on Feb 07 2008 06:36 PM A remake of 8 1/2 is just wrong. It has to be said. I sadly have yet to see La Vie on Rose. :( (Reply to this) |
on Feb 07 2008 07:08 PM LOVE THIS WOMAN! La Vie en Rose is good, but the movie itself is nothing expectational or revolutionary. But Marion on the other hand... Wow. I really can't but it into words. It is a very well done biopic, and doesn't spell everything out to the viewer. One of the reasons I love foreign films; they treat their audiences as thinkers. And look at that make-up job! This striking, gorgeous woman is almost unrecognizable in the role. But Marion Cotillard defines this movie. She IS this movie. Remember her name, she'll be around for a very very long time. Sadly though, I think she'll lose the Oscar she deserves to Julie Christie. (Reply to this) |

on Feb 08 2008 11:44 AM A remake of 8 1/2 is beyond wrong. That movie is like a monument of cinema history. Just a godawful idea. Makes me sad. If that happens, what follows? La Dolce Vita? Casablanca? How sad would that be. (Reply to this) |

on Feb 08 2008 01:57 PM you guys do realize that NINE is not a remake of "8-1/2", but a film version of a Broadway musical from the early 80's that was inspired by "8-1/2" ? (Reply to this) |
on Feb 08 2008 01:58 PM i was blown away when i saw how she really looks compared to her in La Vie en Rose. they pretty much bashed her to death with the ugly stick for that movie lol (Reply to this) |
on Feb 08 2008 06:35 PM The forehead on this girl..... (Reply to this) |

on Feb 11 2008 09:13 AM It's not EXACTLY a remake of "8 1/2". It's a film version of a Broadway stage musical that's BASED on "8 1/2" called "Nine". (Reply to this) |
on Feb 11 2008 07:37 PM Easily the best female performance in a movie of the year. The others dont even come close. (Reply to this) |
on Feb 13 2008 05:28 PM In reply to this comment (#1561327) its not REALLY a remake of 8 1/2. nine is a musical BASED on 8 1/2 (Reply to this) |

on Feb 15 2008 03:23 PM Fell in love with her in A Good Year and will only see this movie because of her. You could put her in a Glitter remake and I'd watch it. (Reply to this) |
on Feb 17 2008 11:54 AM Marion Cotillard was also really good in A Very Long Engagement. Earning a Cesar nine minutes into it is saying something. She has as much charisma as Amy Adams from "Enchanted". Let's keep a steady eye on this talented actress. (Reply to this) |
on Mar 11 2008 06:22 AM MARION COTTIARD, (ONE:) I don't know you. (TWO:) I did not know you before you showed up in the OSCARS. (THREE:) That clip they showed of your movie, "La vie en Rose", when they were announcing your nomination was EXTREMELY LAME and uninteresting. (FOUR:) I don't think ANYONE is going to see "La vie en Rose", even after being threatened to be shot at blank point range. Everyone is going to wait to see it when it will come on TV and then deliberately MISS IT, going to eat a bad pizza instead. (FIVE:) They arseholes in the Oscars commitee gave you the BEST ACTRESS AWARD because you were the prettiest actress among the nomanies-- and because the dress you came in wearing on that night was more revealing than those of the other nominees. The HORNY HAGS at the Oscars commitee give the best Actress award to the actress that comes the NUDE'est--- This year it was better (atleast we didn't see your butt-crack as that of Swank's, for instance) in that department. But that's why they gave you that award. Nobody knows or CARES about this movie-- and that's deliberate. (Reply to this) |

on Mar 15 2008 03:23 AM In reply to this comment (#1626098) Explain Helen Mirren's win to me then? and the numerous wins for Glenn Close and Meryl Streep. Dude seriously you're being retarded. Cotillard did a fantastic job and the fact that she's not uneasy on the eyes can't be held against her. (Reply to this) |
