NBC's Tom Brokaw Makes Other Networks Jealous By Scoring a Lengthy Interview with Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie has been working hard to promote her new film Unbroken, which is the story of Louis Zamperini's life from Olympic long-distance runner to World War II prisoner of war. She has worked closely with NBC and let it into her tight circle as it works on a documentary about Zamperini and how she has brought his story to the big screen.

Tom Brokaw has spent quite a bit of time with Jolie in recent months, and this morning, Nov. 25, on Today we caught a glimpse of his exclusive sit-down interview with her.

Aside from this huge project, Jolie has had a lot of other things going on in her life, including her recent marriage to Brad Pitt. Brokaw took the time to ask Jolie about their new status as husband and wife after already spending a decade together.

Jolie explained: "It did change, in just a feeling of that security and comfort that we always had but recommitting after 10 years of being together. We were fortunate enough to be in that unusual situation where [we] got married with our children, and they were part of the ceremony and they wrote some of the vows. So it was all of us agreeing to be together and to just commit to this life together — not because we had to, not because anything was missing in our lives — but because we were absolutely sure.

"We felt that much of a family and it was that moment. It was really lovely. It was a lovely day ... I think we have more moments where I'll say, 'I'm going to be a better wife. I'm going to cook.' And he says, 'Oh, honey. Just know what you're good at. Know what you're not.' But I do this, 'No, no, no! I'm gonna get this wife thing down.' But he knows my limitations and where I'm a good wife and a good mom."

This comes on the heels of yesterday's story about the couple reportedly fighting on their balcony in Sydney, Australia, while promoting Unbroken, according to the International Business Times.

Do you think Pitt and Jolie are on solid footing, as she seems to convey? Was that little spat between them simply nothing in the grand scheme of things?
