She looked fantastic at Jovovich-Hawk! She always wears the most beautiful coats, I wonder where she gets them.

!I found this at a myspace, it is a description of the movie sisters and some little interview with the directors and lou's also telling something about how she got the part of Angelique / Annabelle.
This is the part with/about Lou:
...At the end of the first week in February, Pressman announced that Anna Mouglalis, a new international French-Italian movie star whose latest film, ROMANZO CRIMINALE ("Crime Novel") had become a big hit in Europe, would replace Argento. But only days before SISTERS was to start shooting, Mouglalis' representatives sent word that the actress was "suffering terrible exhaustion" and would be unable to do the movie.
"It was a Thursday," recalls producer Cathy Gesualdo. "We were on our final location scouts. We were to start shooting on Monday. We pretended that everything was fine, we continued our scouts, but we were glued to our cell phones with casting people."
The part ultimately went to Lou Doillon, a French actress and Chanel model who shared representation with Mouglalis and happened to be visiting Los Angeles.
"I was in LA for odd reasons, squatting from one house to another," Doillon told a visitor as she was in Vancouver making SISTERS. "I was not supposed to be there at all, and would not have been, but a friend had cashed in some airline miles to get me there. Then I got this weird phone call to meet [Pressman Films'] Alessandro Camon about a role in a movie. I remember meeting a stressed out man in an office in Hollywood. This was on a Thursday afternoon.
"'When does the movie start shooting?' I asked.
"'Monday,' he said.
"'What is the part?'
"'It's kind of the lead -- and she's kind of a twin,' he said.
"I had to laugh – it was the worst thing ever heard," recalls Doillon, "and the best! I called Doug that Friday night. We had this strange, hour-long phone call trying to sort out who we were and what we would do."
Producer Cathy Gesualdo remembers loading the location trucks as she made Doillon's deal. "I'd never done anything like that," she says today.
Recalls Buck, who did not meet Doillon in person before she arrived in Vancouver: "I respected Alessandro's artistic integrity and I trusted his instincts about Lou, but I also had no other choice."
Today, says Buck, "Lou is perfect. She's like a dream – she was easy to work with, she is fascinating to look at and she transforms in front of the camera. It was amazing: even though she had only the weekend to prepare, she utterly and thoroughly knew her character."
As if to prove Buck's point, on the set Doillon offers a visitor this assessment of Angelique:
"You could look at the character as if she were about just the stages of a woman – of being a woman who's always been under the control of something or someone. To understand Angelique, you must know that she's spent her whole life either being a circus freak or being a "doctor freak," which is the same thing: being studied by people in an unhealthy way."
"She's always been an object," echoes John Freitas, "for so many people on so many different levels. How does that affect her character? It's goes to how difficult it must be for her to open up to other characters and really let them in."
Doillon continues, "After some time living in that [unhealthy] way, I think -- and I've seen this in documentaries – the attention that people like Angelique get from being different – it becomes like an addiction, where the person becomes an attention seeker, where everything has to revolve around that person. And so she has this kind of weird sexuality in a way where being this child, pretending to be this kind of innocent foreigner – it helps that she's French and from another part of the world – pretending that that she doesn't understand what's going on around her – but to what extent we're not sure."
Freitas contrasts Doillon's Angelique with Sevigny's Grace Collier, who "is, I think, a very strong yet somewhat fragmented character. You get a sense of her trying both to deal with her past which is always around her while also trying to right these wrongs. To some degree of course it's become obsessional for her, which leads her down this path of her trying to prove herself."
"I love Chloë," says Buck. "I loved her decisions. A courageous actress goes on instinct, not celebrity, and that's Chloë. I realized recently how much this film really is about her, really about those two characters. After shooting I really sensed the power of those two characters running through the film. A particular scene is either about Grace, or it's about Lou, but the whole movie is truly always about them.
Sevigny's take on her character is that she's "a journalist struggling to write the kinds of pieces that she wants to write, but her editors are always giving her these fluff pieces instead. She's recently lost her mother and has no relationship with her father. She's become obsessed with Lacan and the idea that he's experimented on children. She trusts no one in the medical field because her mother died of a terminal illness. In a sense, her obsession with Lacan is a way to escape her reality, so she focuses all of her energy on exposing this one guy."
Sevigny continues, "Another reason I was attracted to the movie is that it had two female leads, and the movie is ultimately about them finding more power within their relationship to each other and becoming stronger when they find each other."
Doillon agrees. "There's a scene in the movie, after the murder, where I think for the first time Angelique and Grace really see each other. They are talking in a park and they're actually listening to each other and looking at each other, which is something enormous for both of them. I think they haven't been used to that. They've both become used to people kind of hushing them down. It's like Angelique's relationship with Lacan: he agrees to give her own apartment, but then he puts bloody video cameras all over it. No one tends to listen to these girls." ...

^^ Thanks for that article Luca*, the film crew were cutting it fine when they finally offered Lou the role!
But I'm glad she's doing it because now two of my favourite girls are gonna be on screen together: Doillon and Sevigny!
