Angelina Jolie Talks By The Sea, Raising Her Family

Angelina Jolie recently sat down for an interview with Vogue, where she talked about her upcoming movie with Brad Pitt By the Sea, and raising her family. The magazine quotes her as follows:

"We travel often to Asia, Africa, Europe, where they were born. The boys know they’re from Southeast Asia, and they have their food and their music and their friends, and they have a pride particular to them. But I want them to be just as interested in the history of their sisters’ countries and Mommy’s country so we don’t start dividing. Instead of taking Z on a special trip we all go to Africa and we have a great time.”

On deciding to make By the Sea with Brad Pitt:
"[We called the script] the crazy one. We even called it ‘the worst idea.’ As artists we wanted something that took us out of our comfort zones. Just being raw actors. It’s not the safest idea. But life is short. [The location shoot] was our honeymoon. [The film]’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.
