Brangelina to host Katrina dinner

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are heading for the Hamptons, but it's not for a weekend of fun in the sun. The couple are hosting a dinner of about 50 people this Saturday night to benefit the victims of Hurricane Katrina. According to a source, the expectation is that the guests will make an extremely large financial commitment to the project. The dinner will take place at the home of producer Jane Rosenthal and her husband Craig Hatkoff. Jolie and Rosenthal are friendly from working together on The Good Shepherd, which Rosenthal produced. Jolie also premiered her documentary, A Place in Time, at the Tribeca Film Festival, which Rosenthal helped co-found with Robert De Niro. The couple is said to be traveling in and out by helicopter and not staying the weekend.
