BRAD PITT HONORED BY THE NEW YORK FILM CRITICS CIRCLE

Jet-setting power couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie brought their own brand of star power to the New York Film Critics Circle awards Monday (Jan. 9) where Pitt was crowned best actor.

Before the awards ceremony, Pitt said creative fulfillment and the longevity of a project is how he measures the success of his work.

"We're trying to make a film that has something to say now and the question is does it have something to say in five years in 10 years, 20 years. That's always been the quest. This is a nice bi-product of that," he explained.

Pitt said he relished the chance to catch up with friends like George Clooney during the grind of a jam-packed awards season.

"Yeah it's nice. Yeah I'm really happy that George is along for the ride because he's just - no one does it better. But it's a, I look forward to get back to making things, at the same time you know it's a really honor. It's fun. It's a time that we all get to catch up again and we've all been in different parts of the world filming so you get to see the (acting) community, so it's nice for that."

It was a double celebration for the Hollywood dad who was honored for his performances in the baseball film "Moneyball" and Terrence Malick's cosmic drama "Tree of Life."

"Well you love them for different reasons and they're - it's not just the film itself, it's the time you spent on it. They're mile markers in a way for your own personal experience," said Pitt.

Both of those films also earned other awards: "Tree of Life" for best cinematography by Emmanuel Lubezki and "Moneyball" for Steven Zaillian and Aaron Sorkin's screenplay.

The evening's big winner was silent film ode "The Artist," which took the year's best film award, giving the nostalgic black-and-white movie an early boost to its already promising Academy Awards prospects.

"The Artist" also earned best director for the French filmmaker Michel Hazanavicius, who said he was not fully prepared for the awards season mania to begin.

"I think you can't be ready. You can't prepare yourself for someone like that. What we can do is to enjoy every single hour of that adventure, sure," said Hazanavicius.

Meryl Steep was chosen as best actress for her performance as Margaret Thatcher in the upcoming "The Iron Lady." The suddenly ubiquitous Jessica Chastain won best supporting actress for a trio of performances in "Tree of Life," "The Help" and "Take Shelter."

"He's just such a consummate professional and great actor," said Chastain of her "Tree of Life" co-star. "Of course he's Brad Pitt, the movie star legend. But he really is more for me now, I see him as Brad Pitt the serious, brilliant actor."

Albert Brooks earned best supporting actor for his against-type performance as a violent villain in the drama "Drive."

"I was lucky enough to win a New York Film Critics (award) as a writer for my movie 'Mother' and you know this is a critics group that's been doing this since the middle 1930s. So they began this whole thing. So it feels like the granddaddy of them. It does mean something," said Brooks.

The financial industry thriller "Margin Call" won best first feature. And the Iranian drama "A Separation" was picked for best foreign film.

"I'm very happy because before my films in the festivals have always had some reception, but this time the festivals have become a connection between the people and the critics," said Iranian director Asghar Farhadi.

The New York Film Critics Circle, a body of 33 New York-based critics founded in 1935, announced their annual vote on Twitter for the first time. The group describes its awards as "a principled alternative to the Oscars, honoring esthetic merit in a forum that is immune to commercial and political pressures." The group last year chose the Facebook drama "The Social Network" as best picture.

Among the films snubbed by the critics were Alexander Payne's "The Descendants," Martin Scorsese's "Hugo" and Steven Spielberg's "War Horse."

1. SOUNDBITE (English) Brad Pitt:

"Well it really started as a strict action film, really. I mean, let me say this, the metaphors were always there, the outline was always there but it really depended on who was telling the story and fortunately we got Doug Liman. In someone else's hands it could have very easily been just an action film, a straightforward action film. But what you see in this one, is that the action is always secondary, it's always behind, it's the backdrop for whatever is going on in the relationship, which usually is some kind of bickering or fighting and it's really well done that way."

2. SOUNDBITE (English) Angelina Jolie - with a different take on the origins of the film:

"I think what happened, strangely enough, is that we read the script and it had some action in it and really it was a relationship comedy and then I think Brad and I, being two people that love action and the stunt coordinator knowing him from 'Troy' and me from 'Tomb Raider' , the action scenes suddenly went from three days to three weeks and everything got more competitive and bigger and bigger and bigger, so it turned more into an action movie."

