Angelina Jolie Opens Up About Her Marriage: 'Brad and I Have Our Issues'
October 16, 2015
It's been about 10 years since Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have shared the big screen together. While the filming their new movie By the Sea was a bit of a "honeymoon" for the couple, the actress also admits that their marriage isn't perfect.
The Today show offered a first look into Jolie's photo shoot and interview with Vogue magazine, in which she talked about working with Pitt again and posed with her husband and their six children.
By the Sea is a lot more dramatic then Jolie and Pitt's 2007 romantic comedy Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
Set in France during the mid-1970s, the film follows former dancer
Vanessa (Jolie) and her husband Roland (Pitt), an American writer, as
they travel the countryside together. The couple seem to be growing
apart, but when they linger in a quiet seaside town, they begin to draw
close to some of its more vibrant inhabitants.
Jolie, 40, directed and wrote the
screenplay, but insists that it's not autobiographical. "Brad and I
have our issues, but if the characters were even remotely close to our
problems we couldn't have made the film," she told the publication.
Jolie says she and Pitt referred to the script as the "crazy one" for
years.
"As
artists we wanted something that took us out of our comfort zones," she
said of the emotional movie. "Just being raw actors. It's not the
safest idea. But life is short."

In August 2014, the A-list couple were married and
almost immediately jetted off with their children to to the
Mediterranean island of Gozo, near Malta, to begin shooting scenes for
the movie. Jolie says this was their "honeymoon."
This
sounds like a somber honeymoon considering the emotional rollercoaster
that the movie takes. "This is a story about a relationship derailed by
loss, the tenacity of love and the path to recovery and acceptance,"
Jolie and Pitt told ET in a joint statement. "It has been a privilege to
explore these universal human experiences with such a generous and
talented cast and crew."
By the Sea hits theaters Nov. 13. Here's a look at the trailer:
