Marion Cotillard @ Oscars 2008

Modern mermaid Marion Cotillard (in Jean Paul Gaultier) arrives at the 2008 Oscars held at the Kodak Theatre on Sunday in Hollywood.

Cotillard, 32, picked up Best Actress in a Leading Role for her work in La Vie En Rose.

She broke down in years the moment her name was announced. Marion managed to get this out before walking offstage: “Thank you life! Thank you love! It is true there are some angels in this city. Thank you! Thank you so much!”

Jewels by Chopard, clutch by Daniel Swarovski.

I love it when the underdog wins. In this age of empty celebrity and actresses being known more for the publicity hype than for actual real talent her win is so refreshing.

je suis tellement ravi qu’elle a gagne!!! bravo marion. je suis un peu decu guillaume n’etait pas a cote de toi!

Well said, homey!

Marion gave one of the best performance in oscar history.
Congrats!
very well-deserved!

For once the Oscars get it right. Marion gives the most incredible performance I have ever seen as Edith Piaf. Well done!

i am glad she won the oscar she deserved it, and she is so gorgeous, and i loved her hair do and her dress was absolulety beautiful.

So well deserved. I didn’t see this one coming. I just didnt’ think they would honor her in this category, thought it would be under foreign film or something.

No one deserved it more. Best dressed of the night too! She is so amazing.

Sheila you are an idiot. You should not comment of things you know nothing about. She has been in the French film industry for a very long time. Look it up smarty pants.

she seemed very likeable…watching her after-oscar interview and said she felt weird for a month of talking about herself because it’s not something she wants to do…she thinks that the movie should be able to just speak for itself…so all the campaigning is weird for her because they don’t do that in France.

Congrats to all the winners!

gorgeous dress, she’s beautiful

so to win an Oscar a beautiful actress has to play dress up ugly hmmm…..

Absolutely brilliant actress!!! I love her! Great performance! Can’t describe my joy when they announced her name! I literally had an ****** of the heart!!! :D

Congratulations to Marion! What a charming and delightful person. She is a welcome breath of fresh air to these ceremonies and I hope to see much more of her. (Can’t believe how well she has learned to speak English. Must be hard.)

Yayy I’m so happy she won! I’m french so I’m very proud she, as a french actress I love, could win an Oscar, it’s so huge! I’ve almost seen all of her movies and she’s the best ever, she has a real talent, which is being rare in France now… And this is totally random, but my name’s Marion too, so it makes me love her even more haha! Congrats!!

loved her in “Love me if you dare!” She’s a great actress and wowza, what a dress.

She looks super great ! <3

Wonderful , Breath Taking. see la mome its exuleratin i kid u not!

She deserved it more than anybody this year. She is authentic and her speech was beautiful. Congratulations to Marion!

all who think she didn’t deserve this win (shiela/zim) obviously have not yet seen the movie. Marion was amazing in the role of Edith… and for such a beautiful actress to go through that transformation was mesmerizing!

we all know she deserved the oscar , except for couple of jealous haters and it is so transparent where their jealousy coming from so we better ignor those two.

Ariel called…she wants her fin back.

Lovely actress…toatlly deserving and a refreshing and sweet sweet acceptance speech. So happy she won and NOT Julie Christie who had on a orange ribbon in solidarity with the ACLU to close the prison in Guantano bay……NO ONE wants your politics at the Oscars.

My favorite performance of the year!! So glad she was recognized.
She was utterly brilliant!! Still thought Angie should have been nominated too. Ellen Page needs to pay more dues. Why do they nominate so young? I disagree with that. Give her time to prove herself and build a body of work.