3. SOUNDBITE (English) Brad Pitt:

"I am quite proficient with a weapon and so is she., frighteningly so. She's a really good shot, she is."

4. SOUNDBITE (English) Angelina Jolie - on training for the dance sequence with Pitt:

"There was a few days rehearsal and it was just funny because you know, we can do stunt practice or gun training for days but brought to a dance class was kind of like 'Oh God, it's that day. It's dance class'. But it ended up being very fun and especially because of all the weapons and the story in between it but yeah it was funny."

5. SOUNDBITE (English) Brad Pitt - on filming a key action scene in his underwear:

"Actually freer, in your underwear - less constricting, greater range of movement. I think we had an advantage. I think that's why you see the great fighters, like sumo-wrestlers really need to strip down for agility."

6. SOUNDBITE (English) Pitt:

(Q: Would you consider doing a 'Mr. And Mrs. Smith' series?)

"Oh God, I don't know, I mean I have no idea. I have no idea at this point."

20. SOUNDBITE (english) Angelina Jolie:

"Um, I think (laughs) no. During the film, there was always the joke about the sequel and it was always like, 'We'll be back for the sequel!' but I can't imagine what that would be."

And they have had an amazing adventure and have made many friends here. Our son has friends here now so that was why. And also we just love this part of the world.

So I usually am in Washington and depending on where we can be now because of travel restrictions and the new baby but I may be able to make it to Washington, if not I'll be delivering a statement from Los Angeles.

BRAD PITT AND CAST ATTEND 'FURY' WORLD PREMIERE IN WASHINGTON DC

It was a rainy night in Washington DC but that didn't keep the stars from coming out Wednesday (15 OCT. 2014) for the world premiere of "Fury."

Brad Pitt, Shia LaBeouf and the rest of the cast walked the red carpet and posed with World War II veterans.

Speaking at the event, Pitt explained the importance of telling this brutal account of war.

"I think that we're still living in very violent, chaotic times, times that we don't understand to the fullest," he said.

"It is considered a cleaner war, yet, again, my time with vets and men who were there at that time, they will tell you that the realities of the Geneva Convention couldn't come to play at the end there when they were deep into Germany. It was murkier. It was just murkier and certainly what was witnessed was every bit as awful as what's witnessed by our young men and women today."

Pitt plays a hardened Army sergeant named Wardaddy, who commands a five-man tank crew on a deadly mission into Nazi Germany after the allied invasion.

The 50-year-old actor saw no reason why his 13-year-old son Maddox shouldn't see the film, despite its realistic violence.

"My oldest son has seen it, yeah. My oldest son has seen it. He's a World War II buff," Pitt said.

He explained his rationale.

"I come from a different generation I guess as far as that's concerned," he said.

"My father would take us to the Drive-In as very young kids and we'd see Clint Eastwood movies and Kung Fu movies. I just have a different take on that. The world is a beautiful place, it's also a very violent place and we talk about it afterwards and I'm not so opposed."

LaBeouf looked past the violence and felt camaraderie with his cast mates.

"There's a lot of love in that tank, overwhelming love. I never had brothers, so it's wild to make that happen out of nowhere. Strangers turn into brothers in seven months. It's a trip," LaBeouf said.

That provided a better understanding of the bonds men make during war.

"It's unconditional love. Society doesn't really allow for men to unconditionally love one another unless you're at war," LaBeouf said.

LaBeouf - often tabloid fodder during the last year - was involved in an incident in June that began with getting ejected from the Broadway musical, "Cabaret," and ended with him spending the night in jail.

The actor isn't dwelling on the negative press though.

"It's fun to laugh about stuff," LaBeouf said.

Former "Walking Dead"' star Jon Bernthal feels it was necessary to make the film as real as possible to honor those that served during World War II.

"I think the goal here was to dive in as fully as possible. Look, what we get to do is we get to work under the umbrella of safety. We're trying to get as fair, as fresh and as real a taste of what life really would have been like for these guys, so we pushed ourselves to go to as dark a place as possible and to endure as much as possible and get as proficient on that tank as possible, so I'm proud for the commitment. I'm very proud of all these guys," Bernthal said.

David Ayer, who wrote and directed the film, admits he took a "white knuckle" approach when making the film.

