Sure, but I remember that Awards Season as if it was yesterday. Julie Christie won Globe, SAG, NBR and Critics Choice, she was the absolute front runner to win. I cried when Marion won the Oscar!
Because at the time Julie Christie was the frontrunner, but I think that was mainly due to her being a legend having a comeback performance. She swept the precursors. Ultimately, the right performance won and Julie was happy for her.
I remember that when I saw La Vie en Rose I couldn't believe the excellent performance of Marion Cotillard and told everyone that she deserved the Oscar for best performance. Marion is in my humble opinion the BEST actress in cinema right now.
Earth - it's funny I walked out on that movie halfway because it was just too dark (and I like dark!) but I thought the directing was horrible like just dark dark dark dark dark/no contrast/no lightness for juxtaposition/no letting up at all so I left - but I remember thinking that was the best acting I've ever seen by her.
Best reaction to winning an award ever. Even though her performance towered over those of her fellow nominees, she did not expect to win, and if she hadn't, the BAFTAs would have no credibility. The audience reaction said it all.
Actually Baftas was the only award body among the major award shows to give her Best Actress prior to her Oscar win because Julie Christie was winning everything else so they did a really good job recognising her and pushing her forward chances to win. Of course she also received a Golden Globes for Comedy/Musical but that was a genre category and only Ellen Page was the Oscar Contender amongst the nominees
For me this was one of the best performances I have ever seen by an actress. Up there with Jodie Foster for the silence of the lambs, Charlize Theron for Monster, Susan Sarandon for Dead Man Walking and Hilary Swank for Million Dollar Baby. It was an incredible year for nominees this year but they got it right with the winner.
Hilary Swank: right actress, wrong role. Swank's performance in 'Million Dollar Baby' was good; but not great. She was truly _great_ in 'Boys Don't Cry', for which she won her first Academy award (fully deserved). The actress who _should_ have won the Academy award the year Swank won her second (for the bafflingly overrated 'Million Dollar Baby') was Imelda Staunton, for her utterly compelling performance in 'Vera Drake'.
***** I see. I did misunderstand you, so I apologise for that. But as subjective as these things always are, I wouldn't have Natalie Portman so high on the list. She's a decent actress but I don't think her perfromance in 'Swan' tops Streep's in "The Iron Lady" or Theron's in 'Monster' .
@@VoxDeiUniversity Meryl Streep in Sophie's Choice is a cliche answer. Marion as Edith Piaf was better than that. Charlize Theron in Monster was better than that. Liv Ullman in Face to Face was much better than that.
She gave one of the best performances of that decade in Two Days, One Night. It was so realistic. That nomination was a surprise one too. She was amazing in Rust and Bone too. One of the best actresses working.
She is so good that the movies that got her Oscar nominations are in French. I mean it’s not often the role of the nominees speak other languages but English. I got to know so many great French movies because of her.
it will be the only foreign language performance that is universally acclaimed by film critics , film historians and film audience who even are alien to the language and in this case with this performance it's righteous to say Marion Cotillard didn't win the BAFTA , BAFTA wins her
Marion deserves each and every Best Actress awards that exists. She is one of the best actresses I have ever seen (after Helen Mirren and Ellen Burstyn) Keira Knightley ugh as usual she is so irritating and undeserving. She's always playing the same character again and again and again.
Marion Cotillard deserved the BAFTA and the Oscar so much as long as her performance was simply mesmerizing .... Elle a présénté le rôle de Mme Piaf avec une générosité absolue .... Bravo Marion en España todo el mundo celebró tus premios
I thought they all gave outstanding performances. Julianne Moore should have won years ago so her Oscar win was a compensation prize. The Oscars like to play catch up when they overlook great actors like Julianne Moore
and she's french ! everyone in France was crazy when she won the Oscar and all these awards. On t'aime Marion , tu mérites vraiment d'avoir gagner tous ses prix , ta prestation était remarquable !
