Angie's the hardest working actress in Hollywood!

Angelina Jolie looked prim and proper for an appearance on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart in NYC today, and the Oscar winner was in a great mood as she signed autographs for fans on her way inside the studio. She's got a lot to smile about these days! Not only did she just marry the sexiest man in the world, but she's garnering Oscar buzz for her latest directorial effort Unbroken.

Brad Pitt's lady love's upcoming flick tells the story of Louie Zamperini, a bombardier in the Pacific theater who survived a plane crash and nearly two months stranded at sea before he was captured by the Japanese and held in a P.O.W. camp for years. Zamperini passed away in July, but the brunette beauty had a chance to show him the finished product before he died:

    "Louie was a part of the journey from the beginning. We’d call him sometimes and say 'Does the raft look right,' or, 'Did you or did you not have a screwdriver?' So he was always aware of it. But I hadn’t shown him the film. I was saving it.

    But I found out that he’d gone into the hospital, so I had it downloaded on my laptop and I drove to the hospital and held it over him, like this, so he could see it. And it’s hard to explain. How do you explain that moment? It wasn’t a judgment on a film and how well-acted or well-crafted it was. It was a man watching his life. It was a man at the end of his life, his extraordinary life—this mountain of a man, with his physical strength, at 97 years old . . .

    I had to help him a glass of water, his legs were very, very thin—watching himself run and win in the Olympics, watching his brother, watching his mother make gnocchi, watching all that he accomplished, all that he survived. And because he was a man of such strong faith, I think he was preparing himself, I know he was, preparing himself to die. And so he was also preparing himself to see his mother, and Phil, and Mac, and everybody. So it was hard to explain what it was. It was watching somebody relive all their experiences and prepare for that great, powerful, extraordinary, inspiring, long life to end."
