La Mome

If you missed La Vie En Rose in the theater, the next time you’re likely to hear about it is at the Academy Awards. Marion Cotillard, the French actress who beat out hundreds to play the coveted role of iconic, petit, French sparrow Edith Piaf in Olivier Dahan’s biopic, produces, as Stephen Holden of The New York Times calls it, “the most astonishing immersion of one performer into the body and soul of another I’ve ever encountered in a film.” Other than Val’s Jim, we’ll ditto that.

  • The real Edith Piaf singing “La Vie En Rose”, “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien”, and “La Foule.” Not quite as good (in fact, down right painful) is Bijou Phillips singing “When I Hated Him” on Leno in ‘99.

Wha?! You’re not into dark, depressing, foreign, subtitled biopics about little known French drug addicts? Then try Wainy Days!!! David Wain + Elizabeth Banks + Josh Charles = deserving of LOLZ!!!

And if that doesn’t do it, here’s Marisa Miller on Carson Daly.

aw, Elizabeth Banks is getting old. crazy slut. love her.

that one bit was almos funnier than watchin THE TEN in its entirety

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, rice piaf

c’est vrai? quelle dommage.

bordering on au bon painful

Looks like a prettier version of MK Olsen in the second pic.

carson daly just passed orange and went directly into magenta. there isn’t a stranger looking man on television.

Where is this interview from? I would like to buy it!

it’s from fade in magazine, with steve carell on the cover.

Many thanks :)

Marion Cotillard was the only good thing about ‘A Good Year’. Spunky foreign chicks rock. There’s just something inifitely sexier about having an accent when you tell someone to fuck off. And when that someone is Russell Crowe, it’s only a bonus.
