'I want to hurt you' Heartbreaking acting class video of Angelina Jolie screaming & crying
AN extraordinary early video shows Angelina Jolie screaming and crying and baring her emotions.
In the video recorded during an acting class, Jolie cries: "I feel like I have no voice. I want, I want to hurt you. I need to hurt you.

The rediscovered grainy video is a recording of the star in an acting class, a million miles away from the polished Hollywood icon we are used to seeing these days.
The emotionally charged scene with another actress on a bed centres on two women unable to give each other what they need.

Some of the scenes were so emotionally charged that the film crew felt like like they were being drawn into a real domestic drama.
Jolie revealed: “There’s really heavy fighting in it so I think sometimes the crew felt like, ‘Mum and dad are having a fight!’"
