an Ayn Rand fan??

I didn't know that Angelina Jolie was a Randian.

Angelina Jolie has won her dream role - as author Ayn Rand's iconic heroine Dagney Taggart. Jolie, a longtime fan of Russian-born Rand, has been quietly campaigning to play Taggart in new film Atlas Shrugged - and now she's landed the role, according to trade newspaper Daily Variety.

1. for someone who is as charitable as Jole...

I am surprised that she would be a fan of Rand's works

Rand's philosophy is about greed and not charity.

3. Wow

My least favorite actress in my least favorite author's work.

For once, it all works out to be something I can completely ignore.