This performance was definitely something, but I have to acknowledge that the scene from Elizabeth that they played was also so stunning! Oh Cate Blanchett! She just upped her game by cheering Marion on at the Oscars! Oh, these two women!
If anyone was alive in the days Edith Piaf was, - and alas we are getting fewer and fewer who remember her so tragic life. That performance was uncanny, - it could have been Edith it was so brilliantly and emotionally acted, - the joy, the pain, the sorrow, the heartbreak, and her tragic end were all their. Marion deserved to win every award going, - it is very hard to play the life of someone who is a 'National Icon' especially when people remember that person and can compare them to your performance.
Cristina Sousa Anyone is entitled to wear everything, not just French. ;) But yes I like her anyway, it's better than always wearing what other pple are wearing.
littlemissdimples88 I said that because I think of France as the world fashion capital, so all the trends are allowed. But of course, everyone is entitled to wear whatever they want to. And yes, it's boring (at least for me) when all the people wear the same outfits, like the same colours... This is pretty common in northern european countries (England, Belgium, Switzerland...) unlike latin european countries (Portugal, Spain, Italy) where each person has their unique style (not very elegant but unique according to their personality).
Sorry but Marion blew away the competition in that category, and that is saying something with the likes of Blanchett. I was mesmerized by Marion. Once in a while a foreign film actress/actor performance transcends English films and demands attention, this was one of those performances.
This was shocking at the time because Julie Christie was not only the frontrunner that year but Julie Christie is a BRITISH acting legend and the French actress won and deservingly so! Marion as Edith Piaf and Charlize Theron as Aileen Wuornos my favorite transformative actress performances.
Las cinco estan maravillosas, y creo que fue un año dificil para decidir cual era la mejor, pero Marion Cotillard, es sencillamente perfecta. Que merecido BAFTA, y OSCAR, para la mejor. Todavia no puedo creer como una mujer puede estar en otra persona que nunca vio, ni le hablo, interpretarla tan perfectamente. Eres unica, y no dejo de manifestar mi admiracion y adoracion por EDITH.
Made me cry her winning that, so I was almost prepared for the Oscars. Look at the quality of her clip compared to the others and the cheers she got. Julie Christie was also great and the solid fave, but everyone knew that if Marion never got this Oscar then they'd never give it to any non-English language performance. Truly historical and ranks up there with Theron in Monster and Winslet in Et. Sunshine, probably the best female performance of the decade and one of the most deserving wins ever.
I think Cate Blanchett deserved this award... I was amazed by her performance in "The Golden Age"!! Even if Marion did a great job, of course... But I think everybody did a lot of noise around this movie (it's a French expression: does it exist in English???), and I'm not ashamed of saying that I was dissapointed by it (it's apart from the actors ' performances).
Cotillard is an actress who (as a unique and gifted woman) pulls on the heart strings with her emotions, as well as having the gift of being a mesmerizing and divine image. For those who think Knightly or Paige or Christe should've won, please watch "La Vie En Rose" if you cannot cry or feel the sorrow and joy through her magnificent voice (Piaf's) and acting (Cotillard) of Edith Piaf's life then something is clearly wrong with you all.
I'm English and I speak both French and Spanish, and must commend your grasp of the language. Forget the Americans, the world is subject to their ignorance everyday as it is. Just leave them to it - it's the only thing they're good at.
Her performance in the film is simply astonishing. Probably the greatest real character portrayal Ive ever seen. Fortunately I am fluent in French so I can appreciate it fully, but for her to win the BAFTA, I guess the sheer power must come across equally well even with subtitles. Brilliant !
Marion Cotillard's performance was not acting n 'La Vie en Rose she was living the life of Edith Piaf. It shows her total commiment and dedication to the role that is surely lacking in a lot of moviess currently doing the rounds.
