Angelina Jolie has called longterm partner Brad Pitt a "wonderful father".
Speaking to The AP, the Salt star said that Pitt often brought their children to the movie's set to visit their mother.
"He was just a wonderful father," Jolie commented.
She added of the children's visits to the set: "They played with fake blood, and they found mummy very strange in her different hair."
The star credited Pitt with helping to keep their large family happy.
"Brad is the word that makes it possible," she said.
The Hollywood couple recently accepted undisclosed damages over a privacy claim against a UK tabloid that reported that they were splitting up.
