Marion Cotillard gives a speech from the heart...
I wanted to post Marion Cotillard's acceptance speech after she won the best actress Oscar for "La Vie en Rose" because it is just so sweet and sincere and from the heart. I'll never forget when several years back, Jennifer Connelly walked up with this piece of paper and read all these names with all the enthusiasm of someone reading a term paper in front of the class.
Marion was absolutely lovely in every way and i could not help but think about the first time I met her, on the red c arpet at the Los Angeles Film Festival Awards and I had never heard of her or her film. But the next month, when she got a Golden Globe nomination, we had a nice conversation when she called from Paris and she was thoroughly enchanting...
