Hollywood star Angelina Jolie's latest film Changeling is based on the harrowing true story of a single mother trying to track down her missing son.

Directed by Clint Eastwood, it is set in Los Angeles in 1928 and Angelina Jolie plays the part of the desperate mother, Christine Collins.

On his Sunday morning programme the BBC's Andrew Marr asked her how hard it had been to play the role of a single mother back in the 1920s when attitudes to the role of women were very different.