I AM SO HAPPY!!!! She is so incredibly deserving. And I love the fact that everyone cheered for her, that's so wonderful. Even Julie Christie, her primary competition, was genuinely ecstatic for her. So gracious was her speech, too. I love how sincere her shock and amazement was. That kind of earnesty is half the reason for her tremendous applause. Ahhhhhhhh, so excited at the possibilities now...^_^!
it's great that the movie industry still has some very talented actresses and actors. Marion Cotillard is a great example. one of the best actresses of her generation, in my opinion.
This performance was so spot on and awe-inspiring. All award season critics kept saying Julie Christie, Julie Christie, Julie Christie. But I knew people would come to their senses, realize, and award what was truly the best performance.
How about you do some research and get your facts straight before you blast somebody for their opinions? The interview she gave makes it abundantly plain that she was merely giving an EXAMPLE of the kind of conspiracy theories out there on the 'net, which she enjoys because they make for fascinating viewing (even if the ideas are insane). She did say she doesn't believe everything the government tells her - a healthy attitude, seeing as you unquestionably believe, of all things, The Daily Mail.
Marion is great and totally deserves all the accolades shes been getting....she embodied Edith Piaf perfectly......btw the guy sitting next to her is her boyfriend Guillaume Canet also an actor and director...beatiful couple!!!!
wow wow wow everybody knows what a such great love there is between british and french (remember napoleon, de gaulle lol) so it's incredible that a french actress (in a french language and in a french movie) win above christie an icone in britain. So British, you can be proud that the British Film Academy showed no favouritism to British actresses => only choice about the performance. I hope oscar academy members have seen the movie and will vote for the acting too
Loved it-but I still loved the dress which she wore at The 2008 Oscar. And her hair then was much better. Hope Marion and Daniel Day Lewis does EXCELLENT in NINE. Who'd dream THEY would star in the same movie together-a musical.
I am very pleased that the BEST ACTRESS won the BAFTA well deserved for the most moving performance in a fim and she DESERVES AN OSCAR as well...well done!!! Academy for choosing THE BEST..
She probably doesn't see herself as we do........as a goddess!!!!!!!!!!! Her performance kept me locked in my room for an entire weekend, watching and rewatching every scene!!!!!!!!!!
No conocía quien era la extraordinaria interprete de la sublime Edith Piaf!!! Hasta que busque o formarmacion y encontré está jovencita maravillosa e increíblemente talentosisima. Francia le debe está impronta en nuestros corazones luego de ver esta impresionante interpretación a Marion Cotillard de la querida y célebre EDITH PIAF. Graciassss❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
bé encore heureux que l'on est des talents lol C'est d e la France dont tu parles là je el rapelle pas de complexe à avoir donc !! on a bien plus de talents en tout que beaucoup de pays... pour rester modeste ^^
It is truly american to reward " great performances" as Charlize Theron in Monster or others before. As an actress in more classic films, she's quite more classic to unappealing. But she's shaped to pushed to the limit of an interpretation and that's a wicked idea to make her play strong characters. Her looks and physical appearance makes the rest...according to what the perfect french woman might remain to the american eye. What became of Deb Winger?
She definitely deserves this and the other awards she got, she is an amazing actress in that film. But you know, I would have at least thought she would say something about Edith Piaf in her speeches, but I've been watching her acceptance speeches on UA-cam today and she doesn't mention her once, which is a bit disappointing. The film was a tribute to Edith Piaf, whose voice « est comme l'âme de Paris » but I suppose....
@dDna0 true, English is a wonderful language but French, Italian and so many others are so elegant... seriously, I heard a song in English and it was BLAND then I heard the original Italian and I loved it... there's something in the other languages that English pales to when compared. That's the beauty of multilingual world. I get so bored with hearing/ reading and speaking English only all the time...
@closer84e obviously, it never worked well in the first place... I was just doing it to be annoying to those who don't know French/ think it's stupid language ;) I used to know some French, until I moved here and then no one spoke it correctly therefore (just like music, if you don't practice) I kind of lost it though I might be able to pick it up again if I found the right ppl parlez vous francais beaucoup?