"It was a brutal set, let's just say that. I mean these guys did a lot of work together. They trained together. They fought to together. They slept together. They ate together. They really bonded as brothers, so that chemistry on the screen is absolutely real. You bring the skill of the actor to that brotherhood and camaraderie they felt as real people. Nothing can beat that," Ayer said.

Logan Lerman plays the rookie of the bunch - and that wasn't just in the movie.

"I was the new guy every day so I got treated like that but the same time I went through everything that every one of these guys went through. We dedicated our whole year to this one movie, which is rare. We gave up four months in prep and we shot the movie for five months and gave one hundred percent of ourselves to the project and didn't hold back," he said.

Michael Pena confirmed that much of the physical interaction between the cast was real.

"We actually did spar for a month before that and you really get to know somebody when you spar with them. It's just one of those things. But it was a rough shoot for sure. It was very physical. Everybody wanted to do it for real and everybody had the same amount of dedication. They wanted this movie to really make sense and to be as good as it could be," Pena said.

BRAD PITT VIDEO CHATS WITH ASTRONAUT ON ISS

Actor Brad Pitt got a unique opportunity to speak to a NASA astronaut Monday, asking him anything from what life is like in space to what he thought of his upcoming film, the new space movie "Ad Astra."

"Who was more believable?" Pitt asked. "Clooney or Pitt?"

NASA astronaut Nick Hague answered Pitt _ "absolutely" _ getting a big laugh. Pitt's Hollywood pal George Clooney starred in the 2013 space film "Gravity."

"How'd we do?" Pitt also asked Hague.

"I gotta tell you, it was really good" Hague said. "And the depictions, the settings -- all as you can tell -- looked very similar to the type of setting, you know, I've got around me."

The International Space Station crew previewed "Ad Astra" a few weeks ago. The movie opens Friday.

In it, Pitt portrays an astronaut who travels through the solar system to find his father. The film includes actual NASA shots of the moon and Mars. Hague praised the zero-gravity depictions.

In his call, Pitt noted the movie's spaceship was "a bit cleaner" than the station, setting off a big laugh among all on the call.

Pitt and Hague also discussed health and well-being while in space. Hague said his biggest take away from his 200 days on mission, outside of the idea that humans are small, is the importance of international cooperation to make space exploration possible.

"International cooperation is so important," he said. "For me, that is the biggest thing that I've pulled from this mission -- is that idea of cooperation at a global scale, is what's going to propel humanity into the future."

"You get this idea that, you know, I'm not on the earth and I'm not, you know, at the moon but I'm just kind of in the cosmos. And then that perspective really challenges you because now you're looking down at everything that you've ever known -- all of humanity right there -- and you have this deep appreciation for how big the universe really is.

DICAPRIO, PITT, ROBBIE AND TARANTINO PREMIERE 'ONCE UPON A TIME...IN HOLLYWOOD' IN EUROPE

The stars of Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time …. in Hollywood"  hit the red carpet in Berlin Thursday (01AUG.2019) for the film's European premiere.

Writer and director, Quentin Tarantino, joined his A-list cast including Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie on the red carpet at the Sony Centre.

Pitt smiled after he was asked if this is his year to win an Oscar and said, "Oh god, who knows, we're not there yet!"

He gave a longer answer when asked about Quentin Tarantino.  "The name has become a noun, a verb, an adverb, do you know what I mean? Everyone knows what you mean when you say a Tarantino film. Thats no small mark," he said.

The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt as Tinseltown old-timers in a 1969 Los Angeles where old Hollywood is transitioning from studio-driven fare to auteur-driven movies and its brightest stars are fading.

Rick Dalton, played by DiCaprio, is one such star, who, in the face of industry change and his creeping has-been status, finds himself in the throes of an existential crisis.

Pitt plays Cliff Booth - Dalton's longtime stunt double and all-around go-fer, who is casual friends with DiCaprio's character and witness to the star's slow breakdown.

It's the first time DiCaprio and Pitt have made a feature together, though the two co-starred in a 2015 short directed by Martin Scorsese.  

Joining Pitt and DiCaprio at the premiere was Margot Robbie, who stars as real-life actress Sharon Tate.  Asked about her reprisal of "Suicide Squad" character Harley Quinn in the upcoming "Birds of Prey," Robbie said, "Well with Harley you never really know what to expect, it's probably gonna be pretty crazy, like she is, pretty fun, pretty funny, yeah I think the movie really reflects her personality, kind of irrelevant, occasionally violent, very funny, loving.. yeah it's fun."

