Pitt's desert-based drama 'Babel' and the critically acclaimed 'Little
Children', which stars Winslet, received multiple gongs at the ceremony,
which is widely considered to be a good indicator for the upcoming Oscar
nominations.

The 'Babel' cast took home the Ensemble Performance Award.
Pitt said about the movie: "I love the undercurrent of this film, and that
is the inability, sometimes, to understand where the other side is coming
from."

Pitt also said that his family is temporarily relocating to New Orleans for the next several months to film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.

"I do like it there," Pitt said. "It's one of our most unique cities and it certainly needs some help right now. I know it will do fine, and the people are just fantastic."

Jolie and the children are in Los Angeles while Pitt is in Palm Springs with Cate Blanchett for the film festival's awards gala.
