Angelina Jolie recently sat down for an interview with TV Week magazine, where she admitted to writing handwritten letters to fiancé Brad Pitt, while they were both filming their respective movies at opposite ends of the globe.

The 39-year-old "Unbroken" director shared, "He was supporting from a distance. It was quite romantic in a way."

Jolie and Pitt's sweet gesture of love took place while Jolie was filming "Unbroken" in Australia and 50-year-old Pitt was filming "Fury" in London, according to US Weekly.

"We decided to be of that time when we could imagine he was in the European theater and I was in the Pacific theater. We wrote handwritten letters to each other that were very connecting for us, thinking of the people that were separated for months, if not years at a time back then."

Back in 2013, Jolie and her six children relocated Australia to film Laura Hillenbrand's best-selling novel "Unbroken," the same publication confirmed.

The film is based on the life Olympian and World War II POW Louis Zamperini, who Jolie had a chance to meet just a few months before he passed away, TV Week Logie Awards reported.

Jolie recalled the first time she met up with the "hero" and said, "I brought him the film on my laptop in the hospital. It was amazing seeing someone at the end of their life watching their life unfold again, at the same time their body was shutting down."

She added, "He wanted me to make the movie to show something hopeful about the strength of the human spirit that can pull us through. He reminded me to have my surgery in the year that I did and he reminded me to appreciate every day of my life."

"Unbroken" is set to be released on December 25, IBTimes reported.
