Angelina Jolie is directing as well as acting in "By the Sea," which also stars her husband Brad Pitt. The movie, which is about an "unhappy couple," reportedly has one sex scene. The actress has said that it was not difficult to direct the sex scene, as she and her husband Pitt were both part of this love making scene.

Jolie told MTV News that directing Pitt in the sex scene was easy, as her husband just knows what to do. "I was the other person in the love scene, so it wasn't that hard," she said, adding, "He knows what I need. He's always known." The two got married earlier this year in August in a surprise wedding ceremony in the South of France. Jolie and Pitt are parents to six kids.

"By the Sea" also features heavy fighting scenes. According to Daily Star UK, Jolie has admitted that they have to face "intense emotional dramas" and "huge amounts of pressures" during the shooting of the movie. This is the first time that the couple is working together in a movie after they starred in "Mr and Mrs. Smith" back in 2005. "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" is the film that brought them together. Pitt was previously married to Jennifer Aniston.

The new film is set in 1970s France and Pitt and Jolie play a couple whose relationship is falling apart. "There's really heavy fighting in it so I think sometimes the crew felt like, 'Mum and dad are having a fight"," the stunning actress said during an interview with the New York Daily News.

The actress also said that the heavy drama brought the couple closer. Daily Star has quoted Jolie as saying to New York Daily News, "Sharing something in a deep artistic way I think is necessary for artistic couples."