At the U.S. box office, "Once Upon A Time ... In Hollywood" took $40 million in its opening weekend for Sony, besting the 2009 opening of Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds" by $2 million.

"Once Upon a Time in… Hollywood" is out now in the U.S. and hits U.K. theaters August 14.

FBI SAYS IT'S EVALUATING ABUSE ALLEGATIONS AGAINST BRAD PITT

The FBI is gathering information about an incident involving actor Brad Pitt and his family aboard a private flight last week, the agency confirmed Thursday (22 SEPT. 2016).

Spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said the FBI is still evaluating whether to open an investigation into allegations Pitt was abusive during the flight toward one of his six children with actress Angelina Jolie Pitt, as several media outlets have reported.

The news reports from anonymous sources contend the actor is under investigation by a child welfare agency because of the Sept. 14 airborne incident.

Amara Suarez, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, said the agency could not confirm whether it was investigating Pitt or the well-being of the former couple's children.

A representative for Pitt declined comment Thursday.

Jolie Pitt filed for divorce Monday and her lawyer released a statement the following day saying she came to the decision "for the health of the family." She listed their separation date as Sept. 15, the day after the alleged plane incident, and the actress is seeking sole custody of all six of the children.

A phone message left for Jolie Pitt's attorney Laura Wasser was not returned Thursday.

Koochiching County, Minnesota, Sheriff Perryn Hedlund told The Associated Press on Thursday that Brad Pitt was on a plane that landed at the International Falls, Minnesota, airport near the Canadian border on Sept. 14.

Hedlund said his sheriff's deputies were not called to the airport, and International Falls police were also not called.

"There's no incident whatsoever reported to law enforcement," Hedlund said.

He said he didn't know why the plane landed in International Falls, but said it's not uncommon for hockey players or other celebrities to stop at the airport.

Messages left with the airport's manager were not returned Thursday.

Pitt and Jolie Pitt - known as "Brangelina" - were together for 12 years but only wed in August 2014. They married privately at their French chateau in the Provence hamlet of Correns with their children serving as ring bearers and throwing flower petals. They announced the ceremony days later.

Their six children include 15-year-old Maddox, 12-year-old Pax, 11-year-old Zahara, 10-year-old Shiloh, and 8-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

This is the second marriage for Pitt, 52, who previously wed Jennifer Aniston. It's the third for Jolie Pitt, 41, who was previously married to Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller.

In 2006, they formed the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, to which they funneled many of the millions they made selling personal pictures to celebrity magazines.

In addition to their philanthropy, much of their off-screen public image has been about their role as parents.

Although Jolie Pitt's divorce filing sought sole physical custody of their children, divorce experts say the actors will have to agree to a parenting plan or face a public custody battle in court. Both actors have, in separate statements, said their primary concern was their children and asked for privacy.

I'm predicting within the next 15-to-18 months this couple is toast because I was able to get inside the camp, befriend a lot of their inner-circle and get the real story. The public has only seen them at these photo ops which their publicist's pre-arrange and everything looks peachy keen which is the furthest thing from the truth. There's a lot of tension in the household, a lot of arguing and the fact of the matter is if you look at Brad Pitt today and look at him 4 years ago there is a huge difference in his appearance. The man looks like he's under extreme pressure and tension."

Jennifer Aniston she handled this in a classy manner. She could've lashed out to the media about Angelina Jolie stealing her husband. Instead she dealt with it in a more spiritual manner. And she worked on her pain doing by doing yoga and traveling and hanging out with friends. I think she handled this in a extremely classy manner. I don't think there's any possibility of them ever getting back together."

AUTHOR SAYS BRANGELINA TO BREAK UP

Could Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's days together as a couple be numbered? Author Ian Halperin says so. In fact, he gives the couple "15-to-18 months" to call it quits.

Halperin has released a tell-all, unauthorized biography of the couple's relationship, which he says deconstructs the myth of this larger-than-life celebrity duo.

"There's just been too much myths behind the couple and too many stories over the years without substance and I really wanted to cut through all the gloss and hype and get to the bottom of who Brangelina actually is."

