According to Pitt, they don't always agree.Speaking with Reuters at Saturday's Producers Guild Awards in Beverly Hills, Pitt said that he and Jolie, who are each busy on both sides of the camera as well as raising six children together, will talk shop at the end of a long day.
"Usually we argue shop every now and then," Pitt said, noting that they tend to differ in their approach. "She's much more decisive, she's much more quick. I've got to see everything. I've got to shop the entire eBay to know exactly what I want and what I need."
When he's stumped, Pitt said, "I'll always go to her and talk it out."
Jolie, who received the guild's Stanley Kramer Award for her directorial debut, "In the Land of Blood and Honey," said Pitt's role as a producer calls for different skills. He produced and starred in "Moneyball," one of the 10 films nominated for the Producers Guild's top prize.
"I had to direct, I think it's different. I think he'd execute properly if he was the director," Jolie said. "But I do like to think of myself as decisive, so I'll take that."
Regarding her first work in the director's chair, a love story set amid the harrowing destruction of the Bosnian War, Jolie said her intention "wasn't to make a political statement against anybody. It was simply to say, 'We must talk about what happened, we must try to learn from what happened, we must try to see humanity on all sides,' and if we can, then we can start to move forward."
On the other hand, Jolie admitted that she was "fascinated" by a political matter somewhat closer to home: the Republican presidential race.
"There's that part of us that's wanting to learn about what's going on, and wanting to see who could possibly be the next president, and taking that very seriously, which it is. And then there's that other part of it that is this strange television ... these characters that we're watching. So you try to kind of separate that," Jolie said, adding that "it goes into the bizarre sometimes."

Thierry • Richmond, Virginia • 3 days ago Bizarre is right! I love that Angelina and I see eye to eye regarding the Republican race. xxloveDisxx • 3 days ago is it strange that i think they totally love each other ? Me More • 3 days ago ...love them. Tyler • 3 days ago I think they'll stay together for a long time. Celebrity marriages end in divorce anyway. petal • 3 days ago Angelina, you are much too kind. It's bizarre pretty much ALL the time, and getting weirder by the minute. ME • 3 days ago Beautiful, talented couple! Best of luck to them! Mary • 3 days ago i love theme both i really excited to see the movie adette • Dubai, United Arab Emirates • 2 days 12 hrs ago perfect partner The Manifestation of all ... • Iowa City, Iowa • 1 day 20 hrs ago This thread is fu(king comical! It looks like all the comments are from housewives who live for their supermarket celeb mags. These two are the most annoyingly self-important #$%$ in the business. That's saying something. The Manifestation of all ... • Iowa City, Iowa • 1 day 20 hrs ago Anyone who dares make a negative comment about the anointed couple gets a flurry of thumbs down. TallConnect.Com • Redwood City, California • 3 days ago OMG, she is so beautiful. she is tall. she is hot, she is good looking. find her here (my name) Vanilla Face • Miami Beach, Florida • 3 days ago Both of these two are terrible actors and human beings...they deseve each other. Elizabeth • 3 days ago I thought Brad was the hottest thing ever when I saw him in Thelma & Louise...and his bare butt too! But, what a jerk for what he did to Jennifer....total turn off. I would so NOT be into a guy like that, no matter what he looks like or what money or what fame. Even though I don't look like Angie (but I'm cute, smart, well off, productive, etc) you couldn't pay me to be with that dude. Just Another Deletion • 2 days 23 hrs ago this is a good place to hide out! :) ~peace thomas :):) Stacey Kramer • 3 days ago congratulations on your award Angelina I'm going to see your movie but I'm going to read the book first Sam • Austin, Texas • 3 days ago omg, her teeth look like a roller coaster Jon Soto • Encino, California • 3 days ago Really, this is news? Charity • Phoenix, Arizona • 3 days ago WHY do they keep promoting her loser, boring movie? NOT interested. And why keep mentioning they have six kids? As if the world doesn't already know! Elizabeth • 3 days ago and since "arguably" means questionable - are they saying that after all this fawning over them, they may NOT be the highest profile couple? Maybe they need a proofreader! Al • 2 days 22 hrs ago Two entire different points of view. Brad's views on filmmaking are from his prospective of standing up. Angelina's views are based on her prospective of lying down.
