Angelina Jolie heads the new drama "Couture". Reviewers call the film disjointed, yet they single out Jolie’s work as strong. Audiences and trade press notice her lead. The picture’s look draws praise; its story feels uneven.
Brad Pitt is still fighting a court case with Jolie over their French winery. The clash is about who owns what and how profits are split. A Russian‑born billionaire re‑appears in the case following one judge’s ruling. Sources say Pitt was angry with Jolie over how she dealt with one recent family choice on the children’s schooling.
