Marion Cotillard is an actress I like very much. She is extraordinary, in the sense that she really becomes the character she plays. She communicates emotion like no other.
Marion Cotillard is a French actress born on September 30th 1975 in Paris. Her mother, Niseema Theillaud, is a stage actress, and her father, Jean-Claude Cotillard, is a stage actor, director and director of the school of dramatic art of the City of Paris.
It is the movie Taxi by Luc Besson which revealed her to the general public and gave her a first César prize.
The big turn of her career came in February 2007 with La Môme. Marion gave an extraordinary performance as Edith Piaf. The movie was popular in France but also in the rest of the world, in particular in the United States.
Discreet, beautiful, Parisian, fashionable, intelligent, Marion Cotillard was welcomed with open arms in Hollywood. Dior made her its muse.
She has starred with Johnny Depp in the thriller Public Enemies by Michael Mann. “I delved into the story of Chicago in the 30s and the creation of the FBI. Michael Mann made me meet prostitutes who explained to me how to spot a "good prey", but also prisoners’ wives told me about the long wait for their men to be freed.”
Marion also showed her passion for the cinema in Nine, the adaptation of a Broadway show, also starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Penelope Cruz and Nicole Kidman, in which she plays Luisa.
She also played in a love story with Guillaume Canet: The Last Flight, by Karim Dridi.
In Les petits mouchoirs, Guillaume Canet imagined her as a lively if unstable girl trying to find her place.
All her movies have been successful, which proves that Marion Cotillard is more than a “flash in the pan”. She is a serious, hardworking, talented actress.