For those of you who are talking crap about her English: SHUT UP! Very few Americans speak a second language as well as she does, so try speaking another language fluently without mistakes... impossible? well then giver her a break. A friend of mine speaks 5 languages and she has an accent but she learned and became fluent in English as a 5th language in 3 years. (Speaking of English watch "A Good Year")
@Freez57fr I do not think that it is too important for a country to have their own language, after all, every language is in one way or another a combination of another language... such as latin. However, I do agree with the fact that Americans(Including myself) need to step up our game and need to enforce a better foreign language education system, starting in the elementary level.Provided with that, one should not generalize an entire country for what they have solely been exposed to.
Knightley was excellent in Atonement, but her screen time was awfully short compared to her competitors. I felt her nomination was more a "sorry about ignoring you for Pride & Prejudice 2 years ago" than about her performance. Still a good perf, though it felt like it should've been supporting (the film was about Briony after all...)
when it comes to a movie, language is not an issue... english is a bastard language, it is a mungrel language that has been developed on the back of many different languages. Anyone who attempts to speak a foriegn language should be applauded, not criticised, no matter how poor or great the attempt is.
je n'ai jamais et ne suis jamais inquiet à ce propos de nos talents des fois que tu n'es pas compris mon message précédent t'inquiètes donc pas donc ^^ ;-)
its so weird how cate blanchett got a nomination in the oscars on the second movie of elizabeth, even though on rotten tomatoes (a critics site) gave it 32%, maybe it was her performance that got her there, its kinda the same thing with Nine, cause it got 37%, I dinno
According to the New York Times never a person immersed in other person soul and heart as Marion did with Edith Piaf.
Never. Ever.
caravaggio31 she was incredible, it was a wonderful preformamce
Jim Carey
Charlize Theron was amazingly as Aileen on Monster, too.
@@alexvilla43 Marion dar best
hum, I'm pretty immersed with myself, it's getting hard to believe that somebody else does.
how can anyone, including herself be surprised - one of the best acting of all time in that movie
It's bc she's foreign.
Sure, but I remember that Awards Season as if it was yesterday. Julie Christie won Globe, SAG, NBR and Critics Choice, she was the absolute front runner to win. I cried when Marion won the Oscar!
For sure an amazing performance. She made history
Because at the time Julie Christie was the frontrunner, but I think that was mainly due to her being a legend having a comeback performance. She swept the precursors. Ultimately, the right performance won and Julie was happy for her.

Wow, even people extremely talented like Marion Cotillard get nervous when it comes to giving a speech

Poor Cate Blanchett missing out on the award again... but she was up against a real powerful performance and Marion deserved it.
She deserved it.
Look at her acting as if she didn't give the best performance of all time
She was genuinely shocked because she wasn't the frontrunner
That Juno scene with the soupy sales comment always cracked me up.
If anyone was alive in the days Edith Piaf was, - and alas we are getting fewer and fewer who remember her so tragic life.

She disappeared into the role, like Daniel Day Lewis disappears into his.
Total respect. Enorme performance dans le film "La Môme". C'est on ne peut plus mérité. Mille bravos.
FANTASTIC PERFORMANCE. WELL DESERVED
Ellen Page was good in Juno, although she seemed a little too much. I've seen Keira's movies. I just don't feel her.
This movie is sensational. Her acting blew my damn mind, she won this award by a landslide in my book. :)
Cotillard is an actress who (as a unique and gifted woman) pulls on the heart strings with her emotions, as well as having the gift of being a mesmerizing and divine image. For those who think Knightly or Paige or Christe should've won, please watch "La Vie En Rose" if you cannot cry or feel the sorrow and joy through her magnificent voice (Piaf's) and acting (Cotillard) of Edith Piaf's life then something is clearly wrong with you all.
She also won the Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy, as well as a slew of other well-deserved awards.
Cate, Julie and Marion were the three best... Ellen, sorry she needs more experience. Keira? Forget her
She is French, what is wrong with her accent? I would like to hear how you'd sound speaking French...