And, who is that exactly? Halperin says they are a couple who were first drawn together by sex.

"With Brad Pitt that was one of the way she (Angelina Jolie) was able to dig her claws into him. She gave him the sex that he never dreamed he'd have," explains Halperin. "She roped him in that way and she developed a family with him."

After going public with their relationship in 2005 and having six kids together, Halperin says Jolie and Pitt will ultimately end their relationship because they're not happy together. Halperin says Pitt's inner-circle is concerned about his well-being and think he's miserable with Jolie.

"If you look at Brad Pitt today and look at him 4 years ago there is a huge difference in his appearance. The man looks like he's under extreme pressure and tension."

"Brangelina: The Untold Story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie" by Ian Halperin is on sale now in book stores in the United States and Canada.

The people have not received the money yet, and that's the fact. Ostensibly it's on it's way but it's not there yet, and people are caught in this limbo, people who want to reclaim their communities are caught in this limbo of not knowing will they receive enough restitution to even rebuild or to get their house to meet Fema standards; will the schools be there, will hospitals be there, will their neighbours be there, are their communities going to be there, so there's a lot of limbo, a pervasive feeling of just of like there's little direction. Except for this will that I talk about, this will, this spirit, and people seem very very determined so it's a positive side at the same time."

PITT LENDS REBUILDING HAND IN NEW ORLEANS

Recent father and Hollywood veteran Brad Pitt lent his celebrity muscle to the rebuilding effort in New Orleans after witnessing first-hand the devastation left by Katrina, almost a year later.

Pitt attended a press conference Friday (14/07) to give an update on a project he is promoting: a competition to choose ecologically sound designs for rebuilding New Orleans neighbourhoods.

The boyfriend of actress turned U.N. goodwill ambassador Angelina Jolie said he was shocked at the scale of the destruction:

"No I was not prepared for the scale, I have to say, we've seen the pictures on television and they're every bit as devastating as they appear but what's more devastating is that you can literally start at one spot in the 9th ward and drive for a couple of hours and you'll see exactly that same devastation and it's a bit shocking, it's a daunting job but we'll start one building at a time and talking to the people in the street there's a great verve and a great spirit to reclaim their homes and to establish their communities again. So by that sheer will alone it will happen."

Global Green USA, a national environmental organisation, is working with Pitt on the design project. Pitt heads a jury of architects, city residents and others who on Friday decided on the top five environmentally friendly designs out of more than 100 entries. The designs were submitted by individuals and architect firms.

Brad Pitt, star of the new space movie "Ad Astra," had a burning question for a real-life astronaut. "Who was more believable? Clooney or Pitt?"

In a call Monday, NASA astronaut Nick Hague answered Pitt — "absolutely" — getting a big laugh. Pitt's Hollywood pal George Clooney starred in the 2013 space film "Gravity."

The International Space Station crew previewed "Ad Astra" a few weeks ago. The movie opens Friday down here.

"How'd we do?" Pitt also asked Hague.

"I gotta tell you, it was really good" Hague said. "And the depictions, the settings -- all as you can tell -- looked very similar to the type of setting, you know, I've got around me."

In the movie, Pitt portrays an astronaut who travels through the solar system to find his father. The film includes actual NASA shots of the moon and Mars.

Hollywood actor Brad Pitt got a unique opportunity to speak to a NASA astronaut on Monday, asking him anything from what life is like in space to what he thought of his upcoming film, the new space movie "Ad Astra".

"Who was more believable?" Pitt asked. "Clooney or Pitt?"

NASA astronaut Nick Hague answered Pitt - "absolutely" - getting a big laugh. Pitt's Hollywood pal George Clooney starred in the 2013 space film "Gravity".

"How'd we do?" Pitt also asked Hague. "I've got to tell you, it was really good" Hague said. "And the depictions, the settings - all as you can tell - looked very similar to the type of setting, you know, I've got around me."

The International Space Station crew previewed "Ad Astra" a few weeks ago. The movie opens on Friday.

In it, Pitt portrays an astronaut who travels through the solar system to find his father. The film includes actual NASA shots of the moon and Mars. Hague praised the zero-gravity depictions.

In his call, Pitt noted the movie's spaceship was "a bit cleaner" than the station, setting off a big laugh among all on the call.

