Marion Cotillard

Hmm, I personally disagree that she is an incredible actress in her second language. I think she should stick to French films.

 

[Not Plain Jane]

I thought she was better towards the end of the "Actress Round Table" but she definitely had some problems answering questions at first - couldn't stay focused on the question asked and couldn't seem to pin down what she wanted to say. But in her last two responses - the bad director experience, and who/what she'd like to play - she seemed much more confident and spoke more effectively. In fact her answer about wanting to play a monster was one of the best to that question, and her story about working with a bad director was interesting. Personally I find her to be a good actress, but one who was even transcendent in La Vie En Rose - she was simply stunning in that role! Fully deserving of her Oscar and all the other accolades.

That Craig Ferguson interview above is a little off in terms of comedic timing but if ANYONE can make a non-English native speaker feel comfortable and kill the awkward kinks, it's Craig Ferguson, as evidenced by him keeping on with her!

i think she is beautiful...i will see any movie she is in! she can't be that dumb when she is such an incredible actress in her 2nd language. i'm sorry but her movie roles are always high brow. if she was dumb she'd be playing one dimensional characters....she certainly has not got where she is by being anything other than intelligent. can i remind you that there are millions of pretty women in the world that try to get into films/acting

Just answering very quickly and then stop being off topic.
1. I said she often looks dumb, I never said she actually is dumb ; i don't know her.
2. Like Scrantonicity said, you don't need to be clever to be a good actor. I guess you need to be instinctive, or know about human nature, or God knows what. But you don't need to be smart or educated to be a good actor.
3. She's far from being good in her English-speaking movies. She was terrible in Inception and The Dark Knight Rises, and despite the fact that she was radiant in Midnight in Paris, she was still terrible. She can also be terrible in French-speaking movies and then be astonishing in La Vie en Rose or Rust and Bones. Her entire carrier is full of hits and misses.
4. Those millions of pretty girls who want to get into acting might lack talent or luck (because everybody agrees to say that success largely relies on luck).

i dunno if i would describe her as dumb but maybe a little flighty. but maybe marion isn't the communicative type or that comfortable with interviews? many people aren't exactly talkers as you know but doesn't mean they aren't articulate and smart. to me she sounds like a typical shy person....as per NPJ's quote....many aren't so confident with certain discussions but can speak quite confidently with others not to mention her somewhat awkward demeanour.

btw,i thought she was very funny with craig last night and she looked great in that bouchra dress....i had no idea it was her only that it seemed familiar in its silhouette.

[Melly5525]

I like the dress on her, its elegant and chic, she looks beautiful

she was on Chelsea Lately last night, and I loved her. She is so chill and laid back but completely sexy at the same time. Her legs are great too!

^ All i'm noticing is poor Amy Adams in the background!

Loved her on Chelsea Lately - the bit about Will Ferrell!
It was quite nice to see her in such a different situation interview-wise. Chelsea is so blunt and hilarious.