I love her. belleza pura.
Amazing.
1:41 lovely her reaction 😚
Such a good year for acting! Keira, Marion, Cate... so many good films
I hate that she was snubbed for an oscar in 2013....they gave the nomination to Quevenzhane Wallis instead.

I am surprise that Sag awards in that year in 2008 did not make marion as a winner....instead julie christy won... Thats a big mistake...

Wow what a category of multifaceted actresses! 😮
i love the fact that everyone was genuinely happy for her in the audience, same as at the oscars!
She's the best!! By the way what is the background music playing while she's walking on stage?
I could be wrong, but I think the song is "Pull My Hair" by Bright Eyes.

wow wow wow
everybody knows what a such great love there is between british and french (remember napoleon, de gaulle lol)
so it's incredible that a french actress (in a french language and in a french movie) win above christie an icone in britain.
So British, you can be proud that the British Film Academy showed no favouritism to British actresses => only choice about the performance. I hope oscar academy members have seen the movie and will vote for the acting too
Nope...which makes Cotillard's BAFTA win all the more sweeter!
@Tyanes17 I recommend googling "Gaspard Ulliel." Hottest French man my eyes have ever laid on, imo.
Loved it-but I still loved the dress which she wore at The 2008 Oscar.
And her hair then was much better.
Hope Marion and Daniel Day Lewis
does EXCELLENT in NINE.
Who'd dream THEY would star in the same movie together-a musical.
She Made me cry...so humble and genuine...100% deserved award
Marion is the epitome of beautiful & cute. Such a breath of lfie!
When i watched Marion in the film back in 2007. I knew right away that she would win the Oscar
I am very pleased that the BEST ACTRESS won the BAFTA well deserved for the most moving performance in a fim and she DESERVES AN OSCAR as well...well done!!! Academy for choosing THE BEST..
She probably doesn't see herself as we do........as a goddess!!!!!!!!!!!
Her performance kept me locked in my room for an entire weekend, watching and rewatching every scene!!!!!!!!!!

I was just doing it to be annoying to those who don't know French/ think it's stupid language ;) I used to know some French, until I moved here and then no one spoke it correctly therefore (just like music, if you don't practice) I kind of lost it though I might be able to pick it up again if I found the right ppl parlez vous francais beaucoup?
For those of you who are talking crap about her English: SHUT UP! Very few Americans speak a second language as well as she does, so try speaking another language fluently without mistakes... impossible? well then giver her a break. A friend of mine speaks 5 languages and she has an accent but she learned and became fluent in English as a 5th language in 3 years. (Speaking of English watch "A Good Year")
@Freez57fr I do not think that it is too important for a country to have their own language, after all, every language is in one way or another a combination of another language... such as latin. However, I do agree with the fact that Americans(Including myself) need to step up our game and need to enforce a better foreign language education system, starting in the elementary level.Provided with that, one should not generalize an entire country for what they have solely been exposed to.
Knightley was excellent in Atonement, but her screen time was awfully short compared to her competitors. I felt her nomination was more a "sorry about ignoring you for Pride & Prejudice 2 years ago" than about her performance. Still a good perf, though it felt like it should've been supporting (the film was about Briony after all...)
when it comes to a movie, language is not an issue...
english is a bastard language, it is a mungrel language that has been developed on the back of many different languages. Anyone who attempts to speak a foriegn language should be applauded, not criticised, no matter how poor or great the attempt is.
she deserved all the awards she got
her performance was astonishing
i love marion :)
go girl!
je n'ai jamais et ne suis jamais inquiet à ce propos de nos talents des fois que tu n'es pas compris mon message précédent
t'inquiètes donc pas donc ^^ ;-)
its so weird how cate blanchett got a nomination in the oscars on the second movie of elizabeth, even though on rotten tomatoes (a critics site) gave it 32%, maybe it was her performance that got her there, its kinda the same thing with Nine, cause it got 37%, I dinno