Pitt and Hague also discussed health and well-being while in space. Hague said his biggest take away from his 200 days on mission, outside of the idea that humans are small, is the importance of international cooperation to make space exploration possible.

"International cooperation is so important," he said. "For me, that is the biggest thing that I've pulled from this mission - is that idea of cooperation at a global scale, is what's going to propel humanity into the future."

PITT TO ADOPT JOLIE'S KIDS

Brad Pitt is seeking to become the adoptive father of Angelina Jolie's children, the actor's publicist announced Friday. A legal petition seeking to change the names of the children to Zahara Jolie-Pitt and Maddox Jolie-Pitt was filed Friday in Los Angeles, publicist Cindy Guagenti said in a written statement to The Associated Press.

"We are confirming that Brad Pitt is in the process of becoming the adoptive father of both

children," the statement said. "No further comment is being made."

The couple has been romantically linked since the filming of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith." For months, rumours have been circulating about the extent of Jolie's off-screen relationship with Pitt.

Photos published in the July 11 issue of People show Jolie standing near her Buckinghamshire, England, estate while Pitt rides a dirt bike with Maddox. Other photos show Pitt, Jolie and Maddox at Luton Airport outside London.

Pitt and Jennifer Aniston announced their separation in January, and Aniston filed for divorce in March, citing irreconcilable differences. The divorce became final in October. Pitt, 41, has denied Jolie, 30, was the reason for the split.

AP SOURCE: BRAD PITT CLEARED IN CHILD SERVICES INVESTIGATION

An investigation into whether Brad Pitt was abusive toward his son on a private flight in September says the case has been closed with no finding of abuse by the actor, a source familiar with the inquiry said Wednesday.

The source, who was not authorized to speak publicly, told The Associated Press that the investigation was closed within the past few days.

Multiples sources have said the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services had been looking into allegations Pitt was abusive toward his 15-year-old son on the flight in mid-September. Pitt's wife, Angelina Jolie Pitt, filed for divorce days after the incident, and her attorney said it was "for the health of the family."

A department spokesman said the agency could not confirm it investigated Pitt.

Custody of the actors' six children has been the primary issue in their divorce. Jolie Pitt is seeking sole custody of the children, while Pitt is seeking joint custody.

Pitt has had visitation with his children under terms agreed upon by the former couple. Jolie Pitt's representatives said Monday that an agreement on custody had been reached, although a final agreement will be part of the couple's divorce judgment when it is entered.

California law favors joint custody, although details about custody arrangements are rarely made public in celebrity divorce cases.

Representatives for Pitt and Jolie Pitt did not immediately return messages seeking comment Wednesday.

The actors were married for two years and together for 12 years after becoming close while filming 2005's "Mr. & Mrs. Smith."

STORYLINE

BRAD PITT TALKS NEW FILM AND OBAMA IN BERLIN

Brad Pitt brought Angelina Jolie to Berlin, Germany Monday night (19JAN09) for the European premiere of his new film 'The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button.'

Pitt also took time to reflect on the inauguration of Barack Obama.

"..it reconfirms the idea of America, it is a great day for the world," he said.

Adapted from the classic 1920s story by F. Scott Fitzgerald, 'The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button' tells the story of a man who is born old and ages backwards, getting younger as time moves on.

Benjamin Button takes its hero from the end of World War One to the start of the 21st Century, as he discovers people and places, finds and loses loves, and realises what lasts beyond time.

The film is directed by David Fincher, who also worked with Pitt on 'Fight Club' and 'Se7en' .

Pitt stars as Button, in a cast that includes Cate Blanchett, Tilda Swinton, Taraji P. Henson, Jason Flemyng, Elias Koteas and Julia Ormond.

Most recently, Pitt has been filming director Quentin Tarantino's new movie, 'Inglourious Basterds' (correct spelling).

"There is a few more weeks I just wrapped up I finished this weekend so they have a little more to go," explained Pitt. "It's a good one it's good."

'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' goes on release in Germany on January 29th.

JUDGE REFUSES BRAD PITT'S REQUEST TO SEAL CUSTODY FILINGS

A judge on Wednesday (07 DEC.) rejected Brad Pitt's request to seal details about custody arrangements in his divorce from Angelina Jolie Pitt.

Los Angeles Superior Court Richard J. Burdge Jr. denied Pitt's request in a brief written order that states the filing did not meet the requirements for sealing details at this time. Pitt had sought to seal details of his custody dispute with Jolie Pitt at an emergency hearing, but Burdge declined to hear the petition on an expedited basis.

Pitt's motion came two days after the release of a custody agreement that he and his estranged wife reached in late October. The agreement calls for the actor to have visitation with his children under the guidance of a therapist.

Pitt intends to seek temporary custody orders soon, and his filing states that he wanted those documents sealed to protect the children's privacy. He was also seeking the sealing of any custody-related filings.

"I am extremely concerned that if court records regarding custody are not sealed, information contained therein will cause irreparable damage to our children's privacy rights," Pitt wrote in a sworn declaration filed Wednesday.

Pitt's attorney Gary Fishbein declined comment after the hearing.

Jolie Pitt filed for divorce in September and currently has primary custody of their six children.

The divorce filing came days after a disagreement broke out on private flight ferrying the actors and their children from France to Los Angeles. Pitt was accused of being abusive toward his 15-year-old son during the flight, but investigations by child welfare officials and the FBI were closed with no charges being filed against the actor.

After filing for divorce, Jolie Pitt's attorney said it was done "for the health of the family."

Custody has been the primary issue in the divorce. Jolie Pitt is seeking sole custody of the children, while Pitt is seeking joint custody. A final agreement will be part of the couple's divorce judgment when it is entered.

California law favors joint custody, although details about custody arrangements are rarely made public in celebrity divorce cases.

Jolie Pitt's attorney Laura Wasser said the actress does not oppose sealing details of the pair's custody arrangements, but Pitt's attorneys did not consult with them before filing the motion Wednesday.

Pitt and Jolie were married for two years and together for 12 years after becoming close while filming 2005's "Mr. & Mrs. Smith."

STORYLINE

GLORIOUS ARRIVAL FOR PITT AND TARANTINO IN CANNES

The star rating for this year's Cannes Film Festival was cranked up a notch with the arrival of Brad Pitt at the French event.

The movie star, along with director Quentin Tarantino, signed autographs for fans on Wednesday morning (20 MAY 2009) ahead of the premiere of 'Inglourious Basterds'.

The film itself spins some revisionist history on how World War II ended.

It's an epic saga about a band of Jewish Allied soldiers, led by Pitt, who play a pivotal role in taking down the Third Reich.

The band's exploits culminate in a bloodbath plot to take out top German leaders at the premiere of a Nazi propaganda film in Paris.

'Inglourious Basterds' screened for reporters Wednesday morning with a press conference held shortly afterwards.

Actors Mike Myers and Diane Kruger were also at the photocall.

Pitt and Tarantino will be out for the cameras again on Wednesday as they walk up the steps of the Palais's red carpet for the premiere.

'Inglourious Basterds' is one of 20 films competing for the Palme d'Or - the Cannes Film Festival's top prize.

Angelina Jolie sparkled in a long-sleeved Ellie Saab gown that featured a sheer bodice and a thin leather belt with her accessory for the evening, longtime love Brad Pitt on her arm.

Julia Roberts, nominated for best supporting actress for "August: Osage County", was peplum perfection in a black Givenchy gown with lace inserts.

Meantime Jennifer Garner glittered from head to toe in silver, in a tulle tiered fringe gown made of micro bugle and bead embroidery by Oscar de la Renta.

Anna Hathaway, who recently left longtime stylist Rachel Zoe, is going for a more edgy look these days.

She chose a Gucci halter dress complete with a gem-covered bust, sleek black skirt with a slit.

ANGELINA JOLIE PITT WANTS DIVORCE FINALIZED BY YEAR'S END

Angelina Jolie Pitt says she wants her divorce from Brad Pitt finalized before the end of the year.

The declarations came in a request for a case-management hearing filed Tuesday (7 AUGUST) by Jolie Pitt's attorneys in Los Angeles Superior Court.

The document says her attorneys will work with Pitt's lawyers to ensure the actors are single again in 2018.

The court filing contends Pitt "has paid no meaningful child support" since the couple's separation. It says he has failed to live up to their informal financial arrangements, and she'll seek a court order to get retroactive payments from him.

Pitt's attorney Lance Spiegel did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Jolie Pitt filed for divorce nearly two years ago and currently has primary custody of their six children.
